Source: https://cotlet.dev/docs/api/thought-industries/add_to_waitlist

Docs sections: [Get started](https://cotlet.dev/docs.md) · [REST API](https://cotlet.dev/docs/api.md) · [MCP](https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp.md) · [SDKs & CLI](https://cotlet.dev/docs/sdks.md) · [Integrations](https://cotlet.dev/docs/integrations.md)

Put a learner on the waitlist of content that has one.

Thought Industries API: https://cotlet.dev/docs/api/thought-industries.md

`POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/thought-industries/contents/{content_id}/waitlists`

Access: write. Confirm: waits for the user's OK before it runs.

Opens the learner profile, goes to the Access tab and adds the content under Waitlisted Content. Only content with an active waitlist can be added. The learner is enrolled only when someone buys the content or a manager provisions it, for example with enroll_learner. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `learner` | string | yes | Learner email or learner_id from list_learners. |
| `content_id` | string | yes | Course or other content ID from list_courses. |
