Description

Studio currently has an API endpoint that uses the values of the various backend waffle flags so that they can be used to make experience decisions in the authoring frontend.

See cms/djangoapps/contentstore/rest_api/v1/serializers/course_waffle_flags.py for the relevant serializer.

As we drop the backend waffle flags, we're setting the return values for the data to the new final value. Before this work can be completed, we should drop the useless API data from the api and update any frontends consuming it.

relevant api: api
relevant serializer having some hard coded values: serializer
