    Ah, thanks for clarifying. In that case, I believe the setting you're looking for is:

    contest.ratings.primary_type

     

    So putting it all together, you call might look something like:

    /boards/id/<CONTEST ID>/settings/name/contest.ratings.primary_type

     In the case of Kudos, your response will look like:

    <response status="success">
<value type="string">kudos</value>
</response>

     In the case of 1-5 stars, your response will look like:

    <response status="success">
<value type="string">contest_ratings</value>
</response>

Thanks Adam, kudos are enabled and will stay enabled, but there is this option for contests in the contest admin:

which, when set to '1-5 Star ratings' starts causing the kudos/leaderboard call to return "303 Permission Denied".

 

The FreeMarker attempt/recover block is definitely an option we're going to check. Thanks!
