Is UW Madison - Course Search & Enroll + safe?
UW Madison - Course Search & Enroll + sends selected course identifiers to Madgrades with a bundled API token.
When you view courses on enroll.wisc.edu, the extension parses the course subject and number and asks its background script for Madgrades data. That script queries api.madgrades.com/v1/courses with an embedded Authorization token and included credentials, then returns grade data to the page.
