// The ID of the template.
"id": 1,
// The ID of the Course the template belongs to.
"course_id": 2,
// Time when the last export was completed
"last_export_completed_at": "2013-08-28T23:59:00-06:00"
}
A BlueprintMigration object looks like:
{
// The ID of the migration.
"id": 1,
// The ID of the template the migration belongs to.
"template_id": 2,
// The ID of the user who queued the migration.
"user_id": 3,
// Current state of the content migration: queued, exporting, imports_queued,
// completed, exports_failed, imports_failed
"workflow_state": "running",
// Time when the migration was queued
"created_at": "2013-08-28T23:59:00-06:00",
// Time when the exports begun
"exports_started_at": "2013-08-28T23:59:00-06:00",
// Time when the exports were completed and imports were queued
"imports_queued_at": "2013-08-28T23:59:00-06:00",

GET /api/v1/courses/:course_id/blueprint_templates/:template_id
Using 'default' as the template_id should suffice for the current implmentation (as there should be only one template per course). However, using specific template ids may become necessary in the future
