BASE-URL
The below examples contain a
BASE-URL
placeholder. Please refer to the HTTP Endpoints section to get the base URL relevant to your deployment.curl is a command-line tool that allows you to make HTTP requests easily, which is useful for playing around with an API. It usually comes standard on Linux and OS X, and for Windows you can download it here from the official website (choose *Win32*). The
-u
parameter in the examples below specify the username and password for authentication (refer to the Enabling the API section).Sample request:
HTTP
curl
ruby
GET BASE-URL/api/v4/533bda53027894f69b001055/objects/task.json
curl "BASE-URL/api/v4/533bda53027894f69b001055/objects/task.json" \
-u "533bda53027894f69b001055:7Ajj5htRY1uzw7b4w23V"
require 'rest-client'
journey = RestClient::Resource.new "BASE-URL/api/v4", "533bda53027894f69b001055", "7Ajj5htRY1uzw7b4w23V"
