API Usage

Request and Response Formats

The current version of the API only support JSON objects for requests and responses. Other request and response types such as XML may be supported in the future.

Specifying API Version

The present version of the API does not require any kind of user auth (to be implemented in a future sprint); however, users are able to request resources via any of the following three methods:

  • Specify the API version number by the endpoint:
 curl -X GET /path/to/api/v1/skills
  • Specify a custom header api-version as a part of the request:
curl -H "api-version: 1" -X GET /path/to/api/skills
  • Specify the version number a part of the Accept header:
curl -H "Accept: application/vnd.openskills.v1+json" -X GET /path/to/api/skills"

Note that the URL redirects for handling the redirects to the appropriate API version via headers requires further configuration before being made active. For testing purposes, users are encouraged to use the first method shown.
