The RoadData API is served by the Manager. The API allows developers to retrieve data from the platform’s System DB. In general, the RoadData API uses HTTP GET requests with JSON responses.

Authentication

Request authentication is performed via APIKey. API requests without authentication will fail. User needs to request an identity token from the /api/v1/auth endpoint.

Request POST /api/v1/auth

Provide valid login/password to receive your token.

curl -v -X POST \
    'http://192.168.0.50:8006/api/v1/auth' \
    -H 'content-type: application/json' \
    -d '{"username": "admin", "password": "12345"}'

Response JSON

{
  "APIKey":"62c587f46ae3c08671d09472"
}

Use this API key every time you send API request.

curl -v -X GET \
  'http://192.168.0.50:8006/api/v1/servers' \
  -H 'APIKey: 62c587f46ae3c08671d09472'
