Quickstart
Learn how to create collections, insert resources, and query them using cURL in just a few minutes.
Before you begin!
Visit the Wetrocloud console to get your API key. If you have trouble obtaining it, refer to this guide.
Introduction
This guide is for developers looking to get started with the WetroCloud API quickly. Using simple cURL commands, you’ll learn how to:
- Create a collection
- Insert resources into the collection
- Query resources for answers
- Categorize resources
Prerequisites:
- An API key from the Wetrocloud Console
By the end, you’ll have queried your first resource using Wetrocloud API.
Important!
Always prefix your API key with Token (including a space). Example: Token YOUR_API_KEY. Requests without this format will be rejected.
Create a Collection
First, create a collection_id to group your resources.
List all available collections
After creating a collection, you can get all your available collections on wetrocloud.
Insert a Resource into the Collection
Add a resource to your collection using the collection_id you created earlier
Query a Resource
Query your resource using the collection_id created earlier by providing a query in the request_query field.
To keep things simple we made use of the /query/ endpoint without structured output
Categorize a Resource
This endpoint is used to delete a collection
Great, that was easy!
