Presentation
Public and Private keys
Upon signing up to Woosmap, you will have access to the API key management interface in each project.
| key | Description |
|---|---|
| private_key1 | A private key is used for server api calls (POST, PUT and DELETE) where modification of the data occurs. |
| key | A public key is used client side to fetch your project data. |
REST API
Where possible the API strives to use appropriate HTTP verbs for each action.
| Verb | Description |
|---|---|
GET |
Used for retrieving resources. |
POST |
Used for creating resources. |
PUT |
Used for replacing resources or collections. |
DELETE |
Used for deleting resources. |
Error Handling
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
20X |
Indicates success or object creation. |
403 |
if Unauthorized |
400 |
if the request data is wrong. |
Additionally the answer might contain a message key, with a human error message as the value.
Structure of requests
All data sent and received are in JSON format.
Data sent
The data sent through POST and PUT methods should be in the following format:
{
"stores": [{"storeId": "0"...}]
}
Each element of the stores array must be in the format explained here .
Managing assets data
The restrictions on POST and PUT on storeIds are made to ensure identifier stability.
Create assets data
Used to create assets in batch.
Warning: storeId must not exist when using POST method, if one store already exists, the batch will be refused.
curl -X POST \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d @data.json \
'https://api.woosmap.com/stores?private_key={private_key}'
Updating assets data
Used to update assets in batch.
Warning: storeId must exist when using PUT method, if one asset does not exist, the batch will be refused.
curl -X PUT \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d @data.json \
'https://api.woosmap.com/stores?private_key={private_key}'
Deleting assets
You can delete one or more assets using the following url, the storeId is the id you defined. To delete several assets, use the comma as a separator.
curl -X DELETE \
'https://api.woosmap.com/stores/?query=idstore:\[{storeId1},{storeId2}\]&private_key={private_key}'
Replace all assets
You can replace all assets of a Project using the following url.
curl -X POST \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d @data.json \
'https://api.woosmap.com/stores/replace?private_key={private_key}'
This command will delete all previous assets and import assets from the json file.
During the operation previous assets could always be displayed on map.
If the import failed previous assets will not be deleted.
Usage limits
The following usage limits are in place for the Data API on the stores request:
- Maximum of 10 queries per second (QPS) per Project (so possibly the sum of client-side and server-side queries)
-
The private key holds destructive power hence it should remain private, the public key can be made public since it’s used client side. ↩
