Using Apperate’s APIs

Apperate’s APIs are based on REST, have resource-oriented URLs, and return JSON-encoded responses and standard HTTP response codes.

The Apperate API Docs (https://iexcloud.io/docs/) site describes Apperate’s data endpoints and APIs.

The tutorials in this section compliment the API Docs by demonstrating how to complete different tasks using the APIs.

Here are some of the API-related topics.

Querying Data

The Data API’s GET /data endpoint returns data from the dataset you specify. The endpoint supports using windowing functions for Querying Data. Workspace Endpoints pages and IEX Cloud Financial Data pages describe each dataset’s GET /data endpoint parameters and response attributes.

The Example Request on each dataset’s Overview page demonstrates using the GET /data endpoint on that dataset.

Querying Data demonstrates applying windowing functions to the queries.

Other Data Operations

Instructions for creating, reading, updating, and deleting (CRUD) data records are in this section’s articles. Data API describes the endpoints.

Operations for Data-Related Entities

API instructions for managing datasets, sources, schedules, credentials, logs, and more are being applied to articles here.

Getting an API OAS Document

The GET /openapi-doc endpoint returns a JSON file that specifies the Apperate APIs per the OpenAPI Specification (OAS). You can generate a client SDK for your favorite language using the JSON file.
