REST Endpoints

Request/Response Formats

All of the endpoints below have the ability to produce and consume both XML and JSON. To ensure that you are receiving JSON in a response, ensure that this request HTTP header is set:

Accept: application/json

To tell the endpoint that you are sending it JSON (like in a PUT or POST), use this HTTP header:

Content-Type: application/json

And of course, to ensure that all requests/responses are in JSON, use both of those headers combined:

Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
