Introduction

The Data Catalogue HTTP API allows you to fetch data stored in the Quix platform. You can use it for exploring the platform, prototyping applications, or working with stored data in any language with HTTP capabilities.

The API is fully described in our Swagger documentation. Read on for a guide to using the API, including real-world examples you can execute from your language of choice, or via the command line using curl.

Preparation

Before using any of the endpoints, you’ll need to know how to authenticate your requests and how to form a typical request to the API.

You’ll also need to have some data stored in the Quix platform for API use to be meaningful. You can use any Source of our Quix Library to do this using the Quix portal.
