This page contains links and information relevant to the NEON Data Help Desk (DHD) at the Ecological Society of America (ESA) 2021 annual scientific conference. Here we link to several helpful resources for working with APIs in the R, Python, and Bash programming languages. Most of these examples are specific to NEON data, but you can adapt these lines of code for your repository of interest!
| Topic | Resource |
|---|---|
| Intro to APIs | See Erica Krimmel's great Intro to APIs talk from the 2020 DHD here |
| Endpoints & Targets | NEON API Endpoints Turorial |

# Note that Windows users may need to use curl.exe instead of just curl
# to show the JSON response to the curl request, use -v (verbose)
curl -v https://data.neonscience.org/api/v0/data/DP1.10003.001/WOOD/2015-07
# or you can save the JSON response to a file (out.json) using the -o (output) option
curl -o out.json https://data.neonscience.org/api/v0/data/DP1.10003.001/WOOD/2015-07
