Overview
When using our API, it's pretty common to make calls using Javascript. Below are some functions pre-written to make creating integrations with our API a little easier, especially for those less technical.
You can copy and paste these functions into any script file and then simply call apiRequestGET(), apiRequestPOST(), and apiRequestPUT() with the appropriate parameters.
Note: these examples are for v2 endpoints. You can modify them to support v3 requests by simply swapping out v2 for v3 in the url variable.
GET Request
function apiRequestGET(endpoint,apiKey) {
var url = 'https://api.observepoint.com/v2' + endpoint;
var options = {
'method': 'GET',
'headers': {
Authorization: 'api_key ' + apiKey
},
'contentType': 'application/json',
'muteHttpExceptions': true
}
var ret = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
return JSON.parse(ret);
}POST Request
function apiRequestPOST(endpoint,apiKey, payload) {
var url = 'https://api.observepoint.com/v2' + endpoint;
var options = {
'method': 'POST',
'headers': {
Authorization: 'api_key ' + apiKey
},
'payload': JSON.stringify(payload),
'contentType': 'application/json',
'muteHttpExceptions': true
}
var ret = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
return JSON.parse(ret);
}PUT Request
function apiRequestPUT(endpoint,apiKey, payload) {
var url = 'https://api.observepoint.com/v2' + endpoint;
var options = {
'method': 'PUT',
'headers': {
Authorization: 'api_key ' + apiKey
},
'payload': JSON.stringify(payload),
'contentType': 'application/json',
'muteHttpExceptions': true
}
var ret = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
return JSON.parse(ret);
}
