ESA 2021 Data Help Desk

Aug 2 2021 | 8:00am - Aug 6 2021 | 5:00pm MDT

Hosted By:

Ecological Society of America (ESA)

Overview

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!

Links to Resources

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
Using API in R Using the NEON API in R Tutorial
Using API in Python Introduction to NEON API in Python Tutorial
Using API in Bash What is the curl Command for API Calls? - links to EveryDeveloper.com
API Wrapper - R Use the neonUtilities Package to Access NEON Data
API Wrapper - Python Using neonUtilities in Python
API Token About Rate Limiting and Using API Tokens with neonUtilities
 # 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
