REST API - HTTP GET Method

Updated by Stefenie Stockbridge

The HTTP GET method lets you submit a request with all request data included in the URI. The response includes the requested information in the body of the response.

Python Example

def list_projects():
        # obtain a token from our get_token() function
        token = get_token()
	
        # build the resource URI
        resource_uri = 'https://production.blueprintcloud.com/api/v1/projects'
	
        # build the request header
        request_header={
                'Authorization' : 'BlueprintToken ' + token,
                'Accept' : 'application/json'
        }
	
        # specify the URI parameters
        uri_parameters_list={
                'Location' : 'True'
        }
	
        # create the request uri
        request_uri = resource_uri + '?' + urllib.parse.urlencode(uri_parameters_list)
        output_requesturi(request_uri)
	
        # submit the request using HTTP GET method
        response = requests.get(request_uri, headers=request_header)
        return response

How did we do?
