REST API v1

Warning: You are viewing the documentation for the old REST API. We recommend using version 2 of the REST API.

The REST API allows you to retrieve and update the data that is stored inside Copernica from out of your own website or app. You can write your own scripts that send requests and instructions to our servers to fetch this data or to update it. You can use this API to automatically synchronize the data in Copernica with your own system, without any human interference.
