Requests and Payloads

Below is a list of query strings and payloads that can be sent from the client to the server along with a list of common server responses

Login Payload

Example

   p70=joe.blow@test.com&p80=mypassword&p90=test.intelligencebank.com

would request a login to the test.intelligencebank.com site with the user joe.blow@test.com.

Note this payload is simple key/value pairs. The client MUST use POST to send this payload to the Login URL. You SHOULD use the following header

    Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded 

Upon successful completion of this operation, the server SHOULD return the Login Response. If the operation is not successful, the server MUST return the appropriate HTTP status code and the Error Response.

Reset Payload

Example

   p70=joe.blow@test.com&p90=test.intelligencebank.com

would request the server to send a password reset email to be sent to joe.blow@test.com. If the user is valid then an email will be sent to that address.

Note this payload is simple key/value pairs. The client MUST use POST to send this payload to the Reset URL. You SHOULD use the following header

    Content-Type: application/x-ww-form-urlencoded 

Upon successful completion of this operation, the server SHOULD return the No Content Response. If the operation is not successful, the server MUST return the appropriate HTTP status code and the Error Response.

Root Folder Request

?p10={apikey}&p20={useruuid}

Example

   p10=adsferdftfgryfhgutjgiyhkgjhutyrgdnbvjhj&p20=3nj34hvdsjds8dnfnfd87bhbvuef

would request the contents of the root folder. This will contain metadata for all the folders with the root folder and will allow the client to navigate the underlying folder structure.

Note this is a query string and not a payload. The client MUST append this string to the Resources URL. The client MUST use GET when executing this request.

Upon successful completion of this operation, the server SHOULD return the Folder Response. If the operation is not successful, the server MUST return the appropriate HTTP status code and the Error Response.

Folder Request

?p10={apikey}&p20={useruuid}&folderuuid={folder uuid}&skip={starting position}&limit={number of resources to return}

Example

       p10=adsferdftfgryfhgutjgiyhkgjhutyrgdnbvjhj&p20=3nj34hvdsjds8dnfnfd87bhbvuef&folderuuid=hg3v23ghj4hb34hhjhjg34

would request the contents of the folder with that folderuuid. The response will contain metadata for all the folders and resources within  the folder.

If the limit parameter is included in the request then the number of resources returned will be the value of the limit parameter, starting from the first resource if their is no skip value present, or from the value of the skip parameter if it is present.

If the skip parameter is included in the request and the limit parameter is not then the resources returned will be those starting from the skip value and ending at the last resource.

The skip value is zero indexed based i.e. the first resource resides at skip=0. If the skip parameter is not included in the request then the starting point will be as if a skip value of 0 was included. If the skip value is larger than the number of resources in the folder then no resource element will be returned. 

Note this is a query string and not a payload. The client MUST append this string to the Resources URL. The client MUST include the p10, p20 and folderuuid parameters. The client MAY include the skip and/or the limit parameters. The client MUST use GET when executing this request.

Upon successful completion of this operation, the server SHOULD return the Folder Response. If the operation is not successful, the server MUST return the appropriate HTTP status code and the Error Response.

Resource Request

?p10={apikey}&p20={useruuid}&fileuuid={resource uuid}&version={ version number }&ext={ file extension }&preview=true&size={ percentage of original file size }&cropwidth={ cropped output width }&cropheight={ cropped output height }&cropx={ x coordinate to start the crop }&cropy={ y coordinate to start the crop }&compression={ compression quality }&compressiontype={ type of compression }

Examples

       p10=adsferdftfgryfhgutjgiyhkgjhutyrgdnbvjhj&p20=3nj34hvdsjds8dnfnfd87bhbvuef
            &fileuuid=hg3v23ghj4hb34hhjhjg34

        p10=adsferdftfgryfhgutjgiyhkgjhutyrgdnbvjhj&p20=3nj34hvdsjds8dnfnfd87bhbvuef
            &fileuuid=hg3v23ghj4hb34hhjhjg34&compression=80&compressiontype=10 

would request to download the file with that fileuuid compressed at 80% using JPEG lossless compression

        p10=adsferdftfgryfhgutjgiyhkgjhutyrgdnbvjhj&p20=3nj34hvdsjds8dnfnfd87bhbvuef
            &fileuuid=hg3v23ghj4hb34hhjhjg34&cropwidth=200&cropheight=200&cropx=0&cropy=0

corner of the image


        p10=adsferdftfgryfhgutjgiyhkgjhutyrgdnbvjhj&p20=3nj34hvdsjds8dnfnfd87bhbvuef
            &fileuuid=hg3v23ghj4hb34hhjhjg34&cropwidth=200&cropheight=200&compression=50
            &compressiontype=10&fileinfo=true    

would request the estimated file size of the file with that fileuuid if it was to be cropped to 200x200px,  
compressed at 50% using JPEG losslesscompression

Mandatory parameters: p10, p20, fileuuid

Note this is a query string and not a payload. The client MUST append this string to the Resources URL. The client MUST use GET when executing this request.

Notes:

  1. If the version number is provided then that version's file will be downloaded. If the provided version number is not found then a  'not found' response will be provided
  2. If no version parameter is provided then the latest or current file version is downloaded.
  3. If the preview=true parameter is set then the returned image will be a png version of the original.
  4. If cropping an image, the following 4 parameters must be specified: cropwidth, cropheight, cropx and cropy
  5. If size parameter is included in a URL which also contains cropping parameters, the cropping parameters (cropwidth, cropheight, cropx and cropy) need to be specified at the same percentage as the size parameters.
    e.g. The following two snippets would produce the same target part of the image just at different dimensions -Without the size parameter: &cropwidth=960&cropheight=600&cropx=800&cropy=500                                       With the size parameter set to 50%: &cropwidth=480&cropheight=300&cropx=400&cropy=250&size=50
  6. Types  of compression:
    • 1 = No compression
    • 2 = BZIP2 (Lossless Compression)
    • 8 = JPEG (Lossy Compression)
    • 10 = JPEG (Lossless Compression)
    • 11 = LZW (Lemple-Zif-Welch) (Lossless Compression)
    • 12 = Run-Length Encoding (Lossless Compression)
    • 13 = ZIP (Lossless Compression)

Upon successful completion of this operation, the server SHOULD return the requested file. If the operation is not successful, the server MUST return the appropriate HTTP status code and the Error Response.
