CERN Analysis Preservation offers a REST API to access the service
17
- independently from the web interface. If you want to automate specific tasks
18
- or create your own data interface, you can use the API to do so
17
+ independently from the web interface. This allows users to automate specific
18
+ tasks or create their own data interface, using simple HTTP calls.

- The CAP API is built on HTTP. Our API is RESTful. It has predictable
24
- resource URLs. It returns HTTP response codes to indicate errors. It also
25
- accepts and returns JSON in the HTTP body. You can use your favorite
26
- HTTP/REST library for your programming language to use CAP's API, or you can
27
- use one of our SDKs (CLI clients) (currently available in Python).
