The Miranda API
Revision as of 11:06, 11 January 2019 by GabrielleLinnell (talk | contribs)
Miranda has a web interface available at collections.folger.edu/, but that's not all. Our interface relies upon a GraphQL API available to all comers at https://collections.folger.edu/graphql.
An API, or Application Programming Interface, is a way for programs to talk to each other. (Or, sometimes, for dedicated individuals to talk to computer programs.) GraphQL offers an approach to APIs that lets the requestor define what is returned.
Read our API guide written by the technical team at ParsonsTKO. Please note: This version was written in accompaniment to our Miranda beta launch, and represents work done so far. It is not final documentation.
