1,000,000+ Recipe and Grocery List API (v2)
api:bigoven.com · vpartner · source: apis.guru
Documentation This is the documentation for the partner endpoint of the BigOven Recipe and Grocery List API. The update brings with it Swagger-based documentation. Swagger is an emerging standard for describing REST-based APIs, and with this Swagger-compliant endpoint (above), you can make ready-to-go interface libraries for your code via swagger-codegen. For instance, it's easy to generate libraries for Node.js, Java, Ruby, ASP.NET MVC, jQuery, php and more! You can also try out the endpoint calls with your own api key right here on this page. Be sure to enter your api key above to use the "Try it out!" buttons on this page. Start Here Developers new to the BigOven API should start with this version, not with the legacy API. We'll be making improvements to this API over time, and doing only bug fixes on the v1 API. To pretend you're a BigOven user (for instance, to get your recently viewed recipes or your grocery list), you need to pass in Basic Authentication information in the header, just as with the v1 API. We do now require that you make all calls via https. You need to pass your api key in with every call, though this can now be done on the header (send a request header "X-BigOven-API-Key" set to your api key value, e.g., Request["X-BigOven-API-Key"]="your-key-here".) Migration Notes For existing partners, we encourage you to migrate, and while at this writing we have no hard-and-fast termination date for the v1 API, we strongly prefer that you migrate by January 1, 20
