Getting Started

The webqueue2 API is organized around REST. The API has resource oriented URLs, accepts and returns JSON encoded request bodies, can be modified via the query string and uses standard HTTP response codes and verbs.

You can use the webqueue2 API hosted at https://engineering.purdue.edu/webqueue/webqueue2/build/api or install it on your own machine.
