Introduction
The MyTimeTable API will allow you to make use of the features provided by the MyTimeTable web interface.
The resources support both JSON and XML. To switch from JSON to XML, just add .xml after the resource name in any of the request URLs.
OAuth
To set up OAuth, follow these steps:
- Visit http://demo.eveoh.nl/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=test&redirect_uri=http://localhost
- You will be prompted to log in. After logging in the application will request for your permission to access your personal timetable. Click Allow.
- After being redirected the URL will contain ?code=XXXXXX. Copy this code.
Open a Terminal window and enter the following command (replace XXXXXX with your personal code from step 3):
curl -d 'grant_type=authorization_code&client_id=test&client_secret=test&code=XXXXXX&redirect_uri=http://localhost' http://demo.eveoh.nl/oauth/token
- The command will return an access token. This token will allow you to request resources from the API.
