Access the data

RERO ILS's API are accessed with the following URL template:

https://<instance>/api/<ressource>

Resources can be accessed via HTTP requests in the usual way, such as :

  • a web browser
  • curl or similar tools
  • your own scripts

Some resources are publicly accessible, such as documents (api/documents) or items (api/items). Others require authentication, such as patrons (api/patrons), loans (api/loans) or circulation policies (api/circ_policies). To obtain an API token for access to protected resources, contact the system administrator of your RERO ILS installation.
