the Usergrid, you’ll need an Usergrid account. +(Before reading this, you should already be familiar with what Usergrid +can do to support your apps. If you’re still curious about that, you +might want to read Usergrid features first.)</p> +<p>With an account, you get the following useful things:</p> +<ul class="simple"> +<li>A sandbox application you can try things with (we automatically +create one for you with your new account). The sandbox is a +partitioned area of the data store where you can add example data and +try out API calls. The sandbox isn’t secure, but it’s handy to play +in. For more about the sandbox, see “Using Your Application Sandbox”.</li> +<li>The ability to create more applications (in addition to the sandbox). +You can (and should!) make these as secure as you need to. These are +the applications that you’ll have behind the apps you make available +to your users.</li> +<li>Access to the Admin Portal. In the portal, you can do the following: +** Create and manage applications. ** Manage your app’s users, +including access levels. ** Manage the data in your app. ** +Manage app features, including push notifications, activities, +analytics, and so on. ** Try out API calls with a shell command +window. ** To create an Usergrid account and see a very short +tutorial to get started with, go to the get started page.</li> +</ul> +<div class="section" id="next-steps"> +<h2>Next steps<a class="headerlink" href="#next-steps" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> +<p>Ready to learn and do more?</p> +<ul class="simple"> +<li>Install an SDK that will be most useful for your application +environment.

class="headerlink" href="#using-the-api" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1> +<p>Usergrid uses a pure REST (Representational State Transfer) API built as +a collection of resources. Resource locations are described by paths +that are related intrinsically to collections and entities in +collections.</p> +<p>This section gives several examples of how to construct API requests. To +focus on what’s important, the examples use an abbreviated path that +starts after the application UUID, or application name. For example, +instead of giving a fully qualified path name as in:</p> +<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>https://api.usergrid.com/your-org/your-app/users +</pre></div> +</div> +<p>the example simply lists this:</p> +<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>/users +</pre></div> +</div> +<div class="section" id="supported-http-methods"> +<h2>Supported HTTP methods<a class="headerlink" href="#supported-http-methods" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> +<p>When building a REST API, the challenge is to represent the data and the +action upon the data as a path to a resource that can be created, +retrieved, updated, or deleted. The HTTP methods POST, GET, PUT, and +DELETE correspond to the actions that are applied to resources.</p> +</div> +<div class="section" id="base-url"> +<h2>Base URL<a class="headerlink" href="#base-url" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> +<p>The base url for all requests made to Usergrid depends on where you have +Usergrid installed.
