Quickstart

This guide will help you get started with the ShkolaFit API. We'll walk you through setting up an API client and making your first API request. After that, we’ll point you to the right resources to help you explore and fully utilize our powerful REST API.

Choose your client

To begin using the ShkolaFit API, you'll need to choose an API client. We provide support for cURL, JavaScript, Python, and PHP clients. Below are the installation steps for each.

# cURL is likely pre-installed on your system
curl --version

Making your first API request

After installing your client, you’re ready to make your first API call to ShkolaFit. Below is an example of sending a GET request to the Schools endpoint to retrieve a list of schools. In the cURL example, the results are limited to 10 schools.

curl -G https://api.shkolafit.com/v1/fetchMyData \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {tokenID}"

Response Example

{
  "apirequest": 
  {
    "tid": "{tokenID}",
    "trequestmade": "fetchMyData",
    "ttimemade": "2025-01-22T08:30:00Z",
    "trequestcost": 1
  },

  "requestresult": 
  {
    "data": 
    {
      "uid": "abc123",
      "uname": "John Doe",
      "email": "johndoe@example.com",
      "utype": "regular",
      "created_at": "2025-01-01T12:00:00Z"
    }
  }
}

This ensures you can verify your token and retrieve your account details.
