Developer API – REST Interface

Calling the EpikTube APIs through REST interface is very easy. All you have to do is make an HTTP request of the REST endpoint:

http://www.epiktube.xyz/api2_rest

So, requests take this form:

http://www.epiktube.xyz/api2_rest?api_parameter1=value1&api_parameter2=value2&api_parameterN=valueN

This is an example REST call:

http://www.epiktube.xyz/api2_rest?method=epiktube.users.get_profile&user=EPIKTUBE_USER_NAME

The response to this API call will be in the following form:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<ut_response status="ok">

    <user_profile>

        <first_name>EpikTube</first_name>

        <last_name>User</last_name>

        <about_me>EpikTube rocks!!</about_me>

        <age>30</age>

        <video_upload_count>7</video_upload_count>

        .... and more ....

    </user_profile>

</ut_response>

The easiest way to perform a quick test of a REST-style API call is to request the URL through your favorite web browser and examine the XML output.
