Making a request

All URLs start with https://api.bimeapp.com/v2 excepts for authentication that is scoped by your subdomain https://youdomain.bimeapp.com/oauth/*SSL only. The path is suffixed with the API version. If we change the API in backward-incompatible ways, we'll bump the version marker and maintain stable support for the old URLs.

You also have to include the Content-Type header and the JSON data:

curl
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  https://api.bimeapp.com/v2/dashboards

That's all!

Authentication

You must use OAuth 2. This allows users to authorize your application to use Bime on their behalf.

Read the authentication guide to get started.

Output format

We support JSON for serialization of data. This means that you have to send Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8 when you're POSTing or PUTing data into Bime.

Use HTTP caching

You must make use of the HTTP freshness headers to lessen the load on our servers (and increase the speed of your application!). Most requests we return will include an ETag or Last-Modified header. When you first request a resource, store this value, and then submit them back to us on subsequent requests as If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since. If the resource hasn't changed, you'll see a 304 Not Modified response, which saves you the time and bandwidth of sending something you already have.

Handling errors

If Bime is having trouble, you might see a 5xx error. 500 means that the app is entirely down, but you might also see 502 Bad Gateway, 503 Service Unavailable, or 504 Gateway Timeout. It's your responsibility in all of these cases to retry your request later.

Rate limiting

You can perform up to 500 requests per 10 second period from the same IP address for the same account. If you exceed this limit, you'll get a 429 Too Many Requests response for subsequent requests. Check the Retry-After header to see how many seconds to wait before retrying the request.
