curl requests for getting data

curl 'https://covidapi.ismood.com/regions/?country_name=greece' -H 'Authorization: Basic ZmFkaWw6aXNjb3Y0NTZA'

curl 'https://covidapi.ismood.com/daily-info/?country_name=greece' -H 'Authorization: Basic ZmFkaWw6aXNjb3Y0NTZA'

is this a user of covid19-gr-json or are you suggesting to use this a source ?

[adamkalis]

Oops sorry I wasn't clear, I suggest use these data as source. they seem to be kind of official as these data are visualized in a frame at https://covid19.gov.gr/covid19-live-analytics/

[kargig]

looks like they took the service down, curl requests return 500 for a few days now

oh well, yet another reason we need openly accessible data :)

[adamkalis]

:) I fully agree with the need of openly accessible data, it's a shame that you need to scrap them from pdfs.

By the way the service is still up, they've just added one extra check for the referrer so adding
-H 'Referer: https://covid19live.ismood.com/' on the curl commands will make them work again. So, the new curl commands are these:

curl 'https://covidapi.ismood.com/regions/?country_name=greece' -H 'Authorization: Basic ZmFkaWw6aXNjb3Y0NTZA' -H 'Referer: https://covid19live.ismood.com/'

curl 'https://covidapi.ismood.com/total-info/?country_name=greece' -H 'Authorization: Basic ZmFkaWw6aXNjb3Y0NTZA' -H 'Referer: https://covid19live.ismood.com/'

curl 'https://covidapi.ismood.com/daily-info/?country_name=greece' -H 'Authorization: Basic ZmFkaWw6aXNjb3Y0NTZA' -H 'Referer: https://covid19live.ismood.com/'

Just to be clear I suggest these as an alternative (semi-official) source for confirmation of the official data.
