A
Product ID is the identifier for a given product.
- Product IDs can be found by clicking the info button in the UI, or by checking the product catalog.
- A product ID can optionally contain an exact date and time, formatted as [Product ID]_YYYYMMDD_hhmmss. Full year, month, day, hour, minute, and second are required.
- A product ID can optionally contain an opacity value suffix formatted as [Product ID].opacity. Opacity ranges from 0 (transparent) to 100 (opaque).
- Most API calls support lists of product IDs separated by commas.
Times can be absolute or relative.
- Absolute times are formatted as YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm[:ss]. Full year, month, day, hour, and minute are required; seconds are optional.
- Relative times are formatted as [-]#(dhmst), indicating a (possibly negative) offset from the anchor time. Each of dhmst specifies Days, Hours, Minutes, Seconds, and Timesteps respectively.
- Time ranges are specified as [time start],[time end].
NOTE: Most API calls allow time to be specified using the
time keyword with an arbitrary date and time. The preferred, more efficient way to specify time is to use the
products keyword form
[Product ID]_[YYYYMMDD]_[hhmmss], which requests the exact date and time given without the need to look up the nearest time for each individual request.
- Use the products API to get a list of available times for a given set of products.
- Use the time or latest API to get the nearest available or latest time for a given set of products and nominal time.
See below for examples.
