JSON Format

If JSON is preferred, set the standard http header Accept to the value application/json and the Slingshot API server will send all non-binary responses to the client in JSON format.

The example below shows how to can set the Accept header in code.

C#​

HttpWebRequest httpWebRequest;
httpWebRequest =
    WebRequest.Create(new Uri("https://api.ravenslingshot.com/FieldHubs"))
    as HttpWebRequest;
httpWebRequest.Accept = "application/json";
httpWebRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Http.Get;
