Wuala API (Alpha)

Short Introduction

The API accepts REST requests. The current release supports only HTTP GET requests. PUT, POST or DELETE is not yet supported.

The API server is available at http://api.wuala.com. API calls looks as follows: http://api.wuala.com/command/wuala-item. A valid example would be http://api.wuala.com/metadata/Roger (hint: open this URL in your webbrowser to see the result).

The response type depends on the request:

• thumbnail: This API call enables you to fetch thumbnails from Wuala items. The response type is image/jpeg.
• contents: This call returns the item content, e.g. a pdf. The response type depends on the item type. Please use content.wuala.com to donwload files. api.wuala.com does for performance reasons not accept contents requests.
• all other requests return valid XML. JSON is planned but not yet supported.

Only read access to public content or password shared content is possible.
