Authorization

This Api is protect by authorization layer. If you are accessing through RapidApi, you dont need to worry about this as RapidApi will provide the necessary authorization.

To make a request to the API you will need to be a registered customer. The registration is a work in progress and access through RapidAPI is the only available so far.

Authorization Endpoint

curl --location --request POST 'https://theapitoolbox.com/oauth/token' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
	"grant_type" : "client_credentials",
    "client_id" : "",
    "client_secret" : ""
}'

Example Request

curl --location --request GET 'https://theapitoolbox.com/api/unitsofmeasure/mass?unitFrom=lbs&unitTo=kg&value=6' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'
--header 'Authorization: Bearer 

In this example, a call to the API to convert 6 lbs to kg

• URI - api/unitsofmeasure{physical_quantity}
• unitFrom - The unit you are making the convertion from
• unitTo - The unit you are making the convertion to
• value - the value you want to be converted

Example Response

{
    "data": 2.7215542200000002
