Full API documentation is available on the PacketFabric site
Full examples and and walkthroughs are available on Read The Docs.
The first thing you need to do to get started is connect to the API. You can accomplish this by either using session tokens and a cookie or by using an API key and authentication hash.
curl -H 'Cookie: session_token=abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789' \
https://api.packetfabric.com/interfaces/physical
API-key requests are made by appending api_key and auth_hash parameters to the query string.
http://api.packetfabric.com/interfaces/physical?api_key=1-0123456789ABCDEF&auth_hash=kr2r6W4SIlje27mk3/+v0cNyr9iVBjRGBcdmQ0+Mc3A=
auth_hash is computed by taking the HMAC of your secret key and the query string using SHA256.
If you are using the API and hash method the functions below will help you generate the hash correctly.
import urllib
import hashlib
import hmac
import base64
api_key = '1-0123456789ABCDEF'
api_secret_key = '0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF'
query_string = 'api_key=' + api_key
hash = hmac.new(api_secret_key, query_string, hashlib.sha256).digest()
hash = base64.b64encode(hash)
hash = urllib.quote_plus(hash)
url = 'https://api.packetfabric.com/interfaces/physical?{}&auth_hash={}'.format(query_string, hash)

<?php
$api_key = '1-0123456789ABCDEF';
$api_secret_key = '0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF';
$query_string = "api_key=$api_key";
$hash = hash_hmac('sha256', $query_string, $api_secret_key, TRUE);
$hash = base64_encode($hash);
$hash = urlencode($hash);
$url = "https://api.packetfabric.com/interfaces/physical?$query_string&auth_hash=$hash";
// https://api.packetfabric.com/interfaces/physical?api_key=1-0123456789ABCDEF&auth_hash=BmoewII%2FOUyIX%2BjMXhHxLAlTc6XRXLobVVJ9DWUPP3Y%3D
