Using APIs

[Kemik]

Hi guys,

Does anyone have a good, beginners guide to using APIs with php?

I need to call an API to get the data, then send it via a different API to effectively integrate two websites. I would then setup cPanel to use CURL and call the php script every night, pushing the data from one site to the other.

Thanks!

Assuming the third party doesn't provide an SDK to use with their API, then you appear to already have your answer; use cURL

Curl I use in coanel though is just setting a time and enter the URL. I don't really know how to use curl. The documentation for the APi just references the URL to call and then what is returned.
