To do a simple search for Features and Events in HER, one must append to the base url:
Line 17: Line 20:
xxx cmd=search&type=column
Line 19: Line 22:

In addition to the command (cmd), one must specify which event type to search for. For all event types, use **

{{{
cmd=search&type=column&event_type=**
}}}

For some but not all event types, use a comma delimited list of two-letter abbreviations (see http://www.lmsal.com/helio-informatics/hpkb/VOEvent_Spec.html for full list of event types). E.g. the following specifies that one wishes to search for active regions, flares and emerging flux regions:

{{{
cmd=search&type=column&event_type=ar,fl,ef
}}}

One must also provide a time window using event_starttime and event_endtime

{{{
cmd=search&type=column&event_type=ar,fl,ef&&event_starttime=2007-04-29T00:00:00&event_endtime=2007-05-07T00:00:00
}}}

To get results in XML format, set ''cosec=1''

{{{
cmd=search&type=column&event_type=ar,fl,ef&&event_starttime=2007-04-29T00:00:00&event_endtime=2007-05-07T00:00:00&cosec=1
}}}

Heliophysics Events Knowledgebase API

Third party clients can communicate with the Heliophysics Events Knowledgebase (HER) via our web API. Usage of an API function amounts to using HTTP to fetch a web document. The base url for all API calls is (including the question mark)

Following the url base, one can append a list of keywords to specify the type of command and options for that specific command.
