Data Types and Response Formats

The API has been designed with standards at its core. The following promises are kept throughout all endpoints:

• With very few exceptions, numbers are numbers and not strings. The API adheres strictly to the most natural representation of the underlying data, and null is always returned for optional properties which have not yet been assigned a value.

• Most endpoints return the requested target resource, however, there are some exceptions, such as deleting a resource, which will simply respond with a 200 and no body. To the extent possible, the API is both resource-driven and oriented.
