Legacy Data API

πŸ“˜

This API is a legacy project in maintenance mode and is not being actively developed by Lucid.

The Data API lets you bring any kind of data into Lucid and visualize it. Using a simple REST API, changes to your data can be reflected in the document in a near real-time. The Data API facilitates:

  • Uploading datasets to Lucid manually, from an integration, or via API
  • Processing datasets to match Lucid's common format
  • Updating stored data sources, either manually or automatically
  • Querying and retrieving specific data for use in a document
  • Managing and sharing access to stored data sources
  • Authenticating with external data sources

Using the Data API allows Lucid Enterprise customers to flexibly add data to their documents without sacrificing any of the real-time collaboration and granular access control features that are central to the Lucid platform.

Authentication

Every request using the Data API must be authenticated with valid user credentials. This API supports both OAuth 1.0 authentication and OAuth 2.0 authentication. Only user OAuth 2.0 tokens are valid when using OAuth 2.0 authentication for the Data API.
