Animal by ID

[Vivian van Zyl]

Hi There ~

How would I get just a single animal by ID? I assume it's a get call, but how is the query string configured to get a single animal by its ID returned by a search?

Example

I did a search and got a few Dogs, but would like to retrieve just this one specific dogs data at a later time:

{

    "meta": {

        "count": 16,

        "countReturned": 16,

        "pageReturned": 1,

        "limit": 25,

        "pages": 1,

        "transactionId": "mevOZXoEaddz"

    },

    "data": [

        {

            "type": "animals",

            "id": "16995700",

            "attributes": {

                "distance": 2.99,

                "isAdoptionPending": false,

                "ageGroup": "Adult",

                "isBirthDateExact": false,

                "breedString": "Shepherd \/ Mixed",

                "breedPrimary": "Shepherd",

                "breedPrimaryId": 411,

                "isBreedMixed": true,

                "isCourtesyListing": false,

                "isCurrentVaccinations": true,

Thank you again.

ViV,

You're right, it's a GET call. Here's the simplest form, which will return default fields and relationships.

{{url}}/public/animals/16995700

But you probably want to include the related data, with a query such as:

{{url}}/public/animals/16995700?include=breeds,colors,fosters,locations,orgs,patterns,pictures,species,statuses,videos,videourls

Also, currently the documentation can be found here: https://test1-api.rescuegroups.org/v5/public/docs  If you scroll down to Endpoint Reference > Animals you can find all of the includes and views, etc for the Animals endpoints.

Hope that helps!
