API

[Elizabeth Dixon]

Hello to the forum, I can go to this website below and obtain an API key.  Does anyone know how I would use the API key in Memento?  I think I need to create a script in Github?  But how?

It allows one to search the USDA food database.  This would be great for me to use in my Carb counter library for tracking nutrients.

You don't have to use github. People like it for tracking changes to their code.

Study the API Guide. If you have something you can't figure, google it.

Thats all I know.

Hallo Beth

Ich habe mal in den API gestöbert und festgestellt das die gespeicherten Lebensmiteln mit Nummer versehen sind . Mit diesen Nummern kann man die Daten abfragen . Man kann eine Bibliothek erstellen mit den Lebensmitelnummern und von dehnen aus die Daten dazu abfragen

hello beth
I once rummaged through the API and found that the stored foods are numbered. The data can be queried with these numbers. You can create a library with the food numbers and query the data from it
