JavaScript makes it super simple to fetch from an API endpoint.

fetch('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json')
    .then(response => {
        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error('');
        }
        return response.json();
    })
    .then(data => {
        // Do something with the response data
        // console.log(data);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error('Error:', error);
    });

Python for easily work with data.

import requests
url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json'
try:
    response = requests.get(url)
    response.raise_for_status()  # Raise an exception for 4XX and 5XX status codes
    data = response.json()  # Parse the JSON response
    print(data)  # Print the response data
except requests.RequestException as e:
    print(f'Error: {e}')

PowerShell code to extract data.

$url = 'https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json'
try {
    $response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method Get
    # Print the response
    Write-Output $response
} catch {
    # Print error message if request fails
    Write-Error "Error: $_"
}

The following snippet brings data into your application.

require 'net/http'
url = URI('https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json')
begin
response = Net::HTTP.get_response(url)
if response.is_a?(Net::HTTPSuccess)
    puts response.body
else
    puts "Error: #{response.code} - #{response.message}"
end
rescue StandardError => e
puts "Error: #{e.message}"
end

Below code that makes usage with .NET more natural.

using System;
using System.Net.Http;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
class Program
{
    static async Task Main(string[] args)
    {
        var response = await new HttpClient().GetStringAsync("https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json");
        Console.WriteLine(response);
    }
}

JAVA for easily work with data.

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.URL;
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        URL url = new URL("https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json");
        HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        connection.setRequestMethod("GET");
        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()));
        String line;
        StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            response.append(line);
        }
        reader.close();
        System.out.println(response.toString());
    }
}

The following snippet brings data into your application.

shell "curl -X GET https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json"

PHP code to brings the data.

<?php
// Specify the URL you want to send the GET request to
$url = "https://datacatalogapi.worldbank.org/dexapps/fone/api/apiservice?datasetId=DS00024&resourceId=RS00021&top=100&type=json";
// Initialize cURL session
$curl = curl_init();
// Set the cURL options
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
// Execute cURL session
$response = curl_exec($curl);
// Close cURL session
curl_close($curl);
// Print the response
echo $response;
?>
