1010data Dynamic API
The 1010data Dynamic Application Programming Interface (API) allows you to write a client application that can access and query data on the Insights Platform database servers.
Prerequisites
To effectively work with the Dynamic API, you should be familiar with RESTful APIs and with 1010data Insights Platform concepts.

1010data Dynamic API
The 1010data Dynamic Application Programming Interface (API) allows you to write a client application that can access and query data on the Insights Platform database servers.
- Prerequisites
  To effectively work with the Dynamic API, you should be familiar with RESTful APIs and with 1010data Insights Platform concepts.
- Dynamic API versus XML API
  The Dynamic API has several benefits over the 1010data XML API.
- Introduction to the Asynchronous Query Interface (AQI)
  The Asynchronous Query Interface (AQI) is a new feature in the Dynamic API that allows the user's main accum to dispatch entire queries to worker accums to be processed asynchronously.

Prerequisites

To effectively work with the Dynamic API, you should be familiar with RESTful APIs and with 1010data Insights Platform concepts.

We recommend that users of the Dynamic API are already familiar with other service APIs such as REST or SOAP. While similar to REST APIs in several ways, the Insights Platform's stateful, session-based access model is different from traditional REST APIs. Therefore, we also recommend knowledge of Insights Platform sessions, directories, tables, and queries.

To use the Dynamic API, a valid Insights Platform account with API access is required.

Note: The examples in this guide are written in Python 3 and use the Requests HTTP library for Python. Refer to http://python-requests.org for more information. However, you may use any language that supports HTTP transactions, as well as any HTTP library.
