  • The end point is https://app.geosamples.org/samples/field_program
    • Usage: https://app.geosamples.org/samples/field_program/[field program name].
  • The service will retrieve all IGSNs for a user defined field program. It only accepts GET requests from client programs. It does not require login and password and supports pagination. If hide_private flag is set to 1, it will not return IGSNs whose sample metadata are not public accessible.

Request Headers
  • Accept: application/xml, application/json, text/xml, text/json
    Request Body
field_program_name={name of field program}: exact name of the field program (case sensitive)
limit={limit}: maximum number of IGSNs for each page. If it is not specified, it will default to 100. page_no={page_no} page number. If it is not specified, it will
default to 100.
hide_private={1 or 0 or none} default to 0. If 1, it will not return IGSNs whose sample metadata are not public accessible.
Response Body

HTTP status codes:

  • 400 Bad Request - Field program name is not valid.
  • 404 Not Found - No IGSNs associated with the given field program name.
  • 200 Successful. It will return user IGSN(s) as follows.
