Usage¶
The API is very simple to use and follows REST parameter conventions. A request to the API will return a JSON list of results according to the URL param string.
Users can either get a list of values such as the list of districts at the endpoint /districts, or search for a subset of members of parliament using the endpoint /search.
For example, here’s the list of legislators that have a mobile phone in the district Beirut I
curl 'http://api.openleb.io/search?mobile=true&district=Beirut%20I&prettyprint=true'
