The REST API allows users to query the iQSonar results directly using the web client protocol. The results are returned in JSON format.

By default the REST API "/api/v1/devices" page will return 200 devices at a time. We can increase or decrease this using the "fetch_size" parameter in the URL. The X-fetch-count header contains the total number of devices in the dataset. The X-fetch-current-size header shows how many were returned in this batch of results.
