JSON Format

All responses are in JSON, and follow the guidelines of well-formed JSON, which includes the following:

• Keys are double-quoted.
• Key names must be valid JS identifiers. For example, "username" instead of "user name" or "user-name."
• Strings are double-quoted.
• Dates are encoded in YYYY-MM-DD format, for example, "2009-03-04".
• Timestamps are encoded as ISO 8601 Strings, for example, "2011-05-09T20:55:59.547Z".
  • An ISO8601 timestamp (http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime) generally follows the form YYYY-MM-DDT12:00:00Z or YYYY-MM-DDT12:00:00+XX:00. While the ISO8601 standard allows for timezone information to be omitted, timezone must be passed to this service.
  • Depending on the timezone you decide to use, you may be required to encode certain characters in your URL, such as the "+" character that appears in some timestamps (for example: 2013-10-16T12:06:00+04:00).
• Booleans are used for Boolean values, as opposed to 1 or 0 or "true" or "false."
