API Code Examples

Javascript

This example makes a unit panic request based on a unit's API ID. This uses the Axios library to help make the HTTP POST request.

The server response is then logged to console.

// Import Axios library
// https://www.npmjs.com/package/axios
// Install command: `npm i axios` 
import axios from 'axios';
// Set the API URL (CAD backend)
let baseURL = 'https://api.sonorancad.com';
// Set the `api` object to be used
let api = axios.create({ baseURL });

// Format the POST body data
// https://info.sonorancad.com/sonoran-cad/api-integration/api-endpoints/emergency/unit-panic
const data = {
  id: 'YOUR_COMMUNITY_ID',
  key: 'YOUR_API_KEY',
  type: 'UNIT_PANIC',
  data: [
    // Data: List (array) of unit panic objects
    //  Here, we're specifying one unit to PANIC
    {
      apiId: "STEAM:5678", // Unit with their API ID set as `STEAM:5678`
      isPanic: true,       // Panic ON
    }
  ],
};

// Send the POST request
//  Format the data to JSON
api.post('/emergency/unit_panic', JSON.stringify(data))
  .then((response) => {
    // Response back from the backend
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    // Error response back from the backend
    console.log(err);
 });

Lua

This example makes a unit panic request based on a unit's API ID. This uses the FiveM performHttpRequest native to help make the HTTP POST request.

The server response is then logged to console.

-- Body payload object
local payload = {}

-- Specify our community ID, API key, and API method type (Panic)
payload["id"] = "YOUR_COMMUNITY_ID"
payload["key"] = "YOUR_API_KEY"
payload["type"] = "UNIT_PANIC"

-- Data: List (array) of unit panic objects
--    Here, we're specifying one unit to PANIC
local postData = {
    {
        ["apiId"] = "STEAM:5678",  -- Unit with their API ID set as `STEAM:5678`
        ["isPanic"] = true         -- Panic ON
    },
}
-- Add this data to our payload
payload["data"] = postData

-- Send POST request with JSON encoded body (payload)
PerformHttpRequest("https://api.sonorancad.com/emergency/unit_panic", function(statusCode, res, headers)
    if statusCode == 200 and res ~= nil then
        -- Status code 200 (Success)
        print("result: "..tostring(res))
    else
        -- Error code
        print(("CAD API ERROR: %s %s"):format(statusCode, res))
    end
end, "POST", json.encode(payload), {["Content-Type"]="application/json"})
