Patterns API

What is Patterns Application Programming Interface (API)?

This is a web service hosted on the FVD server. It provides REST API that can be called from any website. API functions fetch data from our database, such as vehicle Makes, Models, Trims, Years and kit details such as description, sqft, difficulty level and suggested price.

What is this for?

With the help of our API, you can showcase our window tint and ppf patterns, their metadata and previews on your websites.

Is it difficult to add Patterns API to my website?

No, it is not difficult to add the Patterns API to a website. Website administrators only need minimal skills in HTML and JavaScript.

Does it require any programming?

For basic integration, no programming is required. However, if you want extra functionality or a different look, some programming will be necessary. This additional functionality goes beyond what is provided in our "jump start" demo.

What the “jump start” demo looks like?

Simple: https://services.filmvinyldesigns.com/api/patterns/v2/demo/

The demo page has both HTML and JS code.

Are there live examples?

More sophisticated implementation - our patterns page.

What programming languages can be used with this API?

Any programming language can be used with this API, as it is not language-specific. The key requirement is that API calls must be made from an allowed domain (or IP address). Additionally, the first call must always be to the ../auth endpoint with a valid token, as demonstrated in the "jump start" demo.

What is required to get access to Patterns API?

To access the Patterns API, you need an access token. This token entails the following requirements:

1. Active FVD license (defines available patterns and expiration date);
2. List of domains or IP addresses from which you will be making calls to our API;
3. Your website must use HTTPS.
