New API Documentation Portal

We've launched a comprehensive API documentation portal covering all three CCA products: Microscope, Pebble, and Labs.

What's Included

Microscope API

Complete reference for:

• Image capture and retrieval
• Environmental control (temperature, CO₂, humidity)
• Stage positioning for SBS plates
• Time-lapse scheduling
• Metadata and status queries

Pebble API

Documentation for:

• Real-time sensor data retrieval
• Historical data queries
• Multi-sensor aggregation
• Alert configuration
• CSV export endpoints

Labs API

Full coverage of:

• Protocol CRUD operations
• Version control and history
• Experiment data access
• Inventory queries
• Scheduling endpoints

Interactive Examples

Each endpoint includes:

• Request/response examples in Python, JavaScript, and curl
• Try-it-now functionality in the browser
• Common use case patterns
• Error handling guidance

Code Snippets

Ready-to-use code for common workflows:

Automated time-lapse with environmental monitoring:

import requests
import time

microscope = "http://microscope.local"
pebble = "http://pebble-base.local"

for i in range(24):  # 24 hours
    # Capture image
    img = requests.post(f"{microscope}/api/capture",
        json={'position': 'A1'}).json()
    
    # Get environmental data
    env = requests.get(f"{pebble}/api/sensors/current").json()
    
    # Log both together
    print(f"Hour {i}: {env['temp']}°C, Image: {img['url']}")
    
    time.sleep(3600)  # Wait 1 hour
