Often, the easiest way to learn how to use an API can be to look at sample code. This page provides a number of convenient ways to access the Google Cloud Storage JSON API.
Google APIs client libraries
The Google Cloud Storage JSON API is built on HTTP and JSON, so any standard web stack can send requests to it and parse the responses.
However, instead of creating HTTP requests and parsing responses manually, you may want to use the Google APIs Client Libraries. The client libraries provide better language integration, improved security, and support for making calls that require user authorization.
In the tables below, the first column shows each library's stage of development (note that some are in early stages), and links to documentation for the library. The second column links to available samples for each library.
These early-stage libraries are also available:
| Documentation | Samples |
|---|---|
| Google APIs Client Library for Go (alpha) | Go samples |
| Google APIs Client Library for Node.js (alpha) | Node.js samples |
| Google APIs Client Library for Ruby (alpha) | Ruby samples |
In addition to the Google-supported client libraries listed in the table above, a set of third-party Dart libraries (with samples ) is available for the Dart language .
