We need the old API guide document for our reference #85

Open manijcgvak opened 4 years ago

manijcgvak commented 4 years ago

We are using the old API(https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ ) for our applications for last 2years. Now you have changed to the new API (https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/ ). We would like to know whether the old will be discarded completely after 31st Mar 2020? We need the old API guide document for our reference, in order to refer the old API report structure. So that we could incorporate the same functionality with the new API in our application.

We noted that there is a drastic changes in the API response JSON structure with the New API, which means we need to do an entire rework on our application. Is there any way we can simplify our effort? Please guide us on these issues.

Thanks Mani

@manijcgvak Attaching a copy of the Markdown. Also, I've put them in a repo here for convenience. ndb_api_docs.zip

Yes, the JSON structure is completely different. I think people would welcome suggestions on smoothing the transition.
