Overview

Welcome to the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) Data Retrieval API. This API enables you to access detailed LCA impact data for your products by providing a product_uuid. To begin using the API, you'll need to obtain an API key.

Generating an API Key

To interact with the LCA Data Retrieval API, you need an API key. Please follow the instructions below to set up a meeting with Fairglow and get your API key:

Ready to get started? Schedule a meeting with Fairglow to obtain your API key and discuss how our LCA data can benefit your business.

Authenticating API Requests

Once you have your API key, you'll need to include it in the Authorization header of your HTTP requests to authenticate with the LCA Data Retrieval API. Here's an example using curl:

curl https://api.fairglow.tech/lca/v1/get-impact-data \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-d '{
"product_uuid": "example_product_uuid"
}'

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with the actual key you received from Fairglow, and replace example_product_uuid with the UUID of the product for which you want to retrieve LCA impact data.

If the key is invalid or missing, the server will respond with a 401 Unauthorized status code.

Retrieving LCA Impact Data

To retrieve LCA impact data for a specific product, send a POST request to the /lca/v1/get-impact-data endpoint with the product_uuid in the request body. Below is an example response:

{
"product_uuid": "example_product_uuid",
"impact_data": {
"Land use": {
"unit": "Pt",
"value": 1314.9892852961034
},

"Water use": {
"unit": "m³ depriv.",
"value": 0.14464259412938696
},

"Acidification": {
"unit": "mol H+ eq",
"value": 0.059892787582518175
},

"Climate change": {
"unit": "kg CO₂ eq",
"value": 1.6706643291581864
},
... }
}

The response contains detailed impact data related to the specified product, helping you understand its environmental footprint across various metrics.
