# Introduction The DigitalOcean API allows you to manage Droplets and resources within the DigitalOcean cloud in a simple, programmatic way using conventional HTTP requests. All of the functionality that you are familiar with in the DigitalOcean control panel is also available through the API, allowing you to script the complex actions that your situation requires. The API documentation will start with a general overview about the design and technology that has been implemented, followed by r

Sample Requests

GET List 1-Click Applications

To list all available 1-Click applications, send a GET request to `/v2/1-clicks`. The `type` may be provided as query paramater in order to restrict results to a certain type of 1-Click, for example: `/v2/1-clicks?type=droplet`. Current supported types are `kubernetes` and `droplet`. The response w

GET List All Database Clusters

To list all of the database clusters available on your account, send a GET request to `/v2/databases`. To limit the results to database clusters with a specific tag, include the `tag_name` query parameter set to the name of the tag. For example, `/v2/databases?tag_name=$TAG_NAME`. The result will be
