Automate Coordinator DB SQL over HTTP
Coordinator DB provides an HTTP SQL interface rather than a hosted-service management API. Use POST / for SQL and GET /ping for an unauthenticated readiness check. Infrastructure provisioning, account billing and service lifecycle operations belong to your deployment tools.
curl --fail-with-body --silent \
--user "$COORDINATOR_USER:$COORDINATOR_PASSWORD" \
--data-binary 'SELECT 1 AS value FORMAT json_each_row' \
'http://127.0.0.1:7401/?database=data'Handle the response deliberately
Check the HTTP status before treating the body as query output. Capture X-Coordinator-Query-Id when diagnosing a failure. SQL errors usually return 400, invalid credentials return 401 and admission failures can return 503. Never turn every failure into an unconditional retry of a write.
The accepted URL parameters are query, database, default_format and result_limit. Passwords and API keys are not accepted in URL parameters. Duplicate or unknown parameters are errors.
Each HTTP request has a separate session. Put all transaction statements into one request and commit before it ends. Responses are buffered, bound parameters and persistent HTTP sessions are unsupported, and a client must escape application values safely rather than concatenate untrusted text.
See HTTP request contract and transactions.
