Account key usage

Question

I am trying to use the query results I created in my bing search api in the service explorer.

I thought you would simply plug in your app id into the URL request...like appid="" I see many things about odata. I would like for people to use the query I built in the service explorer on one of my websites but I use Coldfusion and I don't see any examples of how to do this with coldfusion. Can you help me understand what I need to do next to get this query on a website using coldfusion.

Answer 1

Hi,

Sorry, I am not good at Coldfusion. Please open case in the Coldfusion forum online:

Are there any other moderators that you can ask about this?

Answer 3

Hi,

Actually we are Windows Azure team. From last year Bing API Community development forum has been combined with the Windows Azure Marketplace forum, so I get your thread. But we are not familiar with this language. Sorry for the inconvenience and hope your understanding. I think for developing Coldfusion it is necessary for you to find some helpful forums on Coldfusion language, which is the same to Microsoft technology in MSDN forum. The above forums I provide may be not the major ones, but you can try them or find by yourself.

Thanks,

Basically you can use the Search API query as a normal REST based service and you can do this in any language.

You can repro this even in a regular Web browser. For example: type https://api.datamarket.azure.com/Bing/Search/v1/Image?Query=%27xbox%27 in your browser window and use your primary account key as a password (disregard the username)

Thanks,
