h2. FeedMiX web api

You don't need to use the web "Web interface":http://feedmix.novaclic.com to build a FeedMiX, you may build the query url on the fly to get your result. Please note that if you plan to use it on your website, we ask you to request a "TOKEN" from us. It's free, but will enable us to size the server according to your need, by monitoring the usage statistics.

h3. Basic FeedMiX web API usage

The FeedMiX URL is built as follow:

* *feedmix.novaclic.com/mashup.php?*

* Followed by feed list (for each feed):

** s<n> : feed <n> source  (urlencoded)

** n<n> : feed <n> name (urlencoded)

* Then the strings to search for:

** k : the strings query, each string is comma separated from the others (urlencoded)

** t : triggerlevel (integer value)

* The match mode:

** m : [a|w] 'a' for logical AND, 'w' for WEIGHTED

* Finally, the version:

** v : integer (at least 1, see FeedMiX generated by the web interface to get the current version) 

*Example*:
