# HTTP API

### Using the HTTP API

The FoxMetrics server-side HTTP API can be used to send data from any system to FoxMetrics by making a GET or POST request to your account collector host with the event details you want to send. 

> The call must be made using the HTTPS protocol. 

{% hint style="info" %}
Your collector host and application identifiers can be found in the [portal](https://my.foxmetrics.com) after you log in.
{% endhint %}
