Access the secret API

Behind this URL http://lims.dccouncil.us/_layouts/15/uploader/AdminProxy.aspx/GetPublicData and this payload {"legislationId":"B20-0199"}, there is a beautiful JSON response with most of the metadata associated with a particular measure.

To see it, go to http://lims.dccouncil.us/Legislation/B20-0199 and look up the requests to the server.

Unfortunately, curl -XPOST "http://lims.dccouncil.us/_layouts/15/uploader/AdminProxy.aspx/GetPublicData" -d "{\"legislationId\":\"B20-0153\"}" doesn't work, so we need to be a little more clever...

But, we can do it.

It needs a Content-Type header:

curl -XPOST "http://lims.dccouncil.us/_layouts/15/uploader/AdminProxy.aspx/GetPublicData" \
-d '{"legislationId":"B20-0199"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
