BF Taxons API
Irena Bojanova, Inventor/Creator, PI & Lead, NIST Bugs Framework (BF), 2014 – ~~~ #

The current BF Taxonomy comprizes the BF Input/Output Check(_INP), Memory Corruption/Dusclosure (_MEM), and Data Type (_DAT) Class Types and the BF Failure (_FLR) Class Type.

The BF Taxons API queries BF and generates the BF Taxon Definitions.

• BF Taxon Definitions → Key required:
  https://samate.nist.gov/services/BF/BFTaxonomy/BFTaxons?key=YOUR_KEY

• Programatically → Key required:
  

  C#
  

  HttpClient client = new HttpClient() { BaseAddress = new Uri("https://samate.nist.gov/services/BF") };
  
  //replace YOUR_USER_NAME and YOUR_KEY
  client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("user", YOUR_USER_NAME);
  client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("key", YOUR_KEY);
  
  var responseCSV = await client.GetAsync("BFTaxonomy/BFTaxons/api");
  responseCSV.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();        
  var result = await responseCSV.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
