I want to get data from a website. The website provides an API in the form of:
https: If I type the query into my browser address bar I get a JSON text back in the browser window.
What is this type of query called? If I can get the terminology correct then I can start to search how to automate the query in my C++ app.
Thanks.

The server is exposing a WebAPI. The URL contains parameters passed to the function on the server.

It is called a programming question and it is better placed in Quick Answers[^]

I got it all sorted thanks to the helpful replies. And it was a "what is this?" question, not a programming question as I at no point asked for code or even a "how do I do this?".
But thanks for setting me straight

That is the problem, I can never tell from text if one is teasing or not. The  smiley should have been enough of a clue but sometimes I can be pretty dense.
