### Fetch Online Controllers using Java

Source: https://vatsim.dev/api/core-api/atc-api-online-atc

This Java example uses the Apache HttpClient library to make a GET request to the VATSIM API for online controllers. It retrieves and prints the JSON response.

```java
import org.apache.http.client.methods.CloseableHttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.CloseableHttpClient;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.HttpClients;
import org.apache.http.util.EntityUtils;

public class VatsimApiClient {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try (CloseableHttpClient client = HttpClients.createDefault()) {
            HttpGet request = new HttpGet("https://api.vatsim.net/v2/atc/online");
            request.addHeader("Accept", "application/json");

            try (CloseableHttpResponse response = client.execute(request)) {
                if (response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() == 200) {
                    String jsonResponse = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
                    System.out.println(jsonResponse);
                } else {
                    System.err.println("Error: " + response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());
                }
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {

### Initiate VATSIM OAuth2 Authorization (Go)

Source: https://vatsim.dev/api/connect-api/redirect

This Go code snippet shows how to initiate the VATSIM OAuth2 authorization flow. It constructs the authorization URL with query parameters and uses the net/http package to make the request, which will typically result in a redirect.

```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
	"net/url"
)

func main() {
	baseURL := "https://auth.vatsim.net/oauth/authorize"
	params := url.Values{}
	params.Add("response_type", "code")
	params.Add("client_id", "YOUR_CLIENT_ID")
	params.Add("redirect_uri", "YOUR_REDIRECT_URI")
	params.Add("scope", "full_name email vatsim_details country")
	params.Add("state", "YOUR_STATE_VALUE")
	params.Add("prompt", "none")

	finalURL := baseURL + "?" + params.Encode()
	fmt.Println("Authorization URL:", finalURL)

	// In a real application, you would redirect the user's browser to finalURL
	// resp, err := http.Get(finalURL)
	// Handle response and error
}
```

$httpCode = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);

if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    echo 'cURL error: ' . curl_error($ch);
} else {
    if ($httpCode == 200) {
        $memberStatus = json_decode($response, true);
        echo "Member {$memberId} is online:\n";
        print_r($memberStatus);
    } elseif ($httpCode == 404) {
        echo "Member {$memberId} not found or is offline.";
    } else {

```powershell
$baseUrl = "https://auth.vatsim.net/oauth/authorize"
$params = @{
    "response_type" = "code"
    "client_id" = "YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
    "redirect_uri" = "YOUR_REDIRECT_URI"
    "scope" = "full_name email vatsim_details country"
    "state" = "YOUR_STATE_VALUE"
    "prompt" = "none"
}

$queryString = ""
$params.GetEnumerator() | ForEach-Object { 
    $queryString += "$($_.Name)=$($_.Value)&" 
}
# Remove trailing '&'
