Queries
Moveshelf is designed to keep data secure but always
accessible. This is true both from our web interface, for physicians and
clinical operators, as well as programmatically from our API, for
engineers and scientists. This chapter contains all information to get

programmatically download a large amount of measurement files or to
query database information about your patient population.
