Example:

curl -u [[app:username]]:[[app:password]] https://acuityscheduling.com/api/v1/appointments.json

<?php

$userID = '[[app:username]]';
$key = '[[app:password]]';

// URL for all appointments (just an example):
$url = 'https://acuityscheduling.com/api/v1/appointments.json';

// Initiate curl:
// GET request, so no need to worry about setting post vars:
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);

// Grab response as string:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

// HTTP auth:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$userID:$key");

// Execute request:
$result = curl_exec($ch);

// Don't forget to close the connection!
curl_close($ch);

$data = json_decode($result, true);
print_r($data);
