The API page in the Arctos Handbook, offers no documentation whatsoever. Luckily Michelle Koo was able to point me to API documentation elsewhere:
https://arctos.database.museum/info/api.cfm
https://arctos.database.museum/component/api/v2/about.cfc?method=api_map
The API page in the Handbook should at least cover the basics (like what you can use the API for) and point to those other pages at a minimum.
