Methods and apparatuses for providing a desired portion of a data object document

A proxy server to provide a desired portion of data object documents, the proxy server comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable medium to store instructions;
• and
• a processor coupled with the non-transitory computer readable medium to process the stored instructions to:
• receive, from a client device, an application program interface (API) request for a data object document, wherein the API request includes a parameter identifying the desired portion of the data object document, and the desired portion is less than all of the data object document,
• transmit the API request for the data object document without the parameter identifying the desired portion of the data object document to an origin server that hosts the entire data object document,
• receive an API response from the origin server that includes the data object document including more than the desired portion of the data object document,
• automatically select, from the received data object document, the desired portion of the data object document based on the parameter, and
• transmit, to the client device, the desired portion of the data object document instead of all of the data object document.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium that provide instructions, which when executed by a processor of a proxy server, cause said processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, from a client device, an application program interface (API) request for a data object document, wherein the API request includes a parameter identifying a desired portion of the data object document, and the desired portion is less than all of the data object document;
• transmitting the API request for the data object document without the parameter identifying the desired portion of the data object document to an origin server that hosts the entire data object document;
• receiving an API response from the origin server that includes the data object document including more than the desired portion of the data object document;
• automatically selecting, from the received data object document, the desired portion of the data object document based on the parameter;
• and
• transmitting, to the client device, the desired portion of the data object document instead of all of the data object document.
