Additional Information

• The API uses JWT authentication and requires the user to be authenticated.

• The response codes include "200" for successful requests, "400" for bad requests due to missing or invalid inputs, and "401" for unauthorized access.

• The API has rate limiting and access control based on the user's account status and permissions.

This endpoint allows users to retrieve detailed environmental impact data (CO2 and warming potential) based on specific building parameters, aiding in sustainable building design and planning.
