A virtual observatory with an Application Programming Interface (API) can become a powerful tool in analysis and
modeling. In particular, an API that integrates time selection on such criteria as "most recent" and closest to a
given absolute time simplifies the user-end programming considerably. We examine three types of use cases
(nowcasting, data assimilation input, and user-defined sampling rates) for such functionality in the Virtual Solar
Observatory (VSO).
