5.6.Form API
Form API
In order for 3rd party applications to interact with JET WorkFlow directly, we use API.
For different purpose, we have different APIs.
**Note that the API URLs on this page are samples and will not work at all.

Limits & Pages
https://demo.jetworkflow.com/ims/jetapi.php?method=getRecords&key=fraroprijepip6uspl7ostlklcirust&id_form=9999&project=projectname&&limit=10&page=1
Append
&limit=<value1>&page=<value2>
to the end of a GET API url.
- value1 – the number of records to display.
- value2 – the page of records to display.
For example,
&limit=10&page=1 means that it will return the first set of 10 records.
&limit=15&page=3 means that it will return the 3rd set of 15 records.
Results will be similiar to the below example after running the API.
**Note that even without the additional limits/pages, the API will still return the pagination option. The example below shows how the pagination would look like if we did not run the API with limits/pages.
{
"data": [
{
"ROW_ID": 1,
"test": "this is a new test"
},
{
"ROW_ID": 2,
"test": "test3"
}
],
"field_labels": {
"test": "test"
},
"pagination": {
"total_records": 2,
"current_page": 1,
"records_per_page": 1000000,
"total_pages": 1
}
}
Create Multiple Records at once
https://demo.jetworkflow.com/ims/jetapi.php?method=addRecordsBatch&key=a4bd0efeff4f4ed6fcf68453ca92f123&id_form=209&project=projectname
For creating multiple records at the same time, we need to submit the POST API with JSON payload
Below shows an example of a JSON payload. The example shows how you can add 3 records with 2 field values each. If you need to add more records, you can increase it accordingly.
{
"records": [
{
"field1": "value1",
"field2": "value1"
},
{
"field1": "value4",
"field2": "value1"
},
{
"field1": "value7",
"field2": "value1"
}
]
}
Multiple Delete
https://demo.jetworkflow.com/ims/jetapi.php?method=deleteRecord&key=fraroprijepip6uspl7ostlklcirust&id_form=9999&project=projectname&id_record=1,2,3
For delete record API, usually it would only allow you to delete a single record by specifying a single record id.
Instead of just id_record=1
you can use id_record=1,2,3
where the record id can be retrieved from a separate GET API results.
In this way, you can delete multiple records at once.
