Is there a REST API or WebHooks?
Yes we offer a REST API to allow access to the data in your online account. In addition we have Webhooks that can send information to other services based on actions that happen in your account.
We also partner with Zapier to make integration with our API even quicker and easier. Connect to 1000+ of your favorite tools with our Zapier app. Get our Zapier app here.
Within our API we use Hypermedia to allow you to explore the API and its calls. You can use many API browsers to see and interact with the API for your account with tools like Postman. Once you are logged into your account simply start your API browser and point it to https://www.scheduleit.com/api/.
API calls are made via the HTTP methods GET, POST, and DELETE. The responses return status codes indicating success or failure, along with any applicable headers, and JSON representing the affected fields (or nothing) in the message-body.
Although the connection between you and our servers is encrypted and protected by the SSL layer it is advised not to put your login details as URL parameters where possible. These could be stored in the clear in our server logs as well as being visible to snooping if your SSL connection is not secure.
/api/data set name (returns a simple summery of the top 10 records if no additional query parameters are sent)
Unless specific fields are specified only a summary is returned. You must specify the fields if you need additional record information. Request a single record to see and return ALL fields.
/api/data set name/data record id (returns ALL the available fields of the requested record)

Group search:
search_id=search id
search_name=search name
search_date_modified=(>,<,!) search date (e.g. search_date_modified=>2022-01-31)
Polling:
Polling is when you request a set of records on a repeating time bases. Where possible you should allow our Webhooks to inform your server that a change was made and send you the changes, or use it to trigger an API call for the new data.
Whilst polling is not yet banned, it should be used with great caution and must used correctly to ensure continued API access.
Polling for all records should never be used and will cause access to your API to be limited or blocked. Occasional polling is sometimes allowed to find new or recently updates records. If you are polling ensure your polling time is no more than every 20 minutes depending on the size of the data set returned.
When polling you must query for changed records since your last poll or date, and never repeat requests the same data set. Use search_date_modified to find changed events since your last check. Updating your last check date each time.
Sort the returned records with the specified fields.
sort=field names
Return up to the specified number of records.
limit=search value
POST /api/data set name
DELETE /api/data set name/record id

Security & Access
Authentication to the API is normally done using HTTP Basic Authentication where your account login (account number_login name) and password are required. The most compelling aspect about HTTP Basic Authentication is that it's simple, and you should of course always use HTTPS when submitting HTTP Basic Authentication credentials.Although the connection between you and our servers is encrypted and protected by the SSL layer it is advised not to put your login details as URL parameters where possible. These could be stored in the clear in our server logs as well as being visible to snooping if your SSL connection is not secure.

You can use the API to query your database and return data by posting a Search query. Some examples...
search_id=search id
search_title=search text
search_name=search text
search_date_start=search date
search_date_end=search date
search_owner=search resource id
search_date_modified=(search type) search date
date_range_from=search date
date_range_to=search date
For faster live support you can message our support team directly.
search_id=search id
search_title=search text
search_name=search text
search_date_start=search date
search_date_end=search date
search_owner=search resource id
search_date_modified=(search type) search date
