Fieldbook API docs

The Fieldbook API lets you read and write records in your books. Each book has its own API, based on the structure of that book.

Use cases

Use the Fieldbook API to...

• Store content or configuration for your app: Create a Fieldbook to hold app configuration or content, in lieu of a custom admin interface. Then read it through the Fieldbook API from your production app.

• Prototype and demo: Use Fieldbook as a quick back end for prototyping workflows and client apps.

• Glue together systems and processes: Dump structured output from one program, review and revise the results by hand, then feed it into the next stage of the process.
