REST support
APIs published using Sheetlabs can support reading and writing of data, via a RESTful HTTP interface. Often, the API publisher will only allow reads. Refer to the API documentation you've been provided to determine what they have opted to support.
The following table shows the HTTP methods and the meaning to Sheetlabs for each. If you are only reading data from a Sheetlabs API, then you can ignore this - you will always be using the GET
method.
Method | Description |
---|---|
GET |
Retrieve record(s) |
POST |
Create a record |
PUT |
Replace a record in its entirety |
PATCH |
Partially amend a record |
DELETE |
Delete a record |
