API¶
API, or Application Programming Interface, is a set of functions that "binds" two applications.
Store4 API library uses HTTP protocol to execute site methods. In order to access the API, you need two pieces of information. The first is a member email which is a unique code that we use to identify your account. The other is an API Token which acts as a password when you connect to the API. You can get both of those here.
On Members, page click on member name and after that click on API tab.
After that, you should click on the “Generate a new API Token” to display it.
You’ll need to remember both of those later when you start writing code.
Via our API you can retrieve the following objects:
- Members
- Roles
- Audit Events
- Forms
