Methods

NameAccessible byRequired ParamsDescription
getSELECTconnectionsId, entitiesId, entityTypesId, locationsId, projectsIdGets a single entity row matching the entity type and entity id specified in the request.
listSELECTconnectionsId, entityTypesId, locationsId, projectsIdLists entity rows of a particular entity type contained in the request. Note: 1. Currently, only max of one 'sort_by' column is supported. 2. If no 'sort_by' column is provided, the primary key of the table is used. If zero or more than one primary key is available, we default to the unpaginated list entities logic which only returns the first page. 3. The values of the 'sort_by' columns must uniquely identify an entity row, otherwise undefined behaviors may be observed during pagination. 4. Since transactions are not supported, any updates, inserts or deletes during pagination can lead to stale data being returned or other unexpected behaviors.
createINSERTconnectionsId, entityTypesId, locationsId, projectsIdCreates a new entity row of the specified entity type in the external system. The field values for creating the row are contained in the body of the request. The response message contains a Entity message object returned as a response by the external system.
deleteDELETEconnectionsId, entitiesId, entityTypesId, locationsId, projectsIdDeletes an existing entity row matching the entity type and entity id specified in the request.
patchUPDATEconnectionsId, entitiesId, entityTypesId, locationsId, projectsIdUpdates an existing entity row matching the entity type and entity id specified in the request. The fields in the entity row that need to be modified are contained in the body of the request. All unspecified fields are left unchanged. The response message contains a Entity message object returned as a response by the external system.

SELECT examples

Lists entity rows of a particular entity type contained in the request. Note: 1. Currently, only max of one 'sort_by' column is supported. 2. If no 'sort_by' column is provided, the primary key of the table is used. If zero or more than one primary key is available, we default to the unpaginated list entities logic which only returns the first page. 3. The values of the 'sort_by' columns must uniquely identify an entity row, otherwise undefined behaviors may be observed during pagination. 4. Since transactions are not supported, any updates, inserts or deletes during pagination can lead to stale data being returned or other unexpected behaviors.
