FileMaker 18 Data API Guide
Returns the file metadata of the specified container field. Photos that were inserted using earlier versions of FileMaker Pro are not automatically oriented; Using the attribute MD5 allows you to prevent the insertion of duplicated files into a container field regardless of the filename. Unable to export/download file from container field in WebDirect. ISSUE: The VAT/sales tax rate for Electronic Software Downloads and other FileMaker products classified as services under local law will be at the rate applicable to the country where the customer belongs. The FileMaker® Data API is an application programming interface (API) that allows web services to access data in hosted FileMaker solutions via HTTP requests. Because this API conforms to Representational State Transfer (REST) architecture, the FileMaker Data API is considered a RESTful API. Table of Contents.

Your web service or application calls the FileMaker Data API to obtain an authentication token for access to a hosted database, then uses that token in subsequent calls to create records, update records, delete records, and perform find requests. Web server.
Database Server. FileMaker Pro Advanced does not need to be installed or running. They don't need to install additional software—just compatible web browser software and access to the Internet or an intranet.
The user interface resembles the desktop FileMaker Pro Advanced application. The webpages and forms that the web user interacts with are dependent on the layouts and views defined in the FileMaker Pro Advanced database. Static publishing: If your data rarely changes, or if you don't want users to have a live connection to your database, you can use static publishing. The webpage doesn't change when information in your database changes, and users don't connect to your database.
Specify a layout that defines Form View as the default view for the layout. Note: For security reasons, enable the fmrest extended privilege only in the privilege sets for accounts that you want to allow access via FileMaker Data API. See the Product Documentation Center. Note: The tablename::related-field repetition-number. A FileMaker script is one or more instructions script steps that you define to automate repetitive or difficult tasks.
See Running FileMaker scripts. The other FileMaker files must have the fmrest extended privilege enabled. In FileMaker Pro Advanced, both scripts and user actions such as the user clicking a field can activate script triggers. Used with Log in to a database sessionCreate a recordDuplicate a recordPerform a find requestand Upload container data.

Used with Log out of a database session and Delete a record. Used with Log in to a database sessionLog out of a database sessionCreate a recordEdit a recordPerform a find requestand Set global field values.
Used with Upload container data. The value for access-token is the unique session token returned when logging in to a session. It is required to authenticate access to the hosted database. See Log in to a database session. Used with Log in to a database session using an OAuth identity provider and Get metadata. This header specifies the identifier that is returned by the OAuth provider. That access token must be used in the header of all subsequent calls to the hosted database.
The access token is valid until you log out of a database session or for 15 minutes after the last call that specified the token. While the token is valid, each call that specifies the token resets the session timeout counter to zero.
The account name and password are specified in a header Authorization string. If the account filemaker api download file from container field and password are authenticated, your code receives an access token that defines your connection to the database. This connection is called a database session. Authorization: a baseencoded string representing the account name and password to use to log in to the hosted database.
The account name and password are separated by a colon. May optionally use the fmDataSource parameter to log in to an external data source. See Log in to an external data source. The access token, a response body with the access token, and a messages array showing an error code of 0. If your hosted database needs to log in to an external data source, the hosted database name is specified in the URL; the account name and password for the hosted database are specified in a header Authorization string; and the database name, account name, and password for the external data source are specified in the fmDataSource parameter as a JSON array.
The fmDataSource parameter with a JSON array specifying the database name, account name, and password to use for logging in to the external data source. Notes FileMaker databases are the only external data sources supported. Specify the database name without the. Files listed in the fmDataSource parameter will be opened as needed, for example, when a script is run or when the context is changed to a layout that requires the external data source.
As a result, errors with logging in to the external data source happen when attempting to open the files, not when logging in to the database session. If the authentication is accepted, your code receives an access token that defines your connection to the database. The list is returned filemaker api download file from container field JSON format. Your code receives an access token that defines your connection to the database.
If your code does not log out of the database session, filemaker api download file from container field, the access token becomes invalid when the FileMaker Data API session times out 15 minutes after the last call that specified the token. A messages array showing an error code of 0. See Error responses. If Filter Databases in Client Applications is enabled: Authorization: a baseencoded string representing the account name and password to use to log in to the hosted database.
A scripts array listing the script names and script folders, and a messages array showing an error code of 0. A response body with fieldMetaData, portalMetaData and valueLists arrays, and a messages array showing an error code of 0. Notes For dynamic value lists, an empty value list is returned when the request does not include a recordId parameter as part of the URL. Record data in JSON format containing field-and-value pairs that specify values for fields that are in the target layout.
The data may specify related records or portals that are on the layout by using the portalData specification. A portal name can be either the object name shown in the Inspector in FileMaker Pro Advanced or the related table name. Note: To create an empty record with default values for each field, specify an empty data object in JSON format as the parameter. You can run FileMaker scripts as part of this request by including the script. If the data does not pass field validation, you will receive an error message and the record will not be created.
Record data in JSON format containing field-and-value pairs to update, filemaker api download file from container field. Only the fields you specify are updated; other fields in the record are not changed.
Optional parameter: Modification ID modId. Specifying a modification ID ensures that you are editing the current version of a record. If the modification ID value does not match the current modification ID value in the database, the record is not changed. If the data does not pass field validation, filemaker api download file from container field, you will receive an error message and the record will not be updated.
To delete a related record, use the deleteRelated syntax. You can also specify portal information to limit the number of related records that are returned. For the portal keyword: portal-name-n is a portal containing the related records. You can specify multiple portal names. The portal portion of the URL is optional.
If the layout includes portals, specify the portal names for better performance, filemaker api download file from container field. If the portal portion is omitted, the call will return all related records in all portals on the layout.
If you want the filemaker api download file from container field data in the context of a different layout, use the layout. The layout specified by layout. Specifying a layout for a different table can produce unexpected results. If you omit the offset and limit values for portal rows, the default for offset is 1 and the default limit for portal records is To get a range of records, use an HTTP GET method with the records API endpoint specifying the database name, the layout, and additional information to specify a starting record and the number of records.
Optionally, you can specify the sort order of the records. You can specify multiple field names. For sort-orderspecify the ascend or descend keyword, or specify a value list name. If the layout includes portals, you may want to specify the portal names for performance reasons.
If the portal portion is omitted, the call will return all related records in all of the portals on the layout. All other parts are ignored. Notes The container field must filemaker api download file from container field a field in the table occurrence of the specified layout. It cannot be a container field in a related table. The FileMaker Data API caches the container field data to a cache folder on the master machine when it is being uploaded, but the cached data is deleted when the request completes.
A query in JSON format specifying the fields and find criteria. Optional parameters specifying omit requests, the sort order, starting record offsetnumber of records limitand portals for limiting the number of related records that are returned. Notes Sorting and returning records can be time consuming.
Reduce record download time by limiting the number of fields on the requested layout and omitting fields that contain filemaker api download file from container field. To restrict the number of records and rows to display in a related set, specify the offset.
You cannot specify global fields as find criteria. If you specify a global field with a find request, you receive an error message. Instead, set the global field value before the find request.
See Set global field values. A JSON object with field-and-value pairs specifying the global fields to set. The global fields must be specified using fully qualified field names filemaker api download file from container field name::field name.
FileMaker Basics Lesson 18: Container Fields with External Storage
, time: 6:19Filemaker api download file from container field
FileMaker Pro 7 had added a new feature that allowed you to export the contents of a container field to a file, but this feature allowed you to export one file at a time. FileMaker Pro 8 introduces the use of variables that allows you to create file paths dynamically which gives you the ability to export a number of files contained in a. Files can be stored in a container field, but there is no access to the server's file system. The FileMaker Data API returns field data as it is stored in the database, not as it is displayed in FileMaker Pro Advanced. FileMaker Data API reference information. For container field data, the FileMaker Data API returns a URL with the path reference to the container data object. FileMaker scripts and the FileMaker Data API FileMaker scripts can automate frequently performed tasks and can combine several tasks.
