Required Parameters | Name | Type | Notes/Example |
---|
meta[name] | STRING | Name of the resource | meta[type] | STRING | Type of resource (entry, section, field, etc.) |
|
Optional Parameters | Name | Type | Notes/Example |
---|
meta[parent_id] | INTEGER | ID of the parent resource | meta[category_id] | INTEGER | ID of the category |
|
Required Parameters (meta[type] = entry) | One of the following: Name | Type | Notes/Example |
---|
meta[section_id] | INTEGER | ID of the section that the entry will be assigned to | meta[section] | STRING | Slug of the section that the entry will be assigned to |
|
Optional Parameters (meta[type] = entry) | Name | Type | Notes/Example |
---|
fields[] | ARRAY | Entry field values (for fields that have already been assigned to the section) can be populated when the entry is created. The format is field[field-slug][field-instance]. If the field instance is left blank, it will simply be the next value in the instance array. For example: fields[network-fqdn][]=example.com&fields[network-fqdn][]=test.com would be written in JSON as var fields = { "network-fqdn": [ "example.com", "test.com" ] } Please note that the Field Slug might differ from the Field Name! To find the correct slug to use in adding resources with field values go the Section of the Resource you are adding, click 'Edit', then click the name of the Fields you will be populating. An Edit Field box will pop up which displays the Field's slug. A field can be added to a section multiple times. The field instance is used to keep track of which field occurrence we are referring. In this example, the network-fqdn field had been added twice to the section so we were able to store two values for it. | meta[custom_id] | STRING | A custom ID for the entry. In the past this has been called the Resource Holder ID or Customer ID. Most recently it was implemented as a text field with the slug "6c-resourceholder-id." Now it is a fundamental part the entry type resources. |

Required Parameters (meta[type] = field) | Name | Type | Notes/Example |
---|
meta[field_type] | STRING | Type of field - text

meta[help_block] | STRING | Fields can have a line of text under them with instructions | meta[options] | ARRAY | Fields of type radios, checkboxes, or choicebox can have multiple options. This could be multiple radio buttons or a choicebox (dropdown) with several options. For example: meta[type]=field&meta[name]=Colors&meta[field_type]=choicebox&meta[options][]=Blue&meta[options][]=Green Will create a choicebox with dropdown options of Blue and Green. |

delete |
---|
URL | /api/v1/api.php?target=resource&action=delete |
Description | Delete a resource. |
Returns | Examples: SUCCESSFUL: {"success":1,"message":"Resource deleted."} ERROR: {"success":0,"message":"No resource found with ID: 57"} |
Required Parameters | Name | Type | Notes/Example |
---|
id | INTEGER | ID of the resource |
|
Optional Parameters | Name | Type | Notes/Example |
---|
recursive | BOOL | When 1, deletes parent and child entries for the resource |
A recursive delete will delete all resources, which are permitted to be deleted, from the bottom up. Imagine the following hierarchy: If a recursive delete is performed on A, but C21 is not deletable, the following resources would still be deleted: (B1, C11, C12, C22). B2 would not be deleted because it depends on C21 and A would not be deleted because it depends on B2. |
Example URL | /api/v1/api.php?target=resource&action=delete&id=57 |
