(return to Main Document)

Introduction

The VOLUNTEER API allows client applications to maintain VOLUNTEER data record sets.

Audience

This developer's guide is intended for software developers needing a technical reference for using the QBOS REST API. The information you find in this guide is written by software engineering, and is authoritative on how the API behaves.

Occasionally, we make a mistake in this documentation, or unknowingly break a feature that you depend on. If this has happened to you, we apologize! You can help us fix the issue by contacting us at: pkajaani@qbos.com. We appreciate your help.

Getting Started

To place any request in a QBOS API application from a third party application you need to first authenticate your user account and set/calculate values for the following request headers: x-qbos-id, x-qbos-nonce, x-qbos-date-utc, x-qbos-hash-version, x-qbos-auth

See details in Authentication Documentation.

Custom resource vs. standard resource URI format

Custom resource (a.k.a applet) URI contains the resource vendor id in place of "/o/" in the standard object URI. Compare: .../v1/o/...with .../v1/{vendor_id}/...

VOLUNTEER Relationships

Parent and Child relations to VOLUNTEER.

Note that the only Required status on relationships that affect a POST of an object are on the parent relations. A Required status on a child relation is only meaningful when POSTing the child object.

Linking during POST: a custom object record can be linked to a parent or child record (custom or standard) during POST by including (in the payload) the realtion id paired with the parent or child object record being linked to. For example: { "REl_3147" : 1832 }      Multiple links may be created in the same POST.
