OData supported features

OData uses conventions that work with existing standards (REST, JSON, XML, Atom) to provide representation for common functionality. The FileMaker Platform supports OData at the intermediate conformance level, with some exceptions. See the OData 4.01 Protocol.

You can use the OData API to:

• Retrieve information about FileMaker Cloud and FileMaker Server; for example, hosted database names and table names, and metadata for a database. See Database structure and metadata.

• Create, edit, or delete a record. See Modifying data.

• Find a record, or find all records. See Request data.

• Perform multiple operations in a single request. See Batch requests.

• Specify criteria to find a set of records. See Query options.

• Modify database schema. See Modify schema.

• Run FileMaker scripts. See Run scripts.

• Upload container data. See Work with container data.
