General steps for using OData with FileMaker Pro Databases

1. Prepare your FileMaker Pro database for OData access using FileMaker Pro. See Enable OData access in databases.

2. Write code that calls OData methods to find records, modify records, run FileMaker scripts, and modify the schema of a hosted database. See Write OData API calls.

3. Host your FileMaker Pro database using FileMaker Cloud or FileMaker Server with OData access enabled. See Host databases for OData access.

4. Test to ensure that OData access is working correctly. See Test OData access.

5. Monitor your hosted database using FileMaker Cloud and FileMaker Server Admin Console. See Monitor OData access.
