SmartConnect functions are specific to individual copies of SmartSimple so you can only use the functions that are have been previously established in that copy. The article describes how you add functions to an instance.

Creating a New Function

You need to have Global User Administrator permissions in order to add JSON functions.

4. Click on the SmartConnect API link

Function Settings

Each function has the following settings:

  • Name – you will use this name to call the function from your own code.
  • Description – used to provide documentation as to the function’s purpose.
  • Object Type – a list of all SmartSimple objects within this instance. This will include; Report (reports you have created in the instance), Organization (company records), Users (system users and contacts), and each Universal Tracking Application™ Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 type that you have created in the instance.
  • Action Types – this defines the action to be taken by the function. The following actions are available: GET, LIST, UPDATE, DOWNLOAD FILE, and LIST FILES. Details on these Action Types / Methods are available in the following section.
