Endpoint Parameter Guide

This page is the quick parameter reference for Buzzy REST endpoints. Endpoint-specific pages still contain examples, but this guide lists the required inputs, optional inputs, and the main caveats for each REST endpoint.

Common Request Rules

Most endpoints use JSON over POST.

Authenticated endpoints require these headers:

X-Auth-Token: <authToken from /api/login>
X-User-Id: <userId from /api/login>
Content-Type: application/json

Some endpoints also require x-api-key. If both token auth and API-key auth are documented for an endpoint, use both unless the endpoint page explicitly says otherwise.

Best practices:

  • Always use IDs from the Buzzy editor or API responses, not display names, for microAppID, rowID, fieldID, organizationID, teamID, and teamMemberID.

  • Treat microAppID as the Datatable resource ID. The historical endpoint names still use microapp.

  • Use POST /api/login first and keep authToken and userId out of logs and screenshots.

  • Send numbers as numbers when possible. Older examples may show quoted skip or limit; prefer numeric values.

  • For Datatable paging, use explicit limit and skip on the row-query object. Do not rely on implicit defaults.

Authentication

Endpoint
Method
Required parameters
Optional parameters
Notes

/api/login

POST

email, password

none

Returns authToken and userId. Use these values in X-Auth-Token and X-User-Id.

/api/logout

POST

auth headers

none

Invalidates the current auth token.

/api/userid

GET

email query parameter

none

Returns a user ID for a known email address. Requires the endpoint to be enabled and authorized in the target environment.

Datatable Read Operations

Endpoint
Method
Required parameters
Optional parameters
Notes

/api/microappdata

POST

microAppID

searchFilter, optSearchFilters, optViewFilters, optViewSort, optLimit, optIsVectorSearch, optVectorSearchString, optVectorSearchNumCandidates, buzzyFormat, resultContentType, optIsStatic, optExcludeMicroApps

Read many rows. Use searchFilter: [{ resourceID: microAppID, limit, skip }] for paging. Use optViewSort with raw sort fields such as { "sortVal": 1 } when you know the stored sort field.

/api/microappdata/row

POST

rowID

none

Read exactly one row by ID. Use this when the row is already known instead of filtering a collection.

/api/microappdata paging and sorting:

Best practices:

  • Always include both limit and skip for paged reads.

  • Use a stable sort when paging. Without a stable sort, rows inserted at similar times can move between pages.

  • Use embeddingRowID in optViewFilters when reading child rows for a parent row.

  • Keep buzzyFormat as false unless you specifically need raw internal row data.

Datatable Write Operations

Endpoint
Method
Required parameters
Optional parameters
Notes

/api/insertmicroapprow

POST

microAppID, rowData

embeddingRowID, viewers, teamViewers, userID, ignoreActionRules

Insert one row. rowData keys should be Datatable field labels.

/api/insertmicroapprows

POST

microAppID, rows

embeddingRowID, viewers, userID, ignoreActionRules

Batch insert. rows must be a non-empty array. Current maximum is 10,000 rows per request.

/api/updatemicroapprow

POST

rowID, rowData

microAppID, embeddingRowID, userID, ignoreActionRules

Update one row. Viewer and Team Viewer field values belong inside rowData using field labels.

/api/removemicroapprow

POST

rowID

none

Delete one row. This is destructive; confirm the row ID before calling it.

Best practices:

  • Use batch insert for imports or sync jobs; use single-row insert for UI-like actions.

  • Do not send system metadata such as _id, submitted, or parentResourceID inside rowData.

  • Use embeddingRowID when inserting child rows into a sub-table.

  • Use ignoreActionRules only for controlled admin or migration flows.

MicroApp Child And File Operations

Endpoint
Method
Required parameters
Optional parameters
Notes

/api/microappchild/list

POST

parent row and field identifiers documented on the endpoint page

none

Lists child file/image records for a row field.

/api/microappchild/create

POST

parent row ID, field ID, child content

none

Creates a child file/image record. Upload the file itself first when needed.

/api/microappchild/update

POST

child ID and update payload

none

Updates child metadata.

/api/microappchild/delete

POST

child ID

none

Deletes a child record.

/api/microappchild/s3copy

POST

source and destination S3/resource details

none

Copies a file between Buzzy-managed S3 locations.

/api/microappchild/uploadFileToS3

POST

file URL, target resource/field details

none

Downloads a file from the URL and uploads it to Buzzy S3.

Best practices:

  • Create or identify the parent row before creating child records.

  • Store file metadata on the child record and row field value according to the endpoint example.

  • Do not use public file URLs for sensitive files unless the app’s storage policy permits it.

AI App Creation

Endpoint
Method
Required parameters
Optional parameters
Notes

/api/createappwithprompt

POST

userEmail, appPrompt

attachments

Starts app generation asynchronously. Treat a successful response as kickoff accepted, then poll status.

/api/createappwithprompt/status

POST

appID

none

Returns generation status for an app created through the prompt endpoint.

Best practices:

  • Authenticate first with /api/login.

  • Record the returned editor URL or appID.

  • Poll status and then verify persisted resources rather than relying only on UI progress text.

Notifications

Endpoint
Method
Required parameters
Optional parameters
Notes

/api/sendnotification

POST

target user/email, app/resource context, message fields documented on the endpoint page

delivery options such as push-only, in-app-only, or badge-only modes

Requires the authenticated user to be allowed to edit the target app.

Best practices:

  • Keep notification content short and user-visible.

  • Do not include passwords, auth tokens, or private data in notification text.

  • Use delivery-mode options intentionally; push-only skips the in-app notification record.

Organizations, Teams, And Members

Endpoint
Method
Required parameters
Optional parameters
Notes

/api/insertorganization

POST

organization fields documented on the endpoint page

none

Creates an organization.

/api/readorganization

POST

organizationID

none

Reads one organization.

/api/updateorganization

POST

organizationID and update fields

none

Updates organization fields.

/api/deleteorganization

POST

organizationID

none

Deletes an organization. Confirm dependencies first.

/api/insertteam

POST

team name and organizationID

description or other documented fields

Creates a team inside an organization.

/api/readteam

POST

teamID

none

Reads one team.

/api/updateteam

POST

teamID and update fields

none

Updates team fields.

/api/deleteteam

POST

teamID

none

Deletes a team. Confirm memberships first.

/api/insertteammembers

POST

teamID, member list

role fields documented on the endpoint page

Adds members to a team.

/api/teammembers

POST

teamID or team IDs documented on the endpoint page

none

Lists team members.

/api/readteammember

POST

teamMemberID

/api/deleteteammember

POST

teamMemberID

none

Removes a member record.

/api/enforceteammembership

POST

organization/team/user membership details documented on the endpoint page

none

Use for controlled membership enforcement flows.

Best practices:

  • Prefer IDs from read responses over copied display names.

  • Confirm destructive operations before deleting organizations, teams, or memberships.

  • Keep membership changes auditable by recording the requesting user and target IDs in your integration logs, without logging auth tokens.
