Overview

Welcome to the Screendoor API documentation. We welcome any questions, comments, or feedback. Send an email to support@thecitybase.com if you’d like to get in touch.

All of our API endpoints start with https://screendoor.dobt.co/api/.

Authentication

Pagination

curl --include "https://screendoor.dobt.co/api/sites/1/projects?page=5&v=1&api_key=d9763djh1274"

# Example Response
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Link: <https://screendoor.dobt.co/api/site/1/projects?page=1>; rel="first">,
  <https://screendoor.dobt.co/api/site/1/projects?page=173>; rel="last">,
  <https://screendoor.dobt.co/api/site/1/projects?page=6>; rel="next">,
  <https://screendoor.dobt.co/api/site/1/projects?page=4>; rel="prev">
Total: 4321

We use the Link header for pagination. When multiple pages of a resource exist, you’ll see a header like the one in the example response on the right.

By default, each page will contain up to 25 records, at which point, you’ll need to pass a ?page= parameter in order to retrieve the next page.

You can change the number of records that are returned by adding a ?per_page= parameter. For performance reasons, we limit this number to 100.

Versioning

The current API version is 1.

Query Parameters

direction "asc" Either "asc" or "desc"
trash false Set this to true to view responses that are in the trash.

In addition to the parameters above, this endpoint accepts the same query parameters as Screendoor’s responses page.

To find the correct parameters, consider using advanced search to construct a query. Then copy the ?advanced_search= part of the resulting URL.

(Since API keys aren’t associated with individual users, you will not be able to use query parameters that refer to “my rating.”)

Spec for the response hash

In each key-value pair, the key is the ID of your response field, and the value depends on the type of that field. (You can find the ID of a response field in Screendoor’s form builder, at the bottom of the “Edit field” pane.) See an example of a complete payload above.
