Who has access to Glide API?
Glide API is available with Business and Enterprise plans.
Connecting to your Glide Tables via the API lets you automate your data management and integrate it with your own applications. With the API you can:
Add row to table
Set columns in row
Delete row
If you have the Business or Enterprise plan, you also have access to get rows and query Big Tables with SQL. Need to upgrade? Click here to see all our plans.
How do I access Glide API?
To get started:
Open the Data Editor.
At the bottom of any Glide Table, click Show API.
You can also go to the right-click on the table icon and select show API.
Show the API instructions screen.
When working with the API, you will pass a unique API Key, sometimes labeled a Bearer Token. It's a long sequence of random numbers and letters that looks like this: 2F2733E2-2B70-4291-8250-633B9E8F16AF Treat this as a password—it's a secret that you shouldn't share.
The API Instructions screen displays the calls to use to take the available actions.
