This feature requires a CommCare Software Plan

This feature (API Access) is only available to CommCare users with a Standard Plan or higher. For more details, see the CommCare Software Plan page.

Data APIs

These APIs are intended for building project specific applications and integrations, including:

  • Custom end-user applications that address project-specific needs
  • Custom integrations with external back-end systems, such as an electronic patient record system 

In the following, [version] should always be replaced with one of v0.4, v0.3, etc. These documents only describe the latest version - prior versions remain available only to support backwards compatibility with deployed systems, not for general use. The latest version is v0.5.

You can browse and test the Data APIs using the CommCare API Explorer.

Implementation of URL Endpoints

All URL endpoints should be utilized as part of a cURL authentication command. For more information, please review CommCare's API Authentication Documentation.
