13 | {htxt id="param-name"} | |
14 | <p> | |
15 | {ts}Choose a parameter from the list, or select "other" for manual entry.{/ts} | |

20 | {ts}Operator{/ts} | |
21 | {/htxt} | |
22 | {htxt id="param-op"} | |
23 | <p> | |
24 | {ts}The default operator is equals (=), and is the only operator supported for "create" or "delete" actions.{/ts} | |
25 | </p> | |
26 | <p> | |
27 | {ts}Some apis support a special syntax to allow other operators for "get" type actions. Choosing a different operator will automatically use this syntax, although it may not work with every api.{/ts} | |

32 | {ts}Parameter Value{/ts} | |
33 | {/htxt} | |
34 | {htxt id="param-value"} | |
35 | <p> | |
36 | {ts}The following formats are accepted:{/ts} | |
37 | <ul> | |
38 | <li>{ts}Simple values such as numbers, true, false and null.{/ts}</li> | |
39 | <li>{ts}Strings. You may include quotes around the string to ensure it's not interpreted otherwise, e.g. "false".{/ts}</li> | |

40 | <li>{ts}Arrays in js format, e.g. [1, 2, 3, 'foo', 'bar', 'baz'].{/ts}</li> |
41 | <li>{ts}Associative arrays in js object format, e.g. {ldelim}first: "one", second: "two", third: 3{rdelim}.{/ts}</li> | |
42 | <li>{ts}A comma-separated list will automatically be turned into an array for multivalue operations, or you can explicitly use the js array format above.{/ts}</li> | |

48 | {ts}Api Chaining{/ts} | |
49 | {/htxt} | |
50 | {htxt id="api-chain"} | |
51 | <p>{ts}Chains allow you to execute api calls on the results of this one.{/ts}</p> | |
52 | <p>{ts}Example: When creating a contact, you can chain the Email.create api to add email addresses for them.{/ts}</p> | |
53 | <p>{ts}Disambiguation: api chains are different from joins in that chaining executes a separate api call for every result returned from the main call.{/ts}</p> | |

56 | {htxt id="api-join-title"} | |
57 | {ts}Api Joins{/ts} | |
58 | {/htxt} | |
59 | {htxt id="api-join"} | |
60 | <p>{ts}Join this api call to return values from or filter on a related entity.{/ts}</p> | |
61 | <p>{ts}The new fields will be selectable from the "Params" and "Fields to return" lists.{/ts}</p> | |
62 | <p>{ts}Example: If the api entity is Email, you can also fetch the display name of the contact this email belongs to.{/ts}</p> | |
63 | <p>{ts}Disambiguation: Joins are different from api chaining in that joins execute as a single SELECT query, and only work for api "get" operations.{/ts}</p> | |
