Platform API overview: SOAP, REST, custom, and more
- 1. Platform API overview Samuel De Rycke Salesforce Developer at ABSI samuel.de.rycke@absi.be @SamuelDeRycke
- 3. SOAP API • SOAP/WSDL • 2 Versions: • Enterprise: Strongly typed, Org specific • Partner: Dynamic, Requires datamodel inspection • Extensive API, well suited for system integrations • https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/
- 4. REST API • Access data over REST • XML or JSON • Lightweight • Best suited for browser or mobile applications • https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api_rest/
- 5. Custom APIs • Apex code • SOAP or REST • XML, JSON or custom formats • Synchronous • Write your own API inApex • https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Apex_Web_Services
- 6. Custom APIs – Use Case • Challenge: External mobile application needs to store multiple records in multiple objects in a transactional process. • Issue: RESTApi handles insert and update calls in separate requests per record • Solution: We wrote our own custom Apex REST endpoint to accept a custom datatype which was wrapper around the salesforce sObjects. Now we could handle the transactional process in Apex.
