furrywombat - fully working on this.  Sorry for lack of communication - head down in solving it. BTW - the problem wasn't caused by your large data call. Totally unrelated.  Not security related either. It was a dev ops blunder.

furrywombat - all servers in rotation have the API working. You should now be in the clear. We're still investigating what was wrong with the bum server....the API was the only service on there, apparently, that was down - checking the logs to see if we can figure out what the problem was.

Furrywombat - much appreciated.  No need to keep it off the servers, we'll stay transparant and open when we have server issues - assuming it is not security related. Confirmed, just found a server that is bad. We're taking it out of rotation right now...should be running in minutes....

furrywombat - we're looking into the API right now.  Are you still experiencing problems?  I see you've changed your body to "Delete" - does that mean things are okay now? Regardless, we are checking each of the servers to see if there are issues with any of them (just in case you were hitting a bum server and now are ...

Not sure I can tell what your table structure is from the post. So I'll guess that you have many vendors, and many different event types, and you want to join them together so you have a many:many. So, iIf you have a setup like this: TableName: Vendor Fields:  RecordID FullName TableName: ...

bsimmonds - you can put a button on a screen in Method that grabs the sessionID, using a Value From Session.  However, this is short-lived. When the user signs out, the sessionID will be invalid. Paul

In terms of the API, the docs are here: http://method.me/api/ Paul

ImTheirWebGuy - my apologies for the delay in getting an answer for you. We've shuffled teams around a little bit, and the API forum has been poorly managed by us. This will be rectified very soon - I promise. In the meantime, the Vendor_RecordID field is a read-only field.  Every dropdown field has a display and a value (RecordID). ...
