Curious about CollectionSpace? Check out one of our upcoming community events: CollectionSpace Tech Talk: Focus on APIs Thursday, 7/30, 12pm EDT Join Richard Millet, Technical Lead, and Chad Nelson, Developer, for a technical walkthrough of the CollectionSpace API principles. All of CollectionSpace's exposed services offer a REST-based Application Programming Interface (API). This API allows you to perform CRUD+L operations (create, read, update, and delete of individual resources, plus list operations such as list all, keyword search, and partial term matching) on a variety of entities that represent an organization's collections and collections management activities, such as objects, acquisitions, and loans. You can also use this same API to manage a number of the internal entities within a CollectionSpace system, such as user accounts.
