Hi there, I am wondering what programming languages are required for the ServiceM8 API? I am currently on the look out for a backend web developer but before I search for one I need to know the programming languages to find the right person. ServiceM8's customer service team told me Python for web and Swift for app. Can I confirm this? I am not sure what the difference is here (I know they are both programming languages, but not sure when they'd be used). Thanks! Dmitri.

When creating a job through the API we then use the sms api to send an sms to the client, but the sms does not appear in the notes section of the job once sent? Do we have to link the messageID to the job somehow?

Hi all, I'm trying to find out if there are "OPEN API" specification files for ServiceM8's APIs Does anyone know where I can get these? Many thanks Andre

It looks like if multiple create requests are made to the company create endpoint at the same time with the same name property set both can(incorrectly) succeed. There is a constraint on the ServiceM8 side that normally prevents this but I somehow have the same companies with exactly the same name created 1 second apart from each other. Subsequent requests to the update endpoint also fail until I delete one of the records.

We are using API url to fetch Jobs data. https://developer.servicem8.com/reference/get-job-all But we are getting different scheduled datetime('job_is_scheduled_until_stamp') in JSON response E.g. actual scheduled time is 1:00 PM with duration of 1 hour(While booking). We're getting 2:00 PM and if duration is 30 mins, we're getting 1:30 PM in API response. We want actual time without added duration. OR can we get separate duration time field in job data?
