Hey so I can see the endpoint to access attachments but I fail to see how I can download or find a URL for those attachents. IE I would like to display the invoices and photos from a job card in my app. What options do I have here

Is there any way to get the currently authenticated user details from either the API (once authenticated) or during the oauth process? I only need email address (or some unique identifier) but the docs don't seem to suggest its possible...

I can see attachment name and filetype - but no way to retrieve the attachment itself... Ironically getting badges PNG files was easy! See below - how to get the same for the attachments?? https://servicem8-nvc.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/servicem8_ec2280/custom-badge-images/badge_7eaab77a-5b29-4e7e-8113-3329696a072b.png?X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Security-Token=FQoDYXdzEPf%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2F%2FwEaDN0rtl1Z%2FSARF3olUyK3AxZlhr4pBqtgPeoVrqCv9QQg%2FdawFmbTj3f89o%2BVPoh2wZJXxD%2Ffz5HrpqnzzFVvpHAQ%2B69GZ%2F0r12A%2BlUNKJh%2BkiiefqC6drvQzuvfz3D9AsxMuPCM%2F5oe%2FpbtKjrNPG8hQQO%2FOMwknkyVehbJRKMMeuIeMoOXYN58DaBgAAugZamLoLOhbkNzVL4NKugdZhIjsNRbiGkO10i%2FIO4oeIxZjYAsQgDb3WzJypbAtWhMyhqRbQ4e1yTlK%2FkmCVynmSGnsY8gfkQrq76nZjeyTfmMks9Sx4%2BEfZ3lEWQCC6mNci1sOO%2BofRbb%2FC3C2SPCwEKuycpvmf1sAAeR1oAmv9EKIC9rG3SjLZICAvCSaHap8yvTHR6H4%2BhfcVDUdzcyVnkLsibecLUG%2FtERlx%2BCXlldo4dmy%2BCOcyde9yYZ8ohBoDKR4b7Xww5c8UIWp89N5clcXB%2BzlyAIA66%2F%2B652t3Mx2TJJfsTDSOmPHjCI%2FJB9RtMcQlTDkps24y%2BD5Sg2ERSsl6kITyIVK902%2Fj7gbeD%2FqobIPGW40cD2Y0Y9k8%2FZIw%2FYbkViSjVJPSquKpGOcA0EnZuFdnHYow%2Bm01gU%3D&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=ASIAISH2T5TC3V2Y7I3A%2F20180410%2Fus-west-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20180410T225154Z&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=d094813e825837705a176245c1d6c22a75a6c0fb4ce097c162da30d2a58bc086

Hi, We need to create quite a number of forms and were wondering if we can have a readable export of the questions on a form? It would greatly optimize the creation of forms by copy pasting etc in a normal text editor. Can be in a Json format no problem. Would such a thing exist?

I am in the process of planning an integration between ServiceM8 and a popular form system. I just want to do a simple process of creating a new contact in ServiceM8 but it seems like the process of doing this is cumbersome and perhaps prone to issues. So it's my understanding to create a contact using the API you must first create a client as your API call to create a contact must have a company uuid. So step 1: create the client, step 2 create the contact. But the problem is that when creating a client there's no response reporting the created clients uuid. So therefore you need to make 3 API calls?!?! So step 1: create a client, step 2: list all clients and do a lookup between the original company name and the company names provided in the API call, step 3: add the new contact to the client. As I mentioned this process seems cumbersome, ideally you could just make 1 call to create a client and contact, or at worst on the first call it provides a response with the companies uuid. If I make these 3 API calls is the system fast enough to generate this newly created data in the later API calls? Is there a better way of doing this? Thanks for your help,

Is there a way to retrieve the equivalent value of UUID's of badges, companies, categories, and job queues? I already found the equivalent values of staff users manually as they aren't too many. I am working on excel reports and want to show the original values instead of the UUID's.

Can you develop your own booking forms and then integrate with ServiceM8? Would this be through the REST API or you'd create an ADD-ON? Any advanced info would be really helpful. Kind Regards, Phillip Blake

Can you please provide me with example data to *create* an attachment on a job in ServiceM8? https://developer.servicem8.com/reference#post-attachment-create

I can happily read and write using the standard ServiceM8 API but when I try to simply list all custom fields using the API (https://api.servicem8.com/custom_fields_1.0), I am told I am not authorised.

Hi team, We're a consultancy with 1000's of recurring jobs (mainly quarterly and annual), we're aware you can't bulk upload jobs at the moment but that will cause is considerable pain manually adding each recurring job. Support asked if I could pose the question here if it's possible, given the correct format, that we could provide a csv of all the jobs which could then be injected one time into the system?
