Can anybody give an hint on how to use the API from forms?

All routes are easy to find in here:

a simple usage example to get going would actually do:
curl -I --user admin:changemeXX http://localhost:8001/apps/forms/api/v1/forms -H “OCS-APIRequest: true”

moved to category dev - since i think it belongs to there…

@JimmyKater i think it is more how to use something already developed rather than develop work.
But you decide what is best! :slight_smile:

curl -u admin:changemeXX “http://localhost:8001/ocs/v1.php/apps/forms/api/v1/forms” -H “OCS-APIRequest: true”
{“message”:“CSRF check failed”}

curl -u admin:changemeXX “http://localhost:8001/ocs/v2.php/apps/forms/api/v1/forms” -H “OCS-APIRequest: true”
{“message”:“CSRF check failed”}

this works:
curl -u admin:changemeXX “http://localhost:8001/ocs/v1.php/apps/files_sharing/api/v1/shares” -H “OCS-APIRequest: true”

that’s prolly correct. but who else would know about the used APIs other than devs?
