I need to get sample data from sales force developer account but i am unable to find any API to get any data from sales force.
Is there any API exposed by sales force to accomplish the task.
Salesforce exposes a large number of thoroughly documented APIs.
Access to record data is most commonly achieved through the standard REST API.
You may be most interested in the endpoints named under Working with Records, which provide access to record data, or Working with Searches and Queries.

I have my public API running on AWS API Gateway, and now I want to add API keys to it, basically to see "who is using which endpoint and how many time per month/week/whatever". My API already has user management logic, with its own users db table.
The part I need help with is the analytics part - say I have this up and running, I need to be able to extract some sort of report saying, for each user (by name), how many calls were made to each endpoint. So far, the closest I've gotten was https://stackoverflow.com/a/52361117/1514576 which gets me the info I need by API key. The part that I'm missing is how I could potentially cross-reference this data with my "users" database table.
I was hoping one of you had faced a similar problem and could share how you handled it.
I am building a chrome extension/third-party app that needs to read data from salesforce.
One way is to make a API call directly to salesforce whenever a user needs to query something, but this will create a large number of API calls.
What I attempted to do is to pull a ton of data from salesforce into a Google Sheet using the reports API, on an hourly basis, then query the data through Google App Script. But Salesforce's 2000 row limits for Reports and SOQL API, as well as the runtime limits posed by Google App Script, make my life difficult :(
What are the best ways to get data from salesforce for third party extensions?
Appreciate your help!
The bulk API can fulfill your needs as it hasn't a limitation on the number of returned rows.
Has anyone queried the Azure Graph REST API by licenses? I can't find any examples using REST online. We use REST for our operations and a need has come up to generate license reports and I'd like to be able to execute queries based on license codes.
Any help would be appreciate. Thanks for your time.
According to your description, it seems that you’d like to filter users by assignedLicenses that is a multi-valued complex type. From this documentation, we could find that currently the API seems not support querying of (filtering) a multi-valued complex type (assignedLicenses).
As a workaround, you could try to get users from API and leave the filtering on the client side.
I am confused about the cost of the alchemy api. I am trying to figure out the cost of 3000 requests but it looks as if each request costs $0.007 which seems rather expensive. or is it $0.007 per 1000 requests?
You are referring to the standard pay per use plan. Basically the main concept is the API Event, not the request.
As stated in Alchemy API Service terms:
Events are calculated for and included in the information returned by each API call. Calculations vary by the type of service:
Events related to the use of the IBM AlchemyLanguage API will be calculated based on the number of enrichments returned by the API. Many of the API calls require 1 event; some API calls require multiple events.
Events related to the use of the IBM AlchemyVision API will be calculated based on the number of enrichments returned by the API. Many of the API calls require 4 event; some API calls require multiple events.
Events related to the use of the IBM AlchemyData News API will be calculated based on the following facets:
a) the number of enrichments returned by the API; b) the volume of data returned by the API; and c) the length of time, as specified in the API call, used to determine the number of news objects included for analysis.
In the Free plan the customer is entitled to a free allotment of 1.000 API Events per day across all services. In the Standard plan you will be charged per API Event.
The Standard plan is convenient when you need many concurrent calls.
If you are not deploying a large-scale application maybe using some cache services in the right way you can work in the free tier.
Take a look at Pricing for AlchemyAPI Services to read a detailed description of what is a transaction and how AlchemyAPI define those.
Looking in at the DATA.com API we do have a license for 1000 API queries a day. My question is we are looking at a different CRM to handle our outbound sales processes other than SalesForce.
Base CRM looks like it is capable of handling our needs for our business and account processes. Is it possible to have the Base API send queries to the Data.com API and return the results?
I also see there is an API purchase within the SalesForce API. When you conduct a search API query does it require you to purchase the results if you have a license already in place to use Data.com?
Our goal is to have a primary CRM pull information from Data.com or another source for lead information and display it in the new CRM.
If none of this is possible with the solution I am looking at might you suggest other platforms.
Thank you!
Unfortunately, we don't currently offer the triggers to query Data.com's database. However, there are a couple of other ways to integrate Data.com with Base. You can either use a polling-driven trigger to Data.com, you could attempt to configure a workflow in Data.com to send this data over to Base, or you could use an import to pull this data into Base (as many of our customers have done). I hope that helps!
