Overview

The Yida platform provides a rich set of open API solutions for developers to use. For different scenarios, developers can use different open API solutions to implement their business requirements. The differences and applicable scenarios for different open APIs are as follows:

• Yida JS-API - Mainly used to call certain front-end functional APIs in the Yida designer's action panel or variable binding scenarios, such as string formatting, getting form control values, etc. For specific usage, see Yida JS-API Documentation;
• Cross-Application Data Source API - Mainly used in the Yida designer's remote API configuration to perform CRUD operations on Yida application data, such as querying form data, initiating processes, etc. For specific usage, see Cross-Application Data Source API Documentation;
• DingTalk JS-API - Mainly used to call certain JSAPIs provided by the DingTalk client within the DingTalk app when using the developed solutions, such as native popups, getting device information, etc. For specific usage, see DingTalk JS-API Documentation;
• Server-side Open API - Mainly used to call the open APIs provided by Yida on the server side. The functionality is basically the same as the Cross-Application Data Source API, but is mainly used for server-side calls, so it includes an authentication process. For specific usage, see Server-side Open API Documentation;
