As a FileMaker developer, I create databases that are designed to store various kinds of data on a daily basis, for a lot of clients in very different fields of work ; one of the most common modules I usually develop is a “Contacts” module, where my clients can enter the info they have on their own clients, for example. Usually, between the classic “First name”, “Last name” or “e-mail address” fields, I just add a “Gen

myFMbutler — myFMApiLibrary for Javascript, one library to rule them all, again The Lesterius Team has developed a Javascript library to make the FileMaker Data Api 18 easier to use. Lesterius co-creates FileMaker Platform based solutions with their customers. Sharing knowledge is in our DNA, that’s why we developed this library to make the FileMaker Data API easy-to-use with Javascript. Photo by Artem Beliaikin on PexelsWhy do we provide a wrapper while the data REST API already works? To make it simple. In our library, we’ve already coded all cURL requests. You don’t need to read the FileM

Importing data in a FileMaker database from a “flat file” Importing data can be easy when doing it table after table, with well structured data; but what about importing a “flat file”, where data destined to be put in different tables are mixed? Let’s take a simple FileMaker database, where companies are linked to multiple contacts. Here is a simple “company” record, linked to a contact in a portalIn order to have this kind of layouts, the relationship between the companies and the contacts is set up so that the foreign key IdCompany in the Contacts table is linked to the primary key IdCompan

Prerequisites This article assumes that you already have experience with Symfony. Before using the DataApi from FileMaker, make sure that your FileMaker Server has a proper SSL certificate installed. First you
