Organization & application managementΒΆ

Your application can use the App Services API to request a variety of management operations on App Services resources. For example, your application can request an access token to use in operations on entities and collections. Or it can create an organization to contain the applications, entities, and collections for a company, team, or project.

Your application makes requests through the API using HTTP methods such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE, and specifies the pertinent resource URL. For management operations, the URL begins with /management/. See Using the API for general usage information, such as how to construct an API request.

The following table lists and describes resources accessible through the App Services API on which your application can perform management operations. Click on a resource for further details about the resource and its methods.
