In the latest release of types there is a new feature: Introduced a public API for retrieving custom field groups, field definitions, field types and field instances.

Is there documentation on this new API?

Thanks

Hi Steve,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

This changelog seems to be referencing to the REST API.

Then this is the documentation for it.

Thanks,

I was hoping for a local (non Rest) API.

And it would be nice if the change logs had links to relevant documentation.

Hi Steve,

Actually there is a documentation link to it Under the Setting to enable this in the Toolset->Settings->Custom Content under the REST API settings.

Thanks,
Shane
