FieldProxy REST API Integration Guide

The FieldProxy REST API provides developers with powerful tools to integrate AI-powered field service management capabilities into their existing systems. With comprehensive endpoints for managing work orders, technicians, customers, and assets, the API enables seamless automation of field operations. This guide walks you through everything you need to know about implementing FieldProxy API integration for your business.

Modern field service operations require flexible integration options that connect disparate systems and automate workflows. The FieldProxy REST API delivers enterprise-grade connectivity with unlimited user support and custom workflow capabilities. Whether you're building mobile applications, connecting ERP systems, or creating automated reporting dashboards, our API provides the foundation for digital transformation in field service management.

Understanding FieldProxy REST API Architecture

The FieldProxy API follows RESTful design principles, making it intuitive for developers familiar with modern web services. All endpoints use standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) and return JSON-formatted responses. Authentication is handled through secure API tokens that can be generated from your FieldProxy dashboard, ensuring that all integrations maintain enterprise-level security standards while remaining easy to implement.

Our API architecture supports both synchronous and asynchronous operations, allowing you to choose the appropriate pattern for your use case. Real-time webhooks notify your systems of important events like work order completions or technician status changes. Rate limiting is generous for production environments, and our unlimited user pricing model ensures that API usage scales with your business without additional per-seat costs.

Getting Started with API Authentication

Authentication with the FieldProxy API begins by generating an API token from your account settings. Each token can be scoped with specific permissions, allowing you to create read-only tokens for reporting integrations or full-access tokens for bidirectional synchronization. Tokens should be included in the Authorization header of all API requests using the Bearer authentication scheme, following industry-standard security practices.

For development environments, we recommend creating separate API tokens to maintain clear separation between testing and production systems. Token rotation is straightforward through the dashboard, and you can revoke compromised tokens immediately without affecting other integrations. Our AI-powered platform ensures that authentication processes remain secure while minimizing friction in the development workflow.

Work Order Management Endpoints

Work order endpoints form the core of the FieldProxy API, enabling complete lifecycle management from creation through completion. You can create work orders programmatically with all necessary details including customer information, location data, required skills, and priority levels. The API supports advanced filtering and search capabilities, allowing you to retrieve work orders based on status, technician assignment, date ranges, or custom field values specific to your industry needs.

Updating work orders through the API maintains full audit trails, ensuring compliance and transparency in field operations. You can modify assignments, update statuses, add notes, attach photos, and record completion details all through simple API calls. Integration with field service management workflows becomes seamless when your systems can automatically create and update work orders based on triggers from other business applications like CRM or ERP systems.

Bulk operations allow you to efficiently manage large volumes of work orders, essential for businesses handling hundreds or thousands of service requests daily. The API supports batch creation, updates, and status changes while maintaining data integrity and validation. Error handling provides detailed feedback on any validation issues, making it easy to implement robust integration logic that handles edge cases gracefully.

Technician and Resource Management APIs

Managing your field workforce through the API provides unprecedented flexibility in scheduling and dispatch operations. Technician endpoints allow you to retrieve availability, skills, certifications, and current location data to make intelligent assignment decisions. With unlimited user support, you can integrate as many technicians as needed without worrying about licensing constraints, making the API ideal for growing field service organizations.

Real-time technician status updates enable dynamic scheduling adjustments based on job completion times or unexpected delays. The API provides endpoints for tracking technician locations, updating availability status, and managing time-off requests programmatically. Integration with mobile applications becomes straightforward when technicians can update their status and receive new assignments through API-driven mobile interfaces that sync seamlessly with your FieldProxy deployment.

Customer and Asset Integration

Customer management endpoints synchronize contact information, service history, and billing details between FieldProxy and your existing CRM or accounting systems. The API supports creating and updating customer records with complete address information, contact preferences, and custom attributes. This bidirectional sync ensures that customer data remains consistent across all business systems, eliminating manual data entry and reducing errors in property preservation and inspection workflows.

Asset management APIs track equipment, installations, and service locations associated with customers. You can record asset details including serial numbers, installation dates, warranty information, and maintenance schedules. For businesses managing complex equipment installations or recurring service agreements, the asset API provides the foundation for preventive maintenance scheduling and service history tracking that improves customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

Quote and Estimate Management Integration

The quote and estimate endpoints streamline the sales-to-service workflow by allowing automated quote generation based on service request details. Your sales systems can create detailed estimates through the API, including line items, pricing, terms, and conditions. Once approved, quotes can be automatically converted to work orders, maintaining data consistency throughout the customer journey and eliminating redundant data entry between quote management and field service execution.

Integration with pricing databases and product catalogs enables dynamic quote generation that reflects current pricing and availability. The API supports complex pricing scenarios including tiered pricing, volume discounts, and custom pricing rules specific to customer segments or service types. Automated quote delivery through email or customer portals becomes possible when your systems can generate and retrieve quote documents programmatically through the FieldProxy API.

Webhook Configuration and Event Handling

Webhooks provide real-time notifications when important events occur in your FieldProxy account, eliminating the need for constant polling. You can configure webhooks for work order status changes, technician check-ins, customer updates, and dozens of other event types. Each webhook delivers a JSON payload with complete event details to your specified endpoint, enabling immediate response to field service events in your integrated systems.

Webhook security includes signature verification to ensure that events originate from FieldProxy and haven't been tampered with in transit. Retry logic handles temporary outages of your webhook endpoints, and you can view webhook delivery history in the dashboard to troubleshoot integration issues. For businesses requiring 24-hour deployment timelines, webhooks accelerate integration by providing immediate event visibility without complex polling infrastructure.

Custom Workflows and Automation

The FieldProxy API enables sophisticated automation scenarios that match your unique business processes. You can build custom workflows that automatically assign work orders based on technician skills and availability, send customer notifications at specific milestones, or trigger inventory replenishment when parts are consumed. With support for custom workflow creation, the API provides the flexibility to implement industry-specific processes without compromise.

Integration with business intelligence and reporting tools becomes straightforward when you can extract field service data through the API for analysis. Custom dashboards, executive reports, and operational metrics can be built using your preferred analytics platform while leveraging real-time data from FieldProxy. This API-driven approach to analytics ensures that decision-makers have access to current information without manual report generation or data export processes.

The combination of comprehensive API endpoints, unlimited user licensing, and AI-powered field service management creates a platform that scales with your business. Whether you're managing a small team or coordinating hundreds of technicians across multiple regions, the FieldProxy API provides enterprise capabilities at a predictable cost structure that supports growth without penalizing success.

Implementing the FieldProxy REST API transforms field service operations by connecting systems, automating workflows, and providing real-time visibility across your organization. With comprehensive documentation, responsive support, and a developer-friendly architecture, integration projects can be completed quickly while maintaining the flexibility to evolve as your business needs change. The API-first approach ensures that FieldProxy adapts to your technology ecosystem rather than forcing you to adapt to rigid software constraints.
