Items

Operations

Items are entries in an app. If you think of app as a table, items will be the rows in the table. Items consists of some basic information as well values for each of the fields in the app. For each field there can be multiple values (F.ex. there can be multiple links to another app) and multiple types of values (F.ex. a field of type date field consists of both a start date and an optional end date).
