This example will guide you through creating a simple REST API endpoint that retrieves and returns data from two database tables. For our example we will use an Employee and an Office table.
In this example we will build the logic manually, however, you can also get started quicker by using the Autogenerating APIs from tables option for one of the tables first.
Open the workspace
Open the example workspace by pointing your browser to the URL:
http://[HOST]:[PORT]/ide/papihello
Where host is the server you installed Profound.js on and port is the port number Profound.js is running on. If the installation is on your PC or Mac computer, use localhost.
OR open the workspace from the ide with the Open button and then select the example workspace:
Create API file
Create a new API json file by clicking the New button and select API file. The file will be opened and the Canvas, Parameters, API Routes, and Properties panel will be initialized.
