The Glide API v2.0 is a RESTful API that allows you to programmatically interact with data on the Glide platform. These are the developer docs for version 2.0 of the API, initially released in July of 2024.

This API is currently in Public Beta. You may encounter minor bugs while using the API.

​
Functionality

This version of the Glide API only works with the Glide Big Tables data source. An attempt to use this API with any other data source will return an error.

​
Location

The Glide API v2.0 is located at: https://api.glideapps.com/.

​
Pricing

  • Adding, updating, or deleting rows will use 0.01 updates per row changed
  • Getting rows will use 0.001 updates per row retrieved

If you use a stash, updates will be charged only when you commit your stash. Deleting a stash will not use updates.

All other calls will not use updates, such as creating tables, listing tables, or getting row versions.

​
Previous Versions

This Glide API v2.0 differs from Glide API v1.0 in the following ways:

  • Only operates on Glide Big Tables data source
  • Uses fewer updates for reading, adding, editing, and deleting data
  • Capable of ingesting large data sets through the use of stashing
  • Does not require scoping by Glide app (i.e., App ID is not required)
