Getting started
Create a workspace, add your first project, and define your field schema.
Documentation
Build and publish your live JSON endpoint quickly.
Start with the quickstart path, then use this reference to understand the publish workflow, endpoint behavior, and practical implementation patterns.
Open quickstartHow it works
Draft then publish
Edit draft payloads safely, then publish snapshots when content is approved.
Stable endpoint
Call one protected live endpoint from apps, ads, kiosks, and web experiences.
Controlled updates
Keep business teams fast while avoiding full CMS and backend maintenance work.
Data model
One project maps to one JSON payload. You can combine primitives, primitive lists, and repeatable object groups while preserving predictable output shape.
- Use draft mode for in-progress content and validation.
- Publish creates a stable live snapshot for clients.
- Rotate API keys without changing project IDs or endpoint URL.
Yeah, I need an API... but what is it?
Think of JSON like a labeled tool box where each label points to one value, like wrench, hammer, or drill. An API is the delivery helper that hands that tool box to your website or app when it asks to see your tools. An endpoint is the exact address your app calls to pick up that box to search your toolkit. With Simple Data API, you update your content, publish it, and every app using that endpoint gets the same fresh version.
Common use cases
Teams use Simple Data API for rapid content updates without CMS overhead.
