Data Model

The provider models the data in API into a list of tables that can be queried using standard SQL statements.

Generally, querying API tables is the same as querying a table in a relational database. Sometimes there are special cases, for example, including a certain column in the WHERE clause might be required to get data for certain columns in the table. This is typically needed for situations where a separate request must be made for each row to get certain columns.

CurrentUser	Table	Get the current user.
ElementCategories	Table	Get accesses for the user.
Entry	Table	Get a specific list entry.
ListActivities	Table	Returns list activities.
ListElements	Table	Get all elements in a list.
ListEntries	Table	Get filtered/grouped list entries for list view.
