In FileMaker Server 16, under Web Publishing you will find a brand-new entry called FileMaker Data API.
The truth is - it’s even better than that. It’s open to any kind of integration, not just web services.
Any application or system that can make an HTTP call and works with received JSON data in response can use FileMaker Data API. It’s a very powerful and welcome addition to the FileMaker product line. It essentially turns your FileMaker app into a web service.

Scoop.it!
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is an open standard format to send data that consists of an object with name-value pairs. JSON has its origins with JavaScript, but as many other programming languages have adopted it as an alternate to XML, since JSON is far less verbose than XML. Many web services return data in JSON or XML, and sometimes both are offered as options. FileMaker 16 introduces native functions to create and extract data from JSON, making interactions with web services easier and more streamlined.
This article focuses on how to create JSON objects from within FileMaker 16 with new, native functions.

Every one of us FileMaker developers comes from a different background. Some of us are graphic designers, web developers, coders, teachers, or mathematicians, and we expect FileMaker to work like other software. For example, if your focus is graphic design, every year when the new version is released, you probably hope for more design tools.
