Tutorial video: API Templates, and how to dynamically generate pages from a spreadsheet

Our API allows you to interact with our system programmatically, allowing you to do things like:

  • Create and manage sub-accounts (Basic accounts) under your Premium account.
  • If you have the ability to create Premium accounts (multi-user accounts) under your main account, you can create and manage these accounts programmatically via the API. (If you don’t have the ability to set up multi-user accounts and are interested in this feature, please contact our support for details).
  • Programmatically generate pages (or sites) based on the API templates you’ve designed. This is useful for situations where you need to create a large number of similar pages – for inventory, listings, or landing pages for ads, or build your mobile directory from a spreadsheet.
