• Return All - Automatically paginate through all results
• Limit - Specify maximum number of results
• Page Size - Control results per page
• Sorting - Sort by any field (ascending/descending)
• Field Selection - Choose specific fields or use * for all

📎 Upload File

Upload files and attachments to any Fireberry record:

• Works with any object type (Account, Contact, Case, Task, etc.)
• Supports all file types
• Proper MIME type detection
• Handles binary data from form submissions, HTTP requests, and other sources
• Endpoint: POST /api/v2/record/{objectid}/{recordid}/files

Note: Check docker logs to see available binary field names if you encounter errors.

📝 Create Note

Create notes attached to records or standalone:

• Note Text - Supports plain text and HTML formatting
• Related Record - Optionally attach to any record (Account, Contact, etc.)
• Parent Note - Create threaded replies to existing notes
• Works with Object Type codes for flexible record linking
• Endpoint: POST /api/record/note

Query Modes

Simple Query Builder

Perfect for common filtering scenarios. Build queries visually:

Example 1: Find active customers with email

Rule 1: statecode = 0 (Combine with AND)
Rule 2: emailaddress1 Is Not Null

Result: statecode eq '0' and emailaddress1 ne null

Example 2: Find accounts starting with 'א' OR 'מ'

Rule 1: accountname Starts With 'א' (Combine with OR)
Rule 2: accountname Starts With 'מ'

Result: startswith(accountname, 'א') or startswith(accountname, 'מ')

Advanced Query Syntax

Fireberry supports powerful OData query operators:

• eq - Equal
• ne - Not equal
• gt - Greater than
• lt - Less than
• ge - Greater than or equal
• le - Less than or equal
• and - Logical AND
• or - Logical OR
• null - Check for NULL
• ne null - Check for NOT NULL
• startswith - String starts with
• endswith - String ends with
• contains - String contains

Advanced Query Examples:

accountname eq 'חברת דוגמה'

idnumber eq '123456789' and telephone1 ne null

emailaddress1 ne null or telephone1 ne null

accountname startswith 'א'

createdon gt '2025-01-01' and statuscode eq 1

Technical Details

Field Type Detection

The node uses Fireberry's metadata API to determine field types:

GUID → Field Type
b4919f2e-2996-48e4-a03c-ba39fb64386c → Picklist (Dropdown)
a8fcdf65-91bc-46fd-82f6-1234758345a1 → Lookup (Related Record)
6a34bfe3-fece-4da1-9136-a7b1e5ae3319 → Number
ce972d02-5013-46d4-9d1d-f09df1ac346a → DateTime
... and more

Lookup Field Loading

For each lookup field, the node:

1. Fetches field metadata to determine target Object Type
2. Queries target Object Type for all records
3. Uses PrimaryKey and PrimaryField from API response
4. Displays records in dropdown with proper names and IDs

Example: For primarycontactid (Primary Contact field):

• Detects it's a lookup to Object Type 2 (Contacts)
• Queries all Contacts
• Displays: "בנימין זאב (fc7af7af-...)", "Amit Bines (682a84b8-...)"
• Uses correct contactid when creating/updating

Migrating from v2.x

What's New in v3.0:

• ✅ ResourceMapper for better field mapping UI
• ✅ Dynamic dropdown support for Picklist fields
• ✅ Dynamic dropdown support for Lookup fields
• ✅ Improved field type detection
• ✅ Better error handling

Migration is Seamless:
