Custom API Manager

This XrmToolBox tool allows you to manage (create, update, delete) custom APIs and request parameters/response properties of the custom APIs (developed by David Rivard).

The out-of-the-box experience of managing the custom API and its request parameters/response properties can be a bit clunky. Creating/updating those items open up in the legacy web client and the associated views for request parameters and response properties on the custom API form are showing an error.

To manage the custom APIs in one place, you can use this tool to list all of the custom APIs in the environment, update/delete the customisable ones or create a new one.
