This is an overview of the changes to the Webflow APIs and related tools. To filter the list, select one or more tags.
New APIs for retrieving comments
Webflow’s API now supports operations to retrieve comments on a site with these new endpoints:
-
List all comment threads - Get all comment threads for a site.
-
Get comment thread - Retrieve a specific comment thread by ID with full details.
-
List comment replies - Get all replies for a specific comment thread.
Comment replies aren’t included in the initial thread listing. To retrieve replies, first get the Comment Thread ID from the list endpoint, then use that ID with the replies endpoint.
Support for option fields
- Create Option fields
Option fields let you define a predefined list of choices for a collection item. You can add these fields either when creating a new collection via the create collection endpoint or add them to existing collections using the create collection field endpoint.
Support for variable modes and form elements
Support for variable modes
Variable modes let you define multiple values for individual variables, creating distinct sets of values (“modes”) that can be switched and applied across a site.
Use the following endpoints to create and manage variable modes:
- Create variable mode
- Get all variable modes
- Get variable mode by ID
- Get variable mode by name
- Remove variable mode
- Get variable mode name
- Set variable mode name
Get and set variable values for a specific mode:
- Set mode-specific variable value
You can now include an option parameter to set a mode-specific variable value. - Get mode-specific variable value
You can now include an option parameter to get a mode-specific variable value.
