FAQPage Schema
How do I create secure API endpoints in Frappe?

Secure API endpoints in Frappe are created by defining the API location, method, and permission models. This approach ensures proper role and document permission checks, input validation, and exception handling for production deployment.

How does permission enforcement work for whitelisted Frappe methods?

Permission enforcement for whitelisted Frappe methods works by validating user roles and document-level permissions before executing logic. This ensures that only authorized users can access exposed data retrieval and update functions in custom applications.

What is the best way to handle API errors and exceptions in a Frappe application?

The best way to handle API errors in a Frappe application is to use structured exception management templates. These templates manage exceptions and return consistent responses, making your public services and integrations error-resilient.

Can I use Frappe whitelisted functions to build a public API for form submissions?

Yes, you can use Frappe whitelisted functions to build a public API for form submissions. This pattern allows you to securely expose functions while validating input and rate limiting requests for public services like contact forms.

Why do my Frappe API endpoints expose data to unauthorized users?

Frappe API endpoints expose data to unauthorized users when proper permission checks are missing. Implementing role and document permission validation ensures data protection and restricts access to sensitive information across internal modules.
