**Originally posted by Johann du Toit** Hi, we have several clients (about 10 now) who want to be able to see which service was assigned to a job (from the services add-on), and preferably also the questions and answers from the online form. Even if it’s just a text blob like the bit which appears in the diary feed, eg: Johann’s booking Service 2:18 PM 5/08/2020 by Developer 1 hour How many people 2 We can parse out what we need. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. Johann Wink Reports ---

Hi Andres, Here are the API options that line up with what Johann was trying to extract (service selection plus the Q&A blob/answers). 1. Identifying which “Service” was applied to a Job (via job fields the Service can pre-fill) When you create a Service, you can set default “Job Details” that populate the job card (including Job Description, Job Category, and Badges). Those same fields are available on the Job record via GET /job/{uuid}.json (for example job\_description, category\_uuid, and badges). 2. Getting the customer’s submitted online booking text (the “text blob”) via the Inbox API Inbox messages include message\_text / message\_html, have a message\_type that includes online\_booking, and include converted\_to\_job\_uuid to link the message to the Job it was converted into. You can list messages via GET /inboxmessage.json and then retrieve a specific one via GET /inboxmessage/{uuid}.json. 3. Getting Q&A as structured data (Form Responses) If the questions/answers are captured as a ServiceM8 Form, you can pull them from Form Responses, where field\_data contains the answers and the response links back via regarding\_object / regarding\_object\_uuid. For example: GET /api\_1.0/formresponse.json?$filter=regarding\_object eq ‘job’ and regarding\_object\_uuid eq ‘{job\_uuid}’. 4. (Optional) Reconstructing the booking time/duration from schedule records Job Activities can be listed via GET /jobactivity.json and filtered by job\_uuid. For example: GET /api\_1.0/jobactivity.json?$filter=job\_uuid eq ‘{job\_uuid}’. If the data still isn’t showing up where you expect for a specific workflow, email [support@servicem8.com](mailto:support@servicem8.com) with an example job UUID and we’ll confirm which endpoint it’s stored under. Thanks, Cody
