# API Access

The **REST API** allows you to access your MeltingSpot data without using the MeltingSpot user interface. With **API access**, you can perform operations and integrate MeltingSpot into your applications as you see fit.&#x20;

You can use **REST API** tools to create, manipulate, and search data in MeltingSpot by sending **HTTP requests** to MeltingSpot endpoints. Depending on where you send requests, you access and exploit different pieces of information, called resources. Resources include records, query results, metadata, etc.
