Quip API

This is a simple presentation of the Quip API and its methods. To get more information (parameters, response data, ...) use the Quip API Reference

Javascript wrapper

var Quip = require('Quip');
var Quip = new Quip({
    // Quip Access Token (required)
    accessToken: 'accessToken'
});

This is how to use an API on the Quip object

Quip.api.method(params, callback);

All arguments are optional by default :

  • params : object hash with request parameters
  • callback : function called with 2 arguments (error, data)

The data arguments passed to the callback is an object hash, holding the response data. (see API documents)

Both the params and callback are optional, so you can call any method these ways :

// Both params and callback
Quip.api.method(params, callback);
// Only params parameter
Quip.api.method(params);
// Only callback parameter
Quip.api.method(callback);
// No parameter
Quip.api.method();

N.B : If the params parameter is not passed, but the method expects required parameters, an Error will be thrown.

Examples

// Threads API - Get recent threads
Quip.th.getRecentThreads(callback);
// Threads API - Create a new document
Quip.th.createDocument({title: 'Title', content: '<h1>Title</h1><p>First paragraph</p>'}, callback);
// Threads API - Edit a document by prepending content
Quip.th.editDocument({thread_id: 'threadId', content: '<p>New Section</p>', location: Quip.Operation.PREPEND}, callback);
// Messages API - Create a new message in a thread_id
Quip.msg.newMessage({thread_id: 'threadId', content: 'New Message'}, callback);
// Folders API - Create a new folder with a green cover
Quip.fdr.newFolder({title: 'My New Folder', color: Quip.Color.GREEN}, callback);
// Folders API - Update folder_id with a red cover
Quip.fdr.updateFolder({folder_id: 'folderId', color: Quip.Color.RED}, callback);
// Users API - Get all user's contacts
Quip.usr.getContacts(callback);
