File Maker integration

FileMaker Claris database integration

FileMaker (now Claris FileMaker) is the long-running cross-platform database app — used by SMBs, education, healthcare, and creative agencies to build custom database applications without traditional engineering. Tiny Command exposes one action, no triggers: List Items (records from a FileMaker layout). The connection takes the FileMaker Server URL plus database name + layout + auth credentials. FileMaker has been around since 1985 and has a passionate community of "FileMaker developers" — solo consultants who build custom database apps for specific industries (medical practices, schools, design studios, real-estate offices). For workflows that integrate a FileMaker-managed database with modern cloud systems, this connector is the bridge. The Data API needs to be enabled on the FileMaker Server.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect File Maker once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every File Maker field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.
