FileMaker Automation
Clean and verify data, react to FileMaker Server events, build live OData queries, and give FileMaker scripts stable API routes. Each automation is designed around how FileMaker systems actually operate.
01 · Governed data correction
Find inconsistent FileMaker data, preview every proposed correction, approve the exact plan, and verify what was written.
Data cleanup should not be a blind batch script. Data Health turns cleanup into a reviewable job with evidence before and after the write.
Get Data HealthCombine compatible cleanup actions into one bounded job.
Preview every affected record before anything changes.
Require team approval for protected replacement workflows.
Encrypt original values, verify writes, and support guarded rollback.
Result
A correction job with a durable proposal, approval state, execution evidence, and verified result.
02 · Event-driven automation
Run automations when FileMaker Server reports a backup, schedule, database, user, capacity, log, certificate, or security event.
Stop polling for conditions that FileMaker Server already knows about. Pub/Sub turns selected server events into filtered, repeatable automation.
Get FileMaker Pub/SubListen for FileMaker Server operational and security events.
Filter events to the database, environment, or signal that matters.
Run one or more connector actions from the matching event.
Review delivery history and failed automation attempts.
Result
Server activity becomes a useful response: notify, log, route, validate, escalate, or hand work to another system.
03 · Live FileMaker queries
Build OData record finds from discovered FileMaker tables and fields without hand-writing every query parameter.
The guided builder turns a saved FileMaker authorization into a validated OData request while keeping the generated request visible and inspectable.
Get guided FileMaker ODataDiscover OData tables, fields, and field types from FileMaker metadata.
Build filters, selected fields, sorting, limits, and pagination controls.
Preview the generated OData request before the automation runs.
Use OData Connection Doctor and advanced raw filters when needed.
Result
A readable, reusable FileMaker OData action with explicit query scope and connection diagnostics.
04 · Stable FileMaker endpoints
Give FileMaker scripts stable HTTPS endpoints that run ordered actions and return a structured JSON result.
FMRouter keeps endpoint logic outside individual FileMaker scripts while preserving a simple Insert from URL call from the file.
Get FMRouterCreate inbound and outbound routes for a chosen FileMaker context.
Run ordered actions with validation before saving or testing.
Generate the FileMaker Insert from URL setup and request payload.
Return run, step, status, and result evidence to the calling script.
Result
One stable route replaces duplicated endpoint logic and gives FileMaker a consistent success or failure envelope.
Questions
No. They extend FileMaker scripts with governed data cleanup, FileMaker Server events, OData queries, stable route endpoints, and connections to other systems.
Yes. Data Health previews affected records, records the exact proposed corrections, supports approval, verifies every write, and can roll back protected replacement jobs.
Pub/Sub starts work from FileMaker Server events. FMRouter gives FileMaker scripts stable HTTPS endpoints that run ordered actions and return a structured JSON result.
No. Guided FileMaker OData discovers tables and fields and builds filters, sorting, selected fields, and request previews. Advanced raw filters remain available when you need them.
