# API ## Overview Labii’s API Type Integration enables seamless connectivity with external APIs to automatically update other columns in Labii based on retrieved data. By configuring an API endpoint, request parameters, and response mapping, users can trigger API calls to fetch relevant information and populate multiple fields within a record. This integration is particularly useful for synchronizing external databases, enriching records with third-party data, or automating workflows such as pulling experiment details, updating statuses, or retrieving analytics. It enhances efficiency by reducing manual data entry and ensuring real-time accuracy across connected systems. ## Widgets * [API](/widgets/column-widgets/integration/api/api.md) - The Labii API widget is a powerful tool that allows users to seamlessly connect to various APIs and execute API calls with ease. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
