Salesforce Field Service API
Salesforce Field Service is field service management software that helps dispatchers and technicians plan, execute, and document on-site work. An unofficial API lets you programmatically pull work orders, service appointments, technicians, assets, and stock levels—and push new jobs, s
What is Salesforce Field Service?
Salesforce Field Service is a cloud solution for managing field operations. It extends Service Cloud with work order management, appointment scheduling and optimization, dispatcher tools, mobile technician workflows, asset/entitlement tracking, and inventory control.
Core product areas include:
- Work Order Management (e.g., work orders, line items, priorities, SLAs)
- Scheduling & Dispatch (e.g., service appointments, territories, policies, skills-based assignment)
- Mobile Workforce & Debrief (e.g., time/labor, parts used, resolutions, photos, signatures, service reports)
- Assets & Entitlements (e.g., installed products, service contracts, maintenance plans)
- Inventory & Parts (e.g., van stock, warehouses, product items, transfers, consumption)
Common data entities:
- Accounts, Contacts, and Cases
- Work Orders and Work Order Line Items
- Service Appointments (status, technician assignment, time windows)
- Service Resources (technicians), Crews, Skills, Operating Hours
- Service Territories and Scheduling Policies
- Assets (installed products), Entitlements, Maintenance Plans
- Inventory Locations, Product Items, Stock Levels, Movements
- Attachments, Photos, Signatures, Service Reports
The Salesforce Field Service Integration Challenge
Field service teams rely on Salesforce daily, but turning portal-first workflows into API-driven automation presents challenges:
- Scheduling engine nuances: Optimization policies, skills, travel time, and constraints live behind dispatcher console flows
- Complex entitlement models: Profiles, permission sets, record types, and sharing rules govern access across orgs and territories
- Mobile-first artifacts: Offline debriefs, photos, and signatures are optimized for the mobile app, not headless ingestion
- Distributed data: Work orders, appointments, assets, and inventory are spread across objects and views with customizations
- Operational rigor: SLAs, status transitions, service reports, and auditability must be respected programmatically

Authentication
/sessions/refreshRefresh an existing token to keep sessions uninterrupted.
Work Orders
/work-ordersList work orders with filters and summary details.
Work Orders
/work-ordersCreate a new work order with line items and territory assignment.
Service Appointments
/work-orders/{workOrderId}/service-appointmentsCreate and (optionally) auto-assign a service appointment with time windows and skills.
Debrief and Service Report
/service-appointments/{appointmentId}/debriefFinalize a job by recording labor, parts, resolution notes, photos, and customer signature. Generates a service report.
