Problem Regarding Rest API Integration

[yashz]

Hello Community,

I am currently doing an assignement on REST APIs and my have a assignment problem is that,

Here is what my API should do

Whenever I create a record say in a table then a record should automatically get created into an another table and vice versa

also if I update a particular record in a table then the corresponding record which was created should also get updated.

In both cases, you're referring to a related record being updated when your API updates a record.

If that is correct, you need to either use Business Rules or Flow (via Flow Designer) to make updates (probably conditionally) to the related records.

Actually I need to do it using an Rest API not a business rule or a Flow Designer

Your assignment involves implementing synchronization between two tables such that changes in one table are mirrored in the other. This requires:

Creating corresponding records when a record is added to one table.
Updating corresponding records when a record in one table is updated.

Implementation Steps
1. Set Up Two Tables
Assume you have two tables:

Table A
Table B
Both tables should have similar structures, with a unique identifier to link corresponding records.

2. Create an API Endpoint
Create a REST API with the following operations:

Create Record: Add a record to one table and automatically create a corresponding record in the other table.
Update Record: Update a record in one table and automatically update the corresponding record in the other table.
