Estimate

An estimate record exposes an estimate to REST web services. This record is not a subrecord. This record has one subrecord: record ID item.

The REST API Browser includes information about the field names and field types of the estimate record. It also includes information about the HTTP methods, request parameters, and operations available to this record. For details, see the REST API Browser’s estimate reference page.

For information about using the REST API Browser, see The REST API Browser.
