Submittable Submissions API

  title: Submittable API
  description: >-
    The Submittable API (v4) provides read-and-write, programmatic access to
    a Submittable account's data. Submittable is a submission management,
    grants, and applications platform. This API exposes submissions and their
    form-field entries, projects and forms, submitters (users), labels, review
    team members and assignments, funds and payment distributions, and message
    attachments. Authentication uses HTTP Basic Authentication, where an account
    access token (found under More > Integrations > API Access) is sent as the
    password portion of the Basic Auth header. The API is throttled at roughly
    10 transactions per second and 10,000 transactions per hour. In v4,
    submission and label identifiers are GUIDs and list endpoints page with
    continuation tokens rather than page numbers.

    This description is modeled from Submittable's public API reference and help
    documentation. Endpoint paths, parameters, and schemas are honestly modeled
    to reflect the documented resource groups; some request/response shapes are
    generalized where the underlying account-gated reference does not publish a
    machine-readable specification. Endpoints are marked endpointsModeled where
    exact shapes were not confirmable without an authenticated account.
