    "description": "The Vim REST API allows you to access various resources and services provided by Vim.\nThe API is based on the OAuth 2.0 protocol and uses the client credentials grant type for authentication.\nBefore calling any authenticated resource request, you must obtain an access token by calling the [Obtain access token](#post-token-obtain-an-access-token) endpoint.\n\n**Note**: The Vim API is only available for USA server-based instances. This means your application server must be hosted within the United States to access Vim's EHR connectivity features. If you are a developer accessing from outside of the US, you need to use a VPN to connect, but your app server must still be in the US for production use.\n\nThese docs are interactive, so you can change the request parameters and see the response in real-time. Try it out!"

        "description": "Appointments public api enables Canvas's app developers to get the clinic NPI's future appointments as a back end API request.\nThe endpoint returns scheduled appointments for the upcoming 10 days for Authorized Users within the customer organization which have your application installed.\nFor authorization, you must use the token obtained from the [Obtain access token](#post-oauth-token) endpoint.<p><b>Rate limit:</b> You can send up to 50 requests per minute.<p><b>Pagination:</b> The API supports offset-based pagination to handle large datasets efficiently. The following parameters control pagination:</p><ul><li><b>offset</b> (optional): The starting point of the data to retrieve. Default is 0.</li><li><b>limit</b> (optional): The number of records to retrieve. Default is 50, with a maximum value of 50.</li></ul><p>This allows you to retrieve subsets of data in sequential requests. For example:</p><ul><li><code>offset=0&limit=50</code> retrieves the first 50 records.</li><li><code>offset=50&limit=50</code> retrieves the next 50 records.</li></ul></p><p>Vim allows developers to test the API without accessing live data. By using <code>vimOrganizationId = 123456789</code> in the API parameter, developers receive a predefined JSON response that simulates real appointment data but with de-identified data. Please note that you have to be authorized to use the service.</p><h3>How This API Works</h3><p>This API is <b>not</b> a real-time backend-to-backend EHR integration. It is a <b>daily snapshot</b> system — Vim syncs appointment data from the EHR once per day, and this endpoint serves that latest snapshot.</p><p><b>Daily sync flow:</b></p><ol><li>Once per day, Vim syncs appointments from the EHR for each provider with an NPI, covering the next 10 days.</li><li>The data is stored in Vim's backend.</li><li>This endpoint returns that stored snapshot — it does not query the EHR in real time.</li></ol><p><b>Supported EHRs:</b> ECW, Athena, and Sandbox EHR (for testing).</p><p><b>Key constraints:</b></p><ul><li><b>Not real-time:</b> Data is synced once daily. Expect up to a 24-hour lag for new appointments.</li><li><b>NPI required:</b> Only physicians with an NPI set in the EHR are included in the sync.</li><li><b>App must be initialized:</b> The app authentication flow must be completed for that user before any data is synced for them.</li><li><b>Physician must be logged in:</b> Vim Connect must be active during the daily sync window for that provider's data to be extracted.</li><li><b>Appointment timing matters:</b> Appointments added to the EHR after the daily sync has run won't appear until the following day.</li><li><b>Lookahead window:</b> Only the next 10 days of appointments are available.</li></ul>",
