SmartSimple Software builds SmartSimple Cloud, a configurable cloud platform for grants management, research and government funding administration, corporate social responsibility (CSR), scholarships, and case management. The platform exposes three documented programmatic interfaces on each client instance - SmartConnect (a JSON-based RESTful API), an OData reporting API, and a legacy SOAP Web Services API - covering records (UTA Level 1/2/3), users, organizations, transactions, custom fields, and files. Access is instance-scoped - every customer runs on their own alias.smartsimple.com tenant and provisions an API user account or access token, so the documented endpoints are modeled against a customer instance rather than a single public gateway.

description: Get, list, and update (create) records stored in SmartSimple's Universal Tracking Application (UTA) at Level
1, Level 2, and Level 3 - the grant applications, reviews, and sub-records at the heart of the platform. Standard fields
are addressed with sf_ prefixes and custom fields with cf_ (by name or ID). Endpoints are /API/1/levelone/, /API/1/leveltwo/,
and /API/1/levelthree/ on a customer instance. Endpoints are modeled against the documented per-instance API - no single
public base URL exists.
