1. JavaScript programs are executed in browsers. 2. You can add various features on web pages. • JavaScript is widely used to implement dynamic web pages. WEB Page HTML Structure CSS JavaScript Design Action
understand what's important at a glance. It is difficult to make a list of "Urgent" and "By Status" and check each time. Native feature • It is possible to create a list that extracts only the necessary information. ➤ You cannot modify the color or the font depending on the conditions.
Text color, size and background color can be modified depending on a value from a different field in the record. https://kintone.dev/en/plugins/advanced-samples/conditional-format-plug-in/ Urgent records are shown in red. Add background color by end date.
fields Native feature • The input values in each field can be checked for predefined conditions. ➤ It is not possible to perform more detailed value checks or checks between items. If there are no more than 3 days between the start and the end dates, I want an error message to be displayed. But I cannot do that with the native features. Many mistakes made by the input • Input Required • No duplication • Number of characters (minimum, maximum) • Input Required • No duplication Date Text
fields Customize • It is possible to check in complicated conditions or between multiple fields. And the error message can be displayed at the relevant field. Error message can be displayed in the relevant field.
Native feature • You show or hide a field depending on the value in other fields. If there are many items, the record will become vertically long and difficult to enter.
Customize • You can control whether fields are enabled, disabled, show or hide according to user’s desired condition. If you select “Yes” and then select “Other”... Show the fields.
values automatically Native feature • It is possible to disable some fields to the users with permissions. ➤ It is not possible to disable some fields base on a value of another field or fill them with values automatically. I want to distinguish between automatic input and non-input according to items at the stage of record editing. With a tablet, it is troublesome to enter characters one by one.
values automatically Customize • It is possible to disable some fields or fill them with values automatically. https://kintone.dev/en/docs/kintone/js-api/events/record-edit-event/#onload-event-desktop In the case of “Media”... Disabled Name field.
feature • “Calendar view” can be used, but in the case that there are a lot of tasks, it is not easy to check tasks at a glance. I do not understand the overall schedule. Only one field is displayed in the calendar view.
• In Kintone, there are places that can be freely customized by JavaScript. At this time, implement in the "blank part of the lower part of the menu" on the list view.

that sends a message described in XML or JSON format when you access a specific URL with HTTP/HTTPS by specifying parameters. Kintone REST API You can pass Kintone data to an external platform or register the received data in Kintone.
Kintone) Native feature • A unique record number is assigned each time, but that may not be enough... I want each record number to have a prefix that is assigned every year. I want to assign automatic numbering only to those that have been approved by process management.
Kintone) Customize • Fetch the data when a save button is pressed and generate a number automatically based on the fetched information. 1. Count the number of records that match the conditions when save is pressed. 2. Reflect on record. https://kintone.dev/en/tutorials/autofill-data/set-automatic-numbering/
another web service Native feature • You can retrieve data from the other Kintone apps, but you cannot fetch it from another web service. CSV reading Look it up Zip code database

occurs in the system, the system will automatically send data by HTTP/HTTPS to the URL specified in advance. • Kintone Webhook Notification of registration/update information of Kintone application can be sent to the outside.
time and reduce the number of REST API requests • You need to execute REST APIs regularly to check if there are any updates. Note that you cannot detect the updates in real-time. • Kintone will automatically notify you of updates with Webhook. That way, you can get the difference between the data in real-time. Webhook (Outgoing) Without Webhook With Webhook REST API Kintone Kintone
by REST API • Since the server of Kintone sends the Webhook requests, we can prevent errors like “Some of the users could not execute REST APIs due to a browser crash or JavaScript error.” REST API Webhook REST API JavaScript API Kintone Kintone
Customization without Webhook • You need to develop various customizations in many places, and the number of requests will be higher than the one with Webhook. REST API OS settings for regularly running programs Develop a program to fetch records and check whether there are new records. Develop a program to notify Slack of the new records Preparation of terminal Kintone
Customization with Webhook • The above can be achieved only by setting on the screen, and the number of requests can be minimized. Webhook Setting on the screen Setting on the screen Kintone https://get.kintone.help/k/en/user/app_settings/set_webhook/webhook.html

Kintone • API Request limit: 10,000 requests / 1 app / 1 day • If the limit is exceeded, a warning email will be sent to the administrator. • Access is not limited immediately. • Number of simultaneous API access limit: 100 / 1 subdomain • The API requests more than the limit will be errors. • If the number of fields in the app (up to 500) increases, performance may be affected. • For IE, it has been confirmed that the performance is affected if the number of fields exceeds 190. • Note that the above values differ depending on the application settings such as access permissions and view settings.
a time trigger, so it cannot be executed at periodic intervals. • Execute at some event on Kintone. • Prepare environment to execute API and use task scheduler or cron. Idea 1 Idea 2 ü Periodic processing cannot be done by Kintone only, so it is necessary to have an external system that can do the things above.
apps/records? It is possible if you use Kintone REST API. It is important to define the requirements where and what data is to be displayed under what conditions (if too many records are aggregated, the load on Kintone increases and the response becomes slow).
is possible, but Kintone is not a software dedicated to budget performance management, so it may be necessary to perform quite complicated customization depending on the requirements, and the amount of money may not match. In that case, it may be better to propose Kintone in cooperation with other dedicated software.
has functions to import or export data such as the REST API or the CSV download. It depends on whether the other service to integrate with Kintone has a way to import and export data. There are several patterns to do this such as: ・Develop programs using the both APIs if the other service has the API ・If there are no APIs available on the service, find another way to export data from it and import the data to Kintone. ・Using an integration solution such as Zapier If there are no ways available to export data from the service, it is impossible to integrate it with Kintone.
departments/branches • Information sharing between other departments or with the head office and branches. 2. Use with business partners • Information sharing with external business partners and information sharing with group companies. 3. Centralized management of disparately managed information • Centralized management of disparately managed information such as multiple systems and Excel. Work requests and applications between departments Summarizing sales information of group companies and exchanging system repair requests for group companies System modification that cannot keep up with system compliance and manages with Excel
businesses/businesses that are expanding • Systematization of operations that are not standardized and operations that are changed business processes and rules frequently. 5. Want to start right now! • Due to end of support, deterioration, legal compliance, speed of response is required.
core systems such as accounting system and attendance system • Replacing the core system like accounting and attendance management itself is difficult because Kintone is not the dedicated service. • We recommend using it in combination with the core system. 2. Services for consumers • If the Kintone edit/list page needs to be significantly modified, a large amount of cost may be required. • Please use it as a service that supports internal communication, not as a service for consumers. 3. Systematization of business that causes complicated transaction processing
