API vs. Hooks vs. Plugins vs. External Modules
API
- Web service that users can utilize to import or export data, metadata, etc.
- Users can build API scripts in any programming language
- Examples:
- Exporting data out of REDCap and into another system or local device
- Importing data from another system to a REDCap project
Plugins
- Are PHP scripts external to REDCap
- Can appear as if part of REDCap (but are not)
- Cannot affect behavior or look of existing REDCap pages
- Examples:
- Extra page in a REDCap project
- Simple dashboards and reports
- Entire web applications that sit on top of REDCap
Hooks
- Are PHP scripts executed internally by REDCap in specific places in the application
- Can affect behavior or look of REDCap pages
- Examples:
- Customize a survey page, data entry form, etc.
- Perform additional back-end operations on data entry forms, survey pages, or during a “save record” event
