Steps
Recognize Rock RMS is self-hosted, open-source ChMS software — the API base URL is the specific church's own Rock instance (https://yourdomain/api), not a shared vendor endpoint.
Authenticate with a REST API key generated in that Rock instance's admin (Security > REST Keys), sent via the Authorization-Token header, or use OAuth if the instance has it configured.
Browse that instance's live Swagger/OpenAPI docs (Power Tools > API Docs) since exact fields/resources vary by installed Rock version.
Query people with GET /api/People, using OData-style $filter/$select/$orderby query parameters supported by Rock's REST layer.
Trigger a workflow via the workflow-launch endpoint (e.g. POST to the LaunchWorkflow action for a given WorkflowType id), supplying any required workflow attributes.
Known gotchas
There is no single global Rock RMS API host — every church runs its own instance with its own URL, data, and custom workflow types.
Confirm exact resource/action paths against that instance's own live Swagger docs before building, since the REST surface evolves with the product's own versioning.
A working REST key only grants what that key's associated Rock user/role can see — it does not guarantee full People/Workflow visibility.
