API for Logos

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Wondering if there are any plans to incorporate API into the software. While I'm appreciative of the upgrade to the search function, it's still really just a glorified search engine. Rather than Faithlife try to navigate the reactions to a more immersive AI, perhaps allowing individual users to link their own bots would be feasible? My devotional buddy chatbot could use a better reference source than whatever LLM he's got going on right now.

I agree. Open source is usually going to make more people happy.

Personally, I'd want to develop a web clipper extension; a Notion, Obsidian, Evernote, etc extension; and an IFTTT channel. Would also be amazing if Perplexity could search your Logos library and notes.

That said, Logos has historically not done these type of things.

Boomer here…what's an API?

It's a programming term that stands for "Application Programming Interface". The Logos team would have to intentionally support it, but it's a way that you could integrate external third-party programs with Logos and / or augment functionality within Logos (depending on what kind of API Logos provided).

I don't have any inside knowledge but I bet there are publisher restrictions on any kind of API that would compromise their DRM.
