Is there anyway to export data via API with field names to show ie Client Name rather than field\_66 ?

Hi Catherine - try this API url:

```
https://api.knackhq.com/v1/objects/object_1/fields
```

It's return JSON listing the fields of object\_1 including key pairs of the field key ('field\_66') and the name ('Client Name').
