# Interface

The interface describes the structure of output bundles and specifies the parameters seen in the mapping modal. It should contain the full response from the API, including nested parameters.

You can generate an interface using our [Interface Generator](/custom-apps-documentation/component-blocks/interface.md#interface-generator).

## Dynamic interface according to user-defined fields

Retrieving all fields from the endpoint could be difficult, especially when integrating an ERP or other business-related backend that has hundreds of fields.

The solution to this varies across different platforms, but they are similar.

One method is to use a `select` parameter to retrieve only the fields that you need. For example, [Open Data Protocol (OData)](https://www.odata.org/getting-started/basic-tutorial/#select).

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Source" %}

```javascript
GET serviceRoot/Airports?$select=Name,IcaoCode

{
    "@odata.context": "serviceRoot/$metadata#Airports(Name,IcaoCode)",
    "value": [
        {
            "@odata.id": "serviceRoot/Airports('KSFO')",
            "@odata.editLink": "serviceRoot/Airports('KSFO')",
            "Name": "San Francisco International Airport",
            "IcaoCode": "KSFO"
        },
        ......
    ]
}

```

{% hint style="info" %}
With `Name` and `IcaoCode` as the only output, adjust the interface to indicate to users that only these fields are available for mapping.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developers.make.com/custom-apps-documentation/best-practices/output-parameters/interface.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
