No matter your skill level, join us for some fun.
The Claris FileMaker Western Washington group and the Claris Connect Meetup joined forces in 2022 to form Claris Beyond. The Western Washington group brought a long history of respect for the FileMaker platform and a deep knowledge of its foundations and capabilities. The Claris Connect group brought an interest in exploring connectors and ways to bridge the gap between FileMaker and other applications. Together, the Claris Beyond user group continues that shared eagerness to harness the strength of FileMaker while seamlessly connecting it with technology at large - whether that be through Claris Connect, API’s, Tableau, JavaScript, and more.
Absolutely! The Claris Beyond group’s focus is on topics related to external integrations such as Claris Connect, REST API integration, or integration via a third-party tool or application.
