This enables storing state within your DomoApp with optional syncing to Domo DataSets. Three layers provide data storage: - **Datastores**: Analogous to a database. A CustomApp has a single datastore created automatically. - **Collections**: Analogous to a collection in NoSQL or table in relational databases. - **Documents**: Analogous to documents in NoSQL or table rows in relational databases. servers: - url: https://{instance}.domo.com description: Domo Instance variables: instance: default: example description: Your Domo instance name security: [] paths: /domo/datastores/v2/collections/{collectionName}/documents/{documentId}: get: tags: - AppDB API summary: Get Document description: Retrieves a single document from a collection. parameters: - $ref: '#/components/parameters/CollectionName' - $ref: '#/components/parameters/DocumentId' responses: '200': description: Document retrieved successfully content: application/json: schema: $ref: '#/components/schemas/Document' example: id: 402778f6-bc8d-4aa5-a581-e08e3fc98c05 datastoreId: daee775a-3be4-410d-ba20-bb0d94ce51cb collectionId: 2148c830-14c2-478f-bb14-5c3019de46b4 syncRequired: true owner: '540824222' createdBy: '540824222' createdOn: '2026-07-31T23:09:34.542Z' updatedOn: '2026-07-31T23:09:34.542Z' updatedBy: '540824222' content: name: Harry Potter house: Gryffindor wand: wood: holly core: phoenix feather length: 11 courses: - Defense Against the Dark Arts - Potions - Transfiguration enrolledOn: '1991-09-01' lastDetention: '1994-06-08T20:00:00Z' '403': description: >- Forbidden.
