Get Table Fields biconnector.table.fields
Choose a tool for developing with an AI agent:
- use Alaio Vibecode to build an app for Bitrix24 from a task description without knowing any programming language. The agent writes the code and deploys the app to a server, with no manual hosting setup
- use the MCP server to develop a REST API integration in your own project. The agent refers to the official REST documentation
Scope:
biconnectorWho can execute the method: A user who has both the "Access to BI Builder" and "Access to Analytics Hub" permissions
The biconnector.table.fields method returns the description of the table fields.
The purpose of each field is described in the table fields table.
The method returns a static schema of the table fields — it is the same in any Bitrix24 and does not depend on the tables that were created. Unlike the other methods of the family, this method is available to a webhook, but it still checks both permissions and returns the ACCESS_DENIED error without them
Method Parameters
No parameters.

Returned Data
|
Name |
Description |
|
result |
Root element of the response. It contains the single |
|
result.fields |
Array of table field descriptors, one element per field (detailed description) |
|
time |
Information about the request execution time |
Element of the fields array
|
Name |
Description |
|
title |
Name of the table field. The purpose of the fields is described in the table fields table |
|
type |
Field type. The method returns the |
|
isRequired |
Indicates that the field is required in the object schema. On creation, you only have to pass the fields whose |
|
isReadOnly |
The field is read-only and cannot be passed to |
|
isImmutable |
The value is set once when the table is created and does not change afterwards |
|
isMultiple |
Multiple field. If it is |
The schema describes the fields of the table itself, not the data columns. It does not fully match the fields table: the CSV parsing parameters — csvDelimiter, csvEncoding, and csvHasHeaders — are absent from the schema, although they do arrive in the get and list responses. It is exactly against this schema that select, filter, and order of the biconnector.table.list method are checked. The composition of columns is returned by the biconnector.table.get method and changed by biconnector.table.fields.update.
Error Handling
HTTP status: 200
{
"result": {
"error": {
"error": "ACCESS_DENIED",
"error_description": "Access denied."
}
}
}
The method returns an error inside the result field and with HTTP status 200. Check result.error: the SDK wrappers parse only the top level of the response and treat such an error as a success
|
Name |
Description |
|
error |
String error code. It consists of digits, Latin letters, and underscores. It may arrive empty — in that case only |
|
error_description |
Error message for the developer. Do not show it to the end user without processing |
Possible Error Codes
|
Code |
Description |
Value |
|
|
Access denied. |
One of the two permissions is missing |
Statuses and System Error Codes
HTTP Status: 4xx, 5xx
The errors described below are returned by the REST API itself, not by the logic of a specific method. They can arrive in response to any method.
|
Status |
Code |
Description |
|
|
|
An internal server error has occurred. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support |
|
|
|
The server returned an unexpected response. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support |
|
|
|
The request intensity limit has been exceeded |
|
|
|
The method is blocked because the request resource intensity limit has been exceeded. The block is lifted automatically once the accumulated execution time of the method no longer exceeds the limit |
|
|
|
The request contains no authorization data: neither an access token nor a webhook code was passed |
|
|
|
Methods are called over the HTTPS protocol only |
|
|
|
The REST API is blocked due to overload. This is a manual individual block. To have it lifted, contact Bitrix24 technical support |
|
|
|
REST API access is not active for this account. In Bitrix24 Cloud, check the current plan or trial status: Vibe+ plans include REST API access, while Essentials plans do not. A webhook receives a different error message — |
|
|
|
No active webhook with the specified user identifier and secret code was found |
|
|
|
No method with this name was found. The name is misspelled, the method does not exist in the REST API, or it is unavailable without the required scope |
|
|
|
The request requires broader permissions than the token has: for a webhook these are the permissions granted to it, for an application it is the scope. For an application, the error message ends with |
|
|
|
The access token has expired |
|
|
|
The application is installed, but the Bitrix24 administrator has granted access to it only to specific users |
