Get Table by ID biconnector.table.get

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: biconnector

Who can execute the method: A user who has both the "Access to BI Builder" and "Access to Analytics Hub" permissions

The biconnector.table.get method returns information about a table by its identifier.

The method works only in the context of an application and returns only the tables that the application created itself. When called via a webhook, the method returns the ACCESS_DENIED error

Method Parameters

Required parameters are marked with *

Name
type

Description

id*
integer

Table identifier, can be obtained with the biconnector.table.list and biconnector.table.add methods

Returned Data

Name
type

Description

result
object

Root element of the response. It contains the single item key with the table object

time
time

Information about the request execution time

The table object

Name
type

Description

id
integer

Table identifier

type
string

Table type. For tables of a REST source the value is always rest

name
string

Table name

description
string

Table description

externalCode
string

External code of the table

externalName
string

External name of the table

dateCreate
datetime

Creation date in the Y-m-d H:i:s format

dateUpdate
datetime

Update date in the Y-m-d H:i:s format. For a table that has never been updated, the value is null

createdById
integer

Identifier of the user who created the table

updatedById
integer

Identifier of the user who updated the table. For a table that has never been updated, the value is 0

externalId
integer

Identifier of the BI Builder dataset created together with the object by the deprecated biconnector.dataset.add method. For tables created with the biconnector.table.add method, the value is always 0

csvDelimiter, csvEncoding, csvHasHeaders
string, string, boolean

Parameters for parsing a CSV file. For tables of a REST source they are always empty

fields
array

Array of table columns

There is no sourceId field in the response — the source identifier is returned only by the biconnector.table.list method. The composition of columns, on the contrary, is available only here: the biconnector.table.list selection carries no fields array.

Element of the fields array

Name
type

Description

id
integer

Column identifier

datasetId
integer

Identifier of the table the column belongs to. The key is named this way for historical reasons

type
string

Data type of the column

name
string

Column name

externalCode
string

External code of the column

visible
boolean

Column visibility flag

description
string

Column description. It is not filled in via the REST API

Error Handling

HTTP status: 200

{
            "result": {
                "error": {
                    "error": "VALIDATION_ID_NOT_PROVIDED",
                    "error_description": "ID is missing."
                }
            }
        }
        

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
type

Description

error
string

String error code. It consists of digits, Latin letters, and underscores. It may arrive empty — in that case only error_description shows the reason

error_description
string

Error message for the developer. Do not show it to the end user without processing

Possible Error Codes

Code

Description

Value

ACCESS_DENIED

Access denied.

One of the two permissions is missing, or the method was called via a webhook or outside the application context

VALIDATION_ID_NOT_PROVIDED

ID is missing.

Identifier is not provided

VALIDATION_INVALID_ID_FORMAT

ID has to be a positive integer.

Invalid ID format

DATASET_NOT_FOUND

Dataset was not found.

The table does not exist or belongs to another application

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
Error Message

Description

500

INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR
Internal server error

An internal server error has occurred. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support

500

ERROR_UNEXPECTED_ANSWER
Server returned an unexpected response

The server returned an unexpected response. Retry the call, and if the error persists, contact the server administrator or Bitrix24 technical support

503

QUERY_LIMIT_EXCEEDED
Too many requests

The request intensity limit has been exceeded

429

OPERATION_TIME_LIMIT
Method is blocked due to operation time limit

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

401

NO_AUTH_FOUND
Wrong authorization data

The request contains no authorization data: neither an access token nor a webhook code was passed

401

INVALID_REQUEST
Https required

Methods are called over the HTTPS protocol only

401

OVERLOAD_LIMIT
REST API is blocked due to overload

The REST API is blocked due to overload. This is a manual individual block. To have it lifted, contact Bitrix24 technical support

401

ACCESS_DENIED
REST is available only on commercial plans

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 — REST is available only by subscription

401

INVALID_CREDENTIALS
Invalid request credentials

No active webhook with the specified user identifier and secret code was found

404

ERROR_METHOD_NOT_FOUND
Method not 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

401

insufficient_scope
The request requires higher privileges than provided by the webhook token

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 provided by the access token

401

expired_token
The access token provided has expired

The access token has expired

401

user_access_error
The user does not have access to the application

The application is installed, but the Bitrix24 administrator has granted access to it only to specific users

403
