# Create APIs on top of your Xano database

Once you have created a Database and filled in data, you should create APIs for your Database in Xano. There are two options to create Endpoints in Xano: 

* Default CRUD operations endpoints 
* Create custom API endpoints

#### 1.1 Default CRUD operations endpoints

1. **Use Default CRUD operations endpoints**. Go to the **API tab** in Xano from the left menu and choose **Default** API Group and Copy **API Group Base URL to your clipboard, and let’s head over to Jet Admin!**

#### **1.2 Create custom API endpoints**

To successfully create custom API endpoints, mark all API endpoints: Specify the **Description** field for each API endpoint.

First, go to **Add API Group** and fill in Name and Description. Next, click **Add API endpoint**.

Fill the **Description** field of the API endpoint you want to use in Jet Admin with the following content:

* *For Get record list API endpoint:* Query all **TABLE** records
* *For Create record API endpoint:* Add **TABLE** record
* *For Delete record API endpoint:* Delete **TABLE** record
* *For Get one record API endpoint:* Get **TABLE** record
* *For Update record API endpoint:* Edit **TABLE** record

where **TABLE** is your Xano table name.

{% hint style="info" %}
Only endpoints with the specified **Descriptions will be imported** to Jet Admin. For example, if API endpoint – Get record list of Deals, in the Description field: **Query all deals records**.
{% endhint %}

### **Step 1.3: File upload API Endpoint (Optional)**

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Xano Files** attachments are only available in paid **Xano** plans
{% endhint %}

It's only possible to upload files to **Xano** file fields using **Xano Files** storage. If you have file fields in your **Xano** database then you need to connect **Xano Files** storage to **Jet Admin**. All **Xano** file fields will use **Xano Files** storage by default.

Jet Admin will automatically integrate with **Xano Files** storage if you have **Xano** an **/upload/attachment** endpoint when you connect to **Jet Admin.**&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
**Jet Admin** will look for **/upload/attachment** endpoint to integrate. \
If you already have it you can skip the following part.
{% endhint %}

If you don't have an **/upload/attachment** endpoint then follow these steps:&#x20;

* Go to your **API Group**
* Click **Add API endpoint**
* Create an endpoint by clicking **Upload Content** -> **Upload an attachment** -> **Save**

Once you finish the steps you will have the following **/upload/attachment** which will automatically integrate when connecting to **Jet Admin.**
