Command Control

Features
Read full description

Command Control gives you the power to query any JSON API and organize exactly what you need into a personalized dashboard on your iPhone. Stop jumping between terminal windows, web tabs, or multiple app layouts. Gather, extract, and combine data streams from completely different sources into a single, clean Command Control application tailored to your exact workflow. Build dynamic triggers with ease. Command Control lets you add custom parameters, free-text inputs, and predefined dropdowns to execute targeted commands across any web service from one centralized location. Query any system using URL Parameters, Query Parameters, POST/PUT payloads, or GraphQL. The app supports robust, secure authentication protocols including API keys, Basic Auth, client-side certificates, and login redirects. Once your data flows in, you control the presentation: hide messy fields, format raw values into human-readable strings, perform calculations, stitch text fields together, and display nested images in custom layouts. Take automation a step further by chaining commands together. Automatically extract authentication tokens or data lists from one API to dynamically populate a persistent dictionary used by another. With custom pre- and post-execution scripts, a single tap can trigger complex, multi-service workflows seamlessly. Key Features: - Deep Organization: Group your APIs into recursive nested folders and style them with custom names, symbols, and hex colors. - Visual Key Path Selector: No more typing out complex or error-prone JSON strings manually. Browse your API payloads and pick your data mapping visually. - Interactive Data Actions: Turn any rendered data row into an actionable button. Tap a field to execute a secondary command, passing dynamic values from that specific row into the next request. - Full Protocol Support: Handles all standard HTTP verbs, path variables, URL queries, custom headers, JSON bodies, and raw payloads. - Advanced Form Handling: Full compatibility with both multipart/form-data and x-www-form-urlencoded payloads. - Native GraphQL Integration: Write clean GraphQL queries and map variables using hardcoded values or interactive user inputs. - Enterprise-Grade Security: Supports Basic Authentication and custom client-side .p12 certificate loading with password protection. - Instant Local Search: Filter massive, nested JSON responses in real-time with a built-in search interface directly over your rendered results. - Smart Text Processing: Native Markdown support automatically styles rich text, headers, and hyperlinks returned by your APIs. - Granular Automation: Set up periodic background tracking to autorun your commands at precise intervals (seconds, minutes, or hours) while the app is active. - Intelligent Layout Engine: Design gorgeous data lists with fully configurable cell styles (including square images, banners, and multi-row alignments), tabular footers, custom sorting rules, and advanced inclusion/exclusion filters. - Smart Data Filtering: Clean up your views by configuring rules to automatically skip boilerplate layout tiers or isolate key objects. - Persistent Value Dictionaries: Create global variable lookups that can be filled manually or fed automatically via key-path extraction from previous API runs. - Built-in Math Operations: Add, subtract, multiply, and divide raw payload numbers to compute totals or evaluate states directly in your view. - Remote Push Notifications: Receive instant alerts from your external servers or scripts by POSTing payloads straight to our secure endpoint using your private API key. Track execution history in a dedicated, in-app notification log. - Seamless Portability: Easily backup, transfer, or share your custom dashboard layouts using JSON configuration import and export tools.
