About the Menus API

The Menus API provides all the functionality required to create and manage restaurant menus.

The Menus API contains the following APIs:

• Menus: This API allows you to create and manage restaurant menus. Menus don't contain menu items (dishes) directly. Rather, they're divided into sections, such as "Appetizers," "Mains," or "Desserts.", each of which contain a list of menu items.
• Sections: This API allows you to create and manage menu sections. Sections represent parts of a menu such as "Appetizers," "Mains," or "Desserts." Each section contains a list of corresponding menu items (dishes).
• Items: This API allows you to create and manage individual menu items (dishes). Items can be labeled and customized with item variants and item modifier groups.
• Item Labels: This API allows you to create and manage labels with icons for important item properties or ingredients like "Spicy," "Vegan," or "Gluten-Free."
• Item Modifiers: This API allows you to create and manage menu item modifiers.
• Item Modifier Groups: This API allows you to create and manage item modifier groups.
• Item Variants: This API allows you to create and manage item variants.
