Mobile Daily Snapshot API

Use this page when building or evaluating a lightweight mobile client around Tribu's compact daily household snapshot.
The mobile snapshot is meant to give a client the most useful household context without recreating the full desktop app:
- upcoming events
- open or due tasks
- shopping context
- birthdays
- household summary data
- small daily planning cues
Exact request and response schemas are available from your instance at /docs and /redoc.
Use the snapshot when a mobile client needs a quick “what matters today?” view. Do not use it as a replacement for full module APIs when the client needs detailed editing flows.
The snapshot is household context. Treat it like normal Tribu data:
- use authenticated requests only
- do not log full responses in public support requests
- redact names, private notes, dates, URLs, and household details from screenshots
- do not expose tokens in mobile logs or crash reports
Good mobile clients should:
- show the next few relevant items, not the entire database
- keep editing flows clear and scoped
- handle empty states well
- degrade gracefully when the network is unavailable
- avoid caching sensitive data longer than necessary
- Confirm the authenticated user belongs to the selected family.
- Add real calendar, task, shopping, or birthday data first.
- Check the live API docs for required query parameters.
- Refresh the snapshot after mutating any module data.
- Avoid long-lived client caches unless the UI clearly shows last refresh time.
