Do I need to install FileMaker’s API for PHP?
A. No, SmartPill is completely self-contained and is used for a different purpose. FileMaker’s API for PHP is used to provide access via the web publishing engine while SmartPill runs on the “inside” of FileMaker as a plug-in. As mentioed below, SmartPill can be used with the web publishing engine but it does so as a plug-in, not an API.
