# REST API, Agentic CSV import, ⌘K

Keith Peiris & Henri Liriani Mar 20, 2026

This week we released our REST API, enabling you to take control of your data in Lightfield, starting with a core set of objects. We’ll be releasing additional functionality every week. On top of that, we’ve also created a set of tools to make CSV imports much easier through chat.

## REST API Beta

We're building a shared common core for agents, humans, and external systems to access and work with your CRM data.

Today we shipped read / write access to Accounts, Opportunities, and Contacts, as well read access to the Member object. API access is available via HTTP or a Python SDK.

Next on our roadmap - support for Notes, Meetings, and Tasks; a TypeScript SDK and CLI; and an MCP server to enable agents to interact with Lightfield data through tools.

Everything you need to get started is at [docs.lightfield.app](https://docs.lightfield.app/).

## CSV import via agent

We’ve made significant upgrades to our chat infrastructure to allow the agent to work on long-running tasks, log its progress, and resume when able. The agent will also now indicate when tasks are in progress and notify you when your input is needed or a long task has been completed.

## ⌘K

You can now use ⌘K to access search and navigate across records without a mouse click.

## Smaller changes

- Data imports are now retry-safe — if an import is interrupted, re-running it won't create duplicates.
- List operations are now faster with optimistic UI updates, and list entries in the detail panel show counts and a quick "Remove from list" action.
- Partial assistant responses are now preserved when a chat is interrupted or fails, so you never lose context mid-conversation.
- Markdown now pastes correctly to and from notes.
