Directus Integration in Plymouth
Connecting Directus to Plymouth applications, where the API is generated from your database schema. Every table becomes queryable through REST and GraphQL automatically, which is convenient and means the permission configuration is doing more work than usual — because what is exposed follows from the schema rather than from a deliberate API design.
Why this comes up
The problem
Every table in the database is now reachable through an API, and the permissions were configured for the editorial interface.
What you get
What we deliver
- Permissions reviewed specifically for API access, not only for the admin interface
- Field-level rules applied where a table holds columns that should not be public
- Tables that should not be exposed at all confirmed as inaccessible
- Tokens and roles issued per consuming application with minimal scope
- Queries written to request specific fields rather than whole records
- Caching applied, since the API sits directly in front of an operational database

Directus Integration in Plymouth — common questions
- Why does automatic API generation need care?
- Because the API surface follows your schema rather than a design. A table added for an internal process is exposed by the same mechanism as a content table, so what is reachable needs checking deliberately rather than assumed to match intent.
- Are admin permissions the same as API permissions?
- They come from the same system and are applied per role, so a role used for API access carries whatever it was granted. Reviewing what an API token can reach — rather than what an editor sees — is a separate exercise worth performing.
- Should queries request specific fields?
- Yes, for both performance and exposure. Requesting whole records returns every column the role can see, which is more data over the wire and more chance of something internal reaching a client that had no need for it.
- Does the database need protecting?
- It is now serving public requests, so yes. Caching in front of the API and sensible query limits keep an operational database from being loaded by traffic patterns it was never sized for — particularly where the same tables serve internal systems.
- Do you work with businesses across Devon?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South West, including Plymouth and the surrounding Devon area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Plymouth businesses do you usually work with?
- Marine and defence supply chain systems where security accreditation is a precondition rather than a differentiator. Beyond that we work across Marine & Defence, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Higher Education and Tourism.
- Do you cover the areas around Plymouth?
- Yes — we work throughout South West, including Exeter, Truro, Bristol. Plymouth is an urban area of roughly 260,000+, and we take on work across the wider Devon region rather than the city boundary alone.
