In my project (using SP 2013) I need to get information from a couple of different lists and merge them for display purposes.

Instead of using a couple of ajax requests to the api and merging the data in the js code, can I override the "GetByTitle" function or maybe create a "GetMergedData" that will use the base functionality that the api offers me?

  • In that case you have to write your own custom web service Commented Jan 24, 2016 at 13:21

Sounds like you want to create a custom web service endpoint. I followed this tutorial to extend the REST api in one of my projects.

Note that you must use the /_vti_bin/ path to access the endpoint when calling it from an app/add-in, the usual /_api/ does not allow non-sharepoint endpoints.
