1 -The Lost & Found module provides a database to keep track of all lost or found items during a convention. The data can be accessed by the [[API V1.0>>url:https://www.furcom.org/wiki/index.php/API_V1.0]] to display the data on any external website (e.g. the convention's website) or include the data in an APP or Telegram bot.

When adding items to the Lost & Found Database, some standards should be considered:
20 +
21 +* The **Lost & Found Item Title** is public, might appear on the convention's webpage or in their APP and should be short an concise. Most of the time a single word (e.g. "Bandana", "Backpack", "Vape", "Key", "Keychain" or "Badge") should be enough in this field. Refrain from descriptive verbs here. Personally Identifiable Information (PII) shall never be used in this field.
22 +* In the select box right below the Lost & Found Item Title, the current status of the Lost & Found Item (i.e. "Found / Handed in" or "Reported Lost") can be selected.
23 +* The **Lost & Found Item Description** should be used to give the basic parameters of the respective Lost & Found item. This should be a short description of the item, not repeating the Lost & Found Item Title, the item's colour, the location where it was found or lost or similar (e.g. black / rainbow, "GEEKVAPE", found at Open Stage). Unnecessary filling words should be avoided here to make it more easy to search for items and to display the information on the convention's webpage or in their APP. Personally Identifiable Information (PII) shall never be used in this field.
24 +* The **Timestamp** will be autofilled with the current date and time if empty, so it does not necessarily have to be filled for found items, but the rough time of the finding or loss can be entered here.
