Integration Documentation
Welcome to our integration documentation. This guide will help you understand how to send your information to our platform using two primary methods: API and FTP. Both methods offer unique advantages and can be chosen based on your specific needs and preferences.
Integration Options
1. API Integration
Overview
An API (Application Programming Interface) allows your systems to communicate directly with our platform. It provides a standardized way to send and receive data in real-time, enabling seamless integration with our services.
How It Works
Endpoints: You interact with our API through endpoints, which are specific URLs designed for particular functions or data exchanges.
HTTP Methods: Common methods include:
GET: Retrieve data from our platform.
POST: Send new data to our platform.
PUT: Update existing data.
DELETE: Remove data from our platform.
Authentication: Secure your API requests using API keys or OAuth tokens to ensure that only authorized users can access our services.
Benefits
Real-Time Data Exchange: Access the most up-to-date information instantly.
Automation: Reduce manual effort by automating data exchange processes.
Flexibility: Easily integrate various functions and features to suit your needs.
