The Trader API connection allows third-party developers to integrate your Trader database into your own application. Whether it's a website or another application, the Trader API will allow you to seemlessly exchange data between the platforms.
If you want to use or are already using the Trader program for inventory management and plan to develop your own website, then with the API connection you will be able to create a smooth integration creating order documents or displaying catalog items on your website.
A little overview of the API
At this time when a large part of the processes are carried out on the web, it is important for companies to find a way for data to be sent automatically between different applications. An API makes this possible because its basic task is to send and receive data without a constant human interaction.
While we promote the API as an automation tool, people can also use the API for data analysis. Data is received in real time and all information is always up to date. API data requests can be opened in any browser as a link, in an Excel spreadsheet with PowerQuery, and in other business data processing programs.
Highlights of what can be done with the Trader API
- Create and receive data on documents (both incoming and outgoing).
- Create and receive customer data.
