Application Programming Interfaces, commonly called by their acronym APIs, enable developers to build connections between technologies. APIs use universal standards to push or pull data from various software applications in either one-way or bi-directional methods to read and write data between systems. Development expertise is required to utilize APIs.
Basic APIs
Jump-start your integration and automation strategy with an accessible starter solution. Our Basic APIs package provides programmers with access to STORIS’ Read API Methods to retrieve data from your STORIS system and automate sharing that data with third-party solutions.
Basic APIs can be used to facilitate a non-transactional website integration by sharing fundamental inventory data.
STORIS APIs
With STORIS APIs, build sophisticated bi-directional integrations and automate data usage with access to both Read and Write API methods. With Read methods, data can be retrieved from STORIS for use in external applications. With Write methods, enhance your STORIS database by creating, replacing, and updating data in STORIS from third-party sources.
STORIS APIs can be used to facilitate a fully transactional and sophisticated eCommerce website integration.

“Your API strategy is a business requirement…Since much of digital transformation involves combining disparate data and functionality into rich user experiences and process automation, APIs are an essential ingredient in modern business strategies.”
IMPORTANT NOTE: When licensing API Solutions, STORIS provides detailed API documentation and training to understand our API methods. The retailer’s in-house development team or a trusted third party is responsible for building the integration between STORIS and the third-party solutions of your choosing.
