Best practices

I. Plan your integration

Start choosing the use cases that better fit your needs and then select a technical solution that covers your requirements. You can use a mix of different solutions. 

For each use case listed on Use Cases and recommended methods, there may be more than one technical solution available: each one is slightly different from the others in terms of features, scalability, or something else.

A broad comparison matrix for available technical solutions is available here.
 

II. Check requirements

In some cases, the chosen solution may require access to features or a level of access that your account may not have at the moment. For example, your account may be restricted due to a free trial status, or you may need the setup of a batch process (e.g. FTP based integrations require a specific setup by our support department). Please contact us if you get stuck or need a special configuration.

III. Use sample code

Some API pages provide code snippets or examples of input/output parameters. It is recommended that you check them out to get familiar with available API methods. For example:

IV. Build your application
