An API Platform Built for Developers, Trusted by the Enterprise

We built the API we'd want to use: powerful, predictable, and supported by tools that accelerate your development cycle from day one.

Comprehensive Documentation

Access interactive, auto-updating documentation with detailed endpoint descriptions, request/response examples, and a "Try it out" feature to make live API calls directly from your browser.

Enterprise-Grade Security

Built on a foundation of security, our API uses the OAuth 2.0 standard for authentication and fine-grained, role-based permissions to ensure data is only accessed by authorized applications and users.

Scalable & Reliable Infrastructure

Hosted on world-class cloud infrastructure and backed by our SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications, our API is designed for high availability and performance, ready to scale with your transaction volume.

Developer-First Tooling

Get started faster with official SDKs for popular languages, a comprehensive Postman collection for easy testing, and a dedicated developer sandbox environment to build and test without impacting production data.

Real-Time Data with Webhooks

Go beyond polling. Configure webhooks to receive real-time notifications for critical business events in ArionERP, such as "new invoice created" or "inventory level low," enabling truly event-driven architectures.

Full Business Logic Access

Our API is more than a simple data layer. It exposes the same powerful business logic that drives the ArionERP application, allowing you to perform complex operations, not just basic CRUD tasks.

Dedicated Developer Support

From community forums to dedicated integration engineers for enterprise partners, we provide the support you need to resolve issues quickly and make your integration project a success.

"The ArionERP API was a game-changer. It's robust, well-documented, and the support was phenomenal. We built a native integration in half the time we projected, which is now a major competitive differentiator for us."

Challenge: Creating a Seamless Customer Data Sync

ConnectFlow, a leading marketing automation platform, needed to provide its enterprise customers with a native, bi-directional integration to their ERP. Manually exporting and importing data was causing errors, delays, and a poor user experience. They needed a reliable way to sync customer, sales, and product data in real-time between their platform and ArionERP.

Key Challenges:

  • Ensuring data consistency and integrity across two complex systems.
  • Handling large volumes of data updates without hitting API rate limits.
  • Building a secure, multi-tenant integration that protected customer data.
  • Minimizing development time to get the integration to market quickly.

Our Solution:

ConnectFlow leveraged the ArionERP API to build a powerful, native integration. They used:

  • Webhooks: To get instant notifications of new customers and sales orders in ArionERP.
  • Bulk Endpoints: For efficient, nightly syncs of their entire product catalog.
  • CRM & Sales API: To create and update leads and opportunities from their platform into ArionERP.
  • OAuth 2.0: To provide a secure, user-friendly connection process for their customers.

"By connecting our CNC machines directly to ArionERP via the API, we've eliminated manual data entry and gained real-time visibility into our shop floor. It's the foundation of our Industry 4.0 initiative."

Challenge: Automating Shop Floor Data Collection

Precision Parts was struggling with inaccurate inventory and production data. Machine operators had to manually record material usage and job completion, leading to delays and errors in their ERP. They needed a way to automatically capture data from their IoT-enabled CNC machines and feed it directly into ArionERP's manufacturing and inventory modules.

Key Challenges:

  • Integrating with proprietary machine protocols on the shop floor.
  • Ensuring real-time updates to inventory as materials were consumed.
  • Automatically updating the status of manufacturing work orders.
  • Providing a reliable data stream in a harsh industrial environment.

Our Solution:

Using a middleware application on the factory floor, Precision Parts connected their machine network to the ArionERP API. The solution utilized:

  • Manufacturing API: To find active work orders and post production updates.
  • Inventory API: To create inventory transactions that automatically depleted raw material stock as it was used.
  • Custom Fields API: To log machine-specific data like cycle times and error codes against work orders for later analysis.
  • Robust Error Handling: The integration was built to queue API calls and retry if the network was temporarily unavailable.

"The ArionERP Search API is incredibly powerful. We're now pulling all our core business data into our data warehouse, allowing us to build Power BI dashboards that give us insights we never had before. It's fast, flexible, and reliable."

Challenge: Unlocking Data for Business Intelligence

UrbanStyle's data was trapped inside their ERP. Their analytics team needed a way to extract sales, customer, and inventory data from ArionERP and load it into their central data warehouse to be used with their BI tool, Power BI. The existing reporting tools were too rigid and didn't allow for the complex, cross-functional analysis they needed to drive growth.

Key Challenges:

  • Extracting large volumes of historical data efficiently.
  • Getting near real-time updates for daily sales dashboards.
  • Combining ERP data with data from other sources like Google Analytics.
  • Ensuring the data extraction process was secure and didn't impact ERP performance.

Our Solution:

The analytics team built an ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipeline using Python and the ArionERP API. Their process involved:

  • Search & Reporting API: To run complex, filtered queries to extract precisely the data they needed for sales, inventory, and customer analysis.
  • Pagination Handling: Their scripts were built to handle paginated results to pull millions of records without overwhelming the API.
  • Scheduled Execution: The ETL job was scheduled to run nightly to pull incremental updates, ensuring fresh data each morning.
  • Dedicated API User: They used a dedicated, read-only API user to enhance security and isolate the analytics workload.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions, answered. Here's what developers and decision-makers often ask about the ArionERP API.

Our API is a modern, standards-based RESTful service. It uses standard HTTP verbs (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), accepts and returns JSON-formatted data, and uses conventional HTTP status codes to indicate success or failure. This makes it easy to work with from any language or platform that can make HTTP requests.

We use the industry-standard OAuth 2.0 protocol for authentication. All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Access is controlled via bearer tokens, and you can create granular permissions for each API key to limit its scope, ensuring applications only have access to the data they absolutely need (Principle of Least Privilege).

API access is included with our Enterprise and Unlimited plans, which come with generous rate limits suitable for most use cases. Specific limits depend on your plan and are clearly communicated in our documentation. We use a leaky bucket algorithm to handle bursts, and API responses include headers indicating your current rate limit status to help you manage your usage effectively.

Absolutely. All customers on eligible plans get access to a dedicated developer sandbox. The sandbox is a complete, isolated copy of the ArionERP environment that you can use to build and test your integrations without any risk of affecting your live production data. It's an essential tool for safe and effective development.

Yes, we provide and maintain official SDKs (Software Development Kits) for popular programming languages such as Python, Node.js, and Java. These libraries handle the boilerplate code for authentication, request signing, and response parsing, allowing your developers to focus on your application's business logic and integrate much faster.

We use a clear versioning scheme (e.g., /api/v1/...) to ensure that updates to the API do not break your existing integrations. We are committed to backward compatibility within a version. When we release a new version with breaking changes, the old version will be supported for an extended period, and we will provide detailed migration guides and announcements well in advance.
