API and Webhooks integration feature

Tyler MacDonald Updated by Tyler MacDonald

APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces, serve as a bridge between different software systems, allowing them to communicate and exchange data seamlessly. They enable developers to integrate the functionalities of one application with another, facilitating tasks like data synchronization, customization, and automation.

Webhooks provide an automated method for systems to send or receive data in real-time. Unlike APIs, which typically involve one system actively requesting information from another, Webhooks allow systems to notify each other automatically when specific events occur. To illustrate, consider APIs as placing an order with your vendor to check stock availability, while Webhooks are akin to instructing the vendor to alert you whenever a particular item becomes available, saving time and streamlining communication for both parties involved.

shopVOX API and Webhooks feature

Our platform offers two distinct features for integrating information between shopVOX and external systems: the shopVOX API and Webhooks.

  1. Incoming Data Integration: This feature allows for seamless transfer of data from external systems into shopVOX. This functionality is provided at no additional cost.
  2. Outgoing Data Integration: With this feature, data from shopVOX can be sent to other systems of your choice. However, this service is available for a monthly fee of $250 per shop, with a maximum limit of 300 calls every 5 minutes. Additionally, to ensure optimal performance and prevent system overload, the outgoing data requests may be throttled based on traffic.
