Seamlessly Blending Your Claris FileMaker Solution With Existing Enterprise Services
The Claris FileMaker platform is built to work with the devices, applications, and data your organization already uses on a day-to-day basis.
Data application program interface (API) integration offers a new but extremely powerful feature supported by the Claris FileMaker platform. Fundamentally, an API consists of a standardized set of routines, protocols, and tools that dictates how software components interact. With Data API integration built into the Claris FileMaker platform, solutions and data can be made accessible to just about any external system using modern communication protocols and formats.
Data API integration allows all of the applications, data, and devices on your network to work together as one. An API enables applications to make requests for data from the Claris FileMaker platform. With API integration, the different databases and apps your organization uses on a day-to-day basis can be seamlessly integrated with your Claris FileMaker solution. That way, every aspect of your operation can always be working efficiently and in unison.
An API is a software intermediary that enables different applications, data, and devices to communicate as one. A powerful API solution allows computers to manage repetitive workloads in a consistent and reliable way, freeing up your team for more critical tasks.
One of the most significant benefits of Data API integration on the Claris FileMaker platform is that it allows our front-end software developers to integrate the Claris FileMaker server with Javascript Frameworks like the Angular framework from Google and the React library from Facebook. The flexibility offered by the robust REST API functionality that the Claris FileMaker platform supports ensures that your Claris FileMaker solution is prepared to adapt as your organization changes and grows.
An API framework also adds an additional level of security to your network. Your devices are never fully exposed to servers, and servers are never fully exposed to connected devices. Communication takes place via small packets of data, so the devices on your network only communicate when necessary. By minimizing communication only to essential information and transactions, the Claris FileMaker platform bolsters security while optimizing system performance.
The Claris FileMaker platform supports Data API integration using popular modern communication protocols and formats such as:
