Every REST API integration is built from a small set of standard HTTP methods. Here's what each one does when your systems talk to each other.
Fetch existing records — like order status, inventory levels, or shipment tracking — without changing anything.
Submit new data — like a new purchase order or a newly onboarded trading partner.
Overwrite an existing record in full, such as replacing an entire shipment record.
Change just one field on a record, like updating price or quantity without touching the rest.
Cancel an order or deactivate an integration endpoint that's no longer needed.
What is REST API Integration?
REST API Integration connects two or more software systems over HTTP using stateless, resource-based endpoints that exchange data in JSON or XML. It relies on standard methods — GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE — along with token-based authentication such as OAuth 2.0 or API keys to synchronize orders, inventory, pricing, and shipment data in real time. Compliance hinges on correct endpoint versioning, payload schema mapping, and error handling to ensure automated, touchless data exchange across ERP, e-commerce, and trading-partner systems.
Automated real-time data synchronization
-
Token-based authentication (OAuth 2.0 / API keys) secures every request between systems.
-
Structured JSON schema mapping eliminates field mismatches between ERP and downstream apps.
-
Reliable HTTPS endpoints with retry logic and rate-limit handling ensure time-sensitive data reaches its destination.
