API server
Provide data for third-party systems as a REST service
The crossbase API Server (API = Application Programming Interface) offers a flexible possibility to access data in the crossbase database from external systems. These accesses remain independent of changes to the underlying data model. Via the interface, experienced software developers can effortlessly write a program or read the data in the crossbase database.
Openness
With the API server, all data in the database can be queried and used in third-party applications. The API server is further developed by crossbase to ensure releaseability. This ensures that all queries remain functional in the future.
Flexibility
The data objects are configured on the basis of a framework to suit the customer-specific use case. Thus, any services can be implemented and extended quickly and efficiently.
Archive server
This option enables the traceability of published product information for all output channels. For this purpose, contents in the database can be defined customer-specifically and backed up differentially on a daily basis. By means of a graphical interface, the information on a product can be clearly displayed at any time, accurate to the key date.
CAD/BIM component catalog with PIM data
In connection with the component catalog of our partner KiM, CAD or BIM files with PIM data can be provided for designers and architects. The required PIM data is made available via an interface. This allows BIM formats such as IFC consisting of CAD drawings and PIM data to be generated directly from the crossbase database.
Delta Service
Data provision for third-party systems often takes the form of complete updates. In the process, all data is exchanged and reconciled. Through the delta services, the change information for the target system, either related to the last complete update or to the last data request, can be generated and propagated. This significantly reduces the amount of data to be processed by the target system.
REST services
The API server provides a REST interface that can be used by third-party applications. The result is transmitted in JSON format. The REST services are configured on a customer-specific basis according to requirements and can be flexibly extended. The data is transferred via HTTP or HTTPS.
Authentication and authorization
Access to the API can be secured both by means of static tokens and by connecting an identity provider with "OAuth 2.0" support.
