Advanced APIs: The Backbone of Smart Integration

‍

In a world of heterogeneous and dynamic systems, APIs are the key tool that a modern CTO must understand and implement in a company's strategy.

In Systems Line, API expertise is a critical tier in ERP, banking, tourism, and optics platforms, with a focus on performance, security, and compliance capabilities.

Rapid development capability of Web APIs that are connected to the system core, gives administrators the ability to leverage the core systems capabilities of a Systems Line using complementary systems and harmonized third-party systems.

‍

Wide support for standard formats

‍

Line Systems has been developing HTTP-based APIs for about three decades, and supports standards — both the most advanced, and the oldest such as SOAP.

Today, RESTful JSON-based APIs enable fast and flexible connections, both on the client side to third-party systems, and as a server when third-party systems turn to a system line to receive data or run business processes.

Systems Line is based on open source Java tools for maintaining standards that ensure maximum flexibility and connectivity, for different systems.

‍

Advanced security and permission control

‍

Integration includes flexible permission control—the Web Services mechanism relies on the internal application generator, and benefits from the common core: from the permissions system where you can restrict the actions of different users, to the log layer that allows you to review requests for Web APIs.

Being based on the application generator ensures that the business logic with all data checks is stretched across the APIs, so that the interfaces are based on the system core.

The line of systems supports the most stringent advanced security standards, and various authentication modes, both as client and server.

‍

Two-way integration with suppliers

‍

The systems enable real-time interfacing with global XML providers such as Expedie, Hotelbeds, TBO and Travelgate X.

The ability to pull out availability, prices and conditions in real time gives a direct advantage to the tourism market!

And similarly, this approach is tailored to every area — both in reserve management, orders and prices, and in optics, CRM and banking.

‍

Full API Documentation and Ongoing Maintenance

‍

Systems Line provides complete documentation for developers — including Endpoint Description, JSON/XML examples, reply codes, Authorization mechanisms.

In recent interfaces, Open API documentation and Postman examples allow external development teams to integrate safely and quickly, without a “broken phone”.

‍

Adaptation to different sectors: tourism, banking and optics

‍

• In the tourism industry, the TOPS platform allows booking of flights, hotels, transfers, tours, static and dynamic package tours, with APIs for B2B, CRM and ERP.
• In the ERP world, the system interfaces with interfaces for regulation (Israel Invoicing, etc.), B2B, BI systems, and a host of external complementary systems, from the worlds of production, inventory management, warehouses, distribution.
• In banking and financial systems, the API enables connection to manage loans, mortgages, credit accounts, reporting control and more — including full regulatory support for the Israeli market.
• In the world of optics, there are two-way interfaces with lens and frame manufacturers in Israel, including combinations of cutting and adjustment systems.

‍

Direct contribution to ROI and data control

‍

APIs enable real-time collection and retrieval of information — from prices to activity reports, profitability and usage.

Built-in dashboards allow the CTO to take a snapshot in days or even moments, automate business and save resources compared to manual import-export processes.

‍

Complementary management tools

‍

In addition to the API, System Line enables fault monitoring, load control, and activity reports — ensuring prompt handling of problems, controlling interfaces, and improving the user experience for the needed systems.

‍

Main conclusion to the CTO

‍

Systems line APIs are not just a technical tool -- but a strategic engine to improve ROI, Transparency, Safety and Business Flexibility.

Whether it's ERP integration, FinTech connectivity, cloud interfacing, or vendor broadband integration — the company's unconventional API capabilities provide the company with a significant competitive advantage.
