Take your in/out data with you wherever you want to be. Create status updates from the API for all kinds of clever use cases. You can build everything from apps to websites to hardware integrations. You're only limited by your imagination.
We use OAuth2 and JSON, the same authentication technology and payload types used by the most popular APIs on the internet (Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc). There are countless tools for most major programming platforms that will make authenticating with our API a breeze.
Our APIs are documented with requests and responses. In our documentation we note our general principles, all our endpoints, and lay out examples of requests and responses. No mysteries, just fun.

Web Hooks send a request to a URL of your choosing to let you know about status changes within your company. We send information about what just happened in the body of the request in the JSON format, perfect for doing all sorts of things without authentication. Web Hooks are even fully compatible with Slack!
Included on this page is an example of a Web Hook response for a status update on behalf of a user named "Bojack Horseman".
