Apport Data API
Use your warehouse data for BI, reporting and integrations
Apport Data API gives you secure, standardised access to data from Apport WMS. Use warehouse data for BI, reporting and integrations – without direct database access.
ACCESS TO YOUR WMS DATA
What is Apport Data API?
Apport Data API is a standardised interface that lets you retrieve data from Apport WMS and use it in other systems. This may be a BI tool, a reporting solution or an integration that requires data from warehouse operations. Data is retrieved through a defined data layer, so external systems do not need direct access to the database.
This gives you a more controlled and structured way to use your warehouse data outside Apport WMS.
Controlled access to warehouse data
Direct database access can be difficult to manage and create unnecessary risks. With Apport Data API, data is made available through a standardised interface, helping you retain control over access.
A stable foundation for integrations
The API connects Apport WMS with the systems that need to use your warehouse data. Integrations can therefore be built around a fixed, defined data layer rather than a direct database connection.
APPORT DATA API CAPABILITIES
Use your warehouse data in other systems
Apport WMS continuously collects data on warehouse activities. With Apport Data API, relevant data can be retrieved and used where you need it. The API does not perform the analyses itself. It makes data available, allowing you to process, visualise and combine it in your own solutions.
Secure data access
Retrieve data from Apport WMS without giving external systems direct access to the database – a far more controlled model.
Standardised interface
Integrations are built on a fixed, defined data layer, making data access more structured and stable over time.
Integration with external systems
Make relevant warehouse data available to the other solutions across your system landscape.
BI and reporting
Use warehouse data in external BI tools and reporting solutions, where you can continue working with the figures.
