API

An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of programming instructions and standards for accessing a web-based software application such as a CMMS. It provides developers with a way to access the functionality and features of a CMMS software, enabling them to build their own applications that interact with the application. APIs are used in maintenance operations and management to allow for CMMS integration where different systems and applications can integrate with the CMMS, allowing for the automation of tasks and the sharing of data between them. APIs can also be used to create custom applications that can be used to monitor and manage maintenance operations.
