Connection intent

What are you trying to connect?

Start with the business event and source of truth. The endpoint is only one part of the operating workflow.

01

Website <-> CRM

Capture enquiries once, validate the record and keep ownership visible to sales.

02

Ecommerce <-> Payments

Coordinate order, payment, refund and fulfilment states without duplicate transactions.

03

Application <-> Third-Party API

Bring maps, identity, messaging or specialist services into a product with controlled failures.

04

CRM <-> Marketing Platform

Synchronise consent, lifecycle state, campaign activity and sales handoff.

05

ERP <-> Web Platform

Exchange approved product, inventory, customer or order data across operational boundaries.

06

Legacy System <-> Modern Platform

Use a documented facade, bridge or scheduled exchange while modernization progresses.

Integration services

Integration engineering across the stack

A clear contract, data owner and failure path make the connection supportable after the first successful request.

Third-Party API Integration

Connect established provider APIs to customer and internal workflows.

Custom API Development

Design controlled interfaces for product, partner and operations use cases.

REST API Integration

Build predictable request and response exchanges with explicit contracts.

GraphQL Integration

Use flexible queries where clients need carefully governed data access.

Webhook & Event Integration

Respond to orders, payments, forms, messages and business events.

Legacy System Integration

Create maintainable boundaries around older applications and data.

Payment Gateway Integration

Coordinate payment intent, status, refunds and reconciliation states.

CRM / ERP Integration

Keep system-of-record ownership and field movement unambiguous.

Request to outcome

An integration is a workflow, not just an endpoint.

Select a use case to see authentication, validation, transformation, business rules, destination state and monitoring work as one system.

CRM integration

Website form to CRM + sales owner

Turn a qualified website enquiry into one owned CRM record.

01Website form
02Authenticate
03Validate lead
04Transform fields
05Apply routing rule
06Create or update record
07Log + alert
08CRM + sales owner
Business outcome: The correct sales owner receives a complete, traceable record.

CRM

Turn a qualified website enquiry into one owned CRM record.

Payments

Keep order and payment state consistent after an authorization event.

Ecommerce

Move approved catalogue, stock and order events between commerce and operations.

Messaging

Convert a customer event into a permissioned, observable notification.

Data Sync

Exchange approved records between systems with reconciliation.

Connection patterns

Different systems need different connection patterns

The method follows timing, volume, reliability, provider limits and the operational cost of stale or incorrect data.

REST

Common request and response integrations with stable resource contracts.

GraphQL

Flexible, governed queries where clients need different data shapes.

Webhooks

Event-driven notifications such as payment, form and order changes.

WebSockets

Real-time connections where a persistent exchange is justified.

Scheduled Sync

Periodic batch movement when immediate exchange is unnecessary.

Queue / Events

Resilient asynchronous workflows with retry and back-pressure needs.

Business system connectors

Systems we connect

Platform names describe integration capability, not partnership or certification. Each scope is verified against the current provider API.

CRM

HubSpot / Zoho / Salesforce / EspoCRM

Payments

Stripe / Razorpay / Provider APIs

Ecommerce

Shopify / WooCommerce / Custom stores

Messaging

WhatsApp / Email / SMS providers

Cloud

AWS / Google Cloud / Serverless

Analytics

GA4 / Looker Studio / Data stores

Marketing

Forms / Campaign tools / Automation platforms

Internal Systems

ERP / Databases / Legacy applications

Reliability and security

Production integrations need failure handling.

RequestAuthValidateExecuteVerifyLogRetry / alert

Authentication

Use API keys, OAuth, signed requests or tokens according to the provider contract.

Validation

Check required inputs, response shapes and business invariants before state changes.

Rate Limits

Respect provider limits and design controlled backoff instead of uncontrolled retries.

Retries

Retry temporary failures safely and route persistent exceptions to an owner.

Idempotency

Prevent duplicated orders, payments or records where repeated requests are possible.

Logging & Monitoring

Expose failures, latency, volume and reconciliation signals to the responsible team.

Why Scallar

Reliable connections need operational ownership

The work is designed around real process, data and support responsibilities rather than a generic connector claim.

Workflow first

Understand the business event, decision and owner before writing a connector.

Failure states matter

Design the exception and recovery path alongside the successful path.

Data ownership stays clear

Document which system owns each record, field and correction.

Business systems stay connected

Treat integration as an operated workflow, not a one-time request.

Maintainability matters

APIs, schemas, credentials and volumes change after launch.

What does API integration include?+

API integration can include connecting apps, CRMs, payment gateways, WhatsApp, analytics, dashboards, internal tools, and third-party platforms through secure data flows.

Can Scallar build custom APIs?+

Yes. Scallar can build REST or GraphQL APIs, authentication flows, webhooks, data sync jobs, and backend services for business workflows.

How do you keep API integrations reliable?+

Reliable integrations need clear error handling, logging, retries, validation, permissions, documentation, and monitoring for failed syncs.

Can API integration support automation?+

Yes. APIs often power automation by moving lead, order, appointment, customer, or reporting data between systems without manual copy-paste.
