Introducing our APIs
A faster and easier way to do business.
What is an API?
An Application Programming Interface (API) is a piece of software that enables applications to talk to each other.
APIs are very common – they work in the background whenever you use apps such as Google, Facebook or Uber. And they’re a vital element of digital transformation.
