Smaller attack surface
You do not hand out generic DB connections: you define which dataset is exposed and with which keys.
Read-only data API
Governed API on your data: integrate without exposing the database
When another system, partner or script needs stable aggregates or datasets, you can publish read-only endpoints with dedicated credentials, on/off from the console and usage traceability—instead of wide VPNs or ad hoc database access.
You can sign up without a card and validate with a test source when it fits your schedule.
Governed API in practice
Connect this guide with dashboards, reports and equivalent routes in the same tenant.
Why a read-only API fits B2B
Faster integrations
Integration teams test real responses from the console before production.
Aligned with reporting
The same query logic can feed email reports, executive dashboards and API consumption.
When this output makes sense
Best when the bottleneck is no longer “export a CSV” but “keep a stable channel between systems.”
- Middleware, ESB or satellite apps that need periodic aggregates.
- Partners that need a data subset without logging into your ERP.
- Teams replacing scraping or manual dumps with a clear HTTP contract.
- IT that must revoke or isolate access without changing the schema.
Frequently asked questions
Does the API write to my ERP or database?
No. The product model is oriented to read and distribute; writes stay in the systems of record you already use.
Where are endpoint limits and plans shown?
In the billing and account console before you subscribe; not on this context page.
Product guide index
All public pages by use case: they help visitors and search engines see how topics connect—without mixing unrelated products.
