How to connect your API with Qooper?
Overview
Connecting your system to Qooper via a Custom API is as easy as 1-2-3: Once you provide the necessary API credentials and endpoint details, the Qooper team handles the connection setup. With accurate data flowing into Qooper, you’re ready to launch mentoring, learning, and development programs with the right people at the right time.
Benefits of Integrating with Qooper
- Automated Data Sync: User profile fields (e.g., first name, last name, email, employee ID, job details, status, etc.) sync to Qooper on a Daily or Weekly schedule.
- Streamlined Onboarding: New users identified via your API are created in Qooper automatically, reducing manual entry and errors.
- Zero-touch Management: When users are removed or marked inactive in your system, their Qooper accounts update automatically.
- Security and Compliance: The integration uses secure HTTPS protocols and industry standard authentication to ensure your data is protected.
To start taking advantage of these benefits, the first step is to identify the authentication method and endpoints for your system.
