Most systems already speak through APIs; the value is in connecting them correctly. We integrate your applications with internal services and external providers using REST and GraphQL, with attention to authentication, rate limits, and failure modes. The result is dependable data exchange that holds up under load instead of breaking the first time a provider behaves unexpectedly.
Connecting your systems and providers
We integrate the APIs your business relies on, from shipping, SMS, and mapping providers to internal microservices and partner platforms. We read the provider's documentation closely, model their data accurately, and handle the edge cases their examples gloss over: pagination, partial responses, and inconsistent field formats. Where a provider's API is limited, we design a clear adapter layer so your application code stays clean and the provider's quirks are contained in one well-tested place.
Authentication and security
We implement the right authentication for each integration, including OAuth 2.0, API keys, signed requests, and token refresh handled automatically so connections do not silently expire. Secrets are stored securely rather than hard-coded, and traffic is restricted to expected endpoints. For APIs you expose to partners, we add authentication, rate limiting, and input validation so external callers cannot overload or misuse the interface, keeping your own systems protected behind it.
Resilience and error handling
External APIs go down, throttle, and change, so we build for that reality. We add timeouts, retries with backoff, and circuit breakers so a struggling provider does not cascade into your application. Responses are validated before use, and failures are logged with enough context to diagnose quickly. Where appropriate we cache responses and queue outbound calls, so brief provider outages slow things down rather than bring your features to a halt.

FAQs
Do you integrate both REST and GraphQL APIs?
Yes. We work with REST and GraphQL, choosing the most efficient approach for each provider. For GraphQL we craft precise queries to avoid over-fetching; for REST we handle pagination, filtering, and rate limits so data exchange stays efficient and within provider limits.
What happens when a third-party API is temporarily down?
We use timeouts, retries with backoff, and circuit breakers so a failing provider degrades gracefully instead of crashing your features. Outbound calls can be queued and reprocessed, and failures are logged with context so the cause is clear and recovery is quick.
