REST API, XML API, and developer resources

Application developers often need to post data to and extract data from Sage Intacct. Intacct offers two APIs to help with this work. Customization Services and Platform Services also provide useful features for development work. Combine the use of our APIs and other features to implement a round trip. For example, use a Smart event to send an HTTP POST to an external application. Then, leverage the Sage Intacct REST API to send a call back to Intacct.

Integrate using the REST API and Post data to Intacct

Seamlessly integrate with our platform, leveraging the simplicity and efficiency of RESTful architecture. The Sage Intacct REST API uses standard HTTP verbs and predictable URLs to enable operations on objects and data stored in Intacct. Use the Get Started guide found in the Sage Intacct Developer portal (REST API) to learn how to authenticate with the API, send test requests, and build an efficient client application.
