Many users of PetSitConnect.com have wanted to integrate functions of the software with their own websites so they can provide a good customer experience without having to redirect from their site.
So, after a lot of work over the last few weeks, the API is now available with limited functionality. Users can now perform the following functions using a simple POST/RESPONSE interface. All data is sent as post variables, with the build of the information formatted as a JSON encoded string. This allows anyone proficient with PHP, ASP.net, or other server technology to build interfaces quickly and easily.
The following functions are available now:
- Get list of clients with filters on any field
- Get list of sitters with filters on any field
- Add a client record
- Add a sitter record
In the following weeks, additional functions will be available, including:
- Get invoice information
- Post a payment or adjustment to an invoice
- Get a list of scheduled visits for a period of time
- Mark a visit as completed or canceled
- Add new client prospects
- Send request for service
Documentation will be out soon and we’ll post that when it’s available. Once this is complete, we’ll use the API ourselves to build a mobile site and mobile apps for iPhone and Android.
