Maulik Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Is there any plan to support Modern API protocols - REST, gRPC or GraphQL? SOAP is almost dead and most vendors have moved on due to below reasons: SOAP had its glory 15-20 years back REST over http/2 results in smaller payload as compared to SOAP (XML vs Json) gRPC is more suitable for server to server connection e.g. We have our ecommerce shopping cart where customers place wholesale order and our inventory is in SageX3, in this case, we need to fetch up to date stock, pricing from X3. Using SOAP in this case, results in larger payload as compared to gRPC (XML vs Protobuf) Consuming SOAP from frontend app is hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cochrane, Stephen Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Hi, Depending which products you use you'll see that we're already using some of these API Protocols. For Example, Sage X3 has introduced a GraphQL API which is documented here - https://developers.sage.com/x3/graphql/ and a REST based Data Integration API which is documented here - https://developers.sage.com/x3/data-integration/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
