Connecting iChemistry to business systems via REST API
iChemistry is a powerful and flexible SaaS platform designed to streamline chemical management, compliance, and safety processes. To maximize its usefulness and ensure it integrates seamlessly into your organization's digital ecosystem, iChemistry supports a range of integration possibilities through standardized REST API interfaces.
Whether you're looking to automate data transfers, enhance compliance workflows, or centralize operational information, there are several ways to connect iChemistry with other business systems.
Integration Possibilities
The available integration types can support a variety of business needs. Below are the most common use cases:
1. Label Data exchange
Purpose: Automatically retrieve or push label data for printing in your own label printing software.
Use Case: Send chemical label data from iChemistry to your ERP, labeling, or production system to ensure synchronized and compliant labeling data across production lines.
2. Safety data sheets (SDS) for product analysis
Purpose: Enable external systems to access SDS metadata or content for internal safety or chemical analysis processes.
Use Case: A manufacturing system querying SDS classification codes, risk phrases, or other safety information to evaluate risk during product development.
3. Dynamic links to SDS Documents
Purpose: Create direct, always-up-to-date links to SDSs hosted in iChemistry.
Use Case: Embed SDS links in internal tools, customer portals, or quality management systems to ensure stakeholders access the latest safety information.
4. Quantity transfers for regulatory reporting
Purpose: Import quantities of chemical products from ERP or logistics systems into iChemistry.
Use Case: Automate reporting obligations to authorities (e.g., Swedish Chemicals Agency, REACH, or PRTR) by pulling in transaction volumes directly from your financial or inventory systems.
5. Department structure synchronization
Purpose: Manage organizational structure within iChemistry by syncing departments.
Use Case: Automatically add, move, or delete departments in iChemistry based on changes in the HR or organizational master data system (e.g., Active Directory or an HRM platform).
6. Custom report-based data retrieval
Purpose: Retrieve tailored data sets from iChemistry to external systems through custom-made reports.
Use Case: Enable downstream systems (e.g., Power BI, ERP, compliance platforms) to pull exactly the data they need—such as usage statistics, inventory summaries, or compliance flags—via endpoints tied to custom reports.
Note: This type of integration is highly flexible and can expose virtually any data in the system. However, it typically requires consultancy to define the report scope and implement the solution.
Integration Architecture: REST API
All system integrations are based on RESTful API communication, offering:
- Secure Access: API keys and HTTPS for encrypted and authenticated requests.
- Scalability: Supports small-scale operations to enterprise-wide rollouts.
- Flexibility: JSON-based payloads and standardized endpoints for a wide range of data types and operations.
Documentation: Full API documentation available upon request.
