The iScout API make it possible for you to move data between iScout and a third-party system such as an HR system, BI tools, telemetry services, SAP, NetSuite, and more.
To be clear, an API is a programming interface that your organization’s IT group would use to connect the two systems. iScout does not create custom connections into third party systems.
