Connect to any API and manage access tokens in one place
Also listed as: Generic API connector & token management
What is it?
Xelence includes a generic API connector for calling outside systems that have no ready-made connector. It also manages access tokens, the digital keys that prove Xelence is allowed to call another system.
Why does it matter?
Your team can integrate with almost any system while keeping its credentials stored and managed centrally.
Start thinking about
- Which integrations matter most to your operations, and which would you modernize first?
- Do you keep a current inventory of your interfaces and file exchanges, and who owns each one?
- What does your security policy require for credentials, encryption and access between systems?
- Who approves a new or changed connection to a partner system?
- Which manual hand-offs between systems would you most like to automate?
- How will you coordinate integration testing with partners when you take a new Xelence release?
