Salesforce1 provides users with a feature-rich platform for building apps, integrating data, and automating business processes. To take full advantage of the Salesforce1 platform, our API Server offers a straightforward way to connect Salesforce1 with live data from a wide range of back-office data including on-premise and cloud databases, ERP systems, accounting, and more.

Our API Server create OData entry-points for your back-end data, allowing your Salesforce1 applications to access back office data in real-time.

Real-Time Integration

Connect to live back-office data. No ETL required.

Building applications on Salesforce 1 with real-time data connectivity has never been easier thanks to our API Server. Our API Server seamlessly translates OData requests from Salesforce 1 into various database, API, or Web service calls to back-end systems. The resulting data is then mapped and returned to Salesforce as a set of simple data tables. This allows users to build Salesforce applications faster, easily navigating back-end data through familiar relational database interfaces.
