ERP providers constantly seek ways to enhance their offerings, streamline operations, and provide superior value to their clients in the ever-evolving landscape of enterprise software. One of the most transformative strategies in this domain is the integration of iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service). This blog post explores how partnering with an iPaaS can significantly boost an ERP provider’s capabilities, offering strategic advantages and substantial ROI.

Financial services organisations are constantly pressured to streamline operations while maintaining stringent security and compliance standards. As back-office processes become more complex, a flexible, scalable, and automated integration platform becomes essential. Linx addresses these challenges by providing an advanced platform that delivers highly customisable solutions tailored to each organisation’s needs.

The latest version of Linx is out.

While many tools exist to build and deploy your no-code APIs, your options are limited when your solution requires a custom or highly bespoke APIs that execute custom logic.

Integrations can be done efficiently with IPaaS tools. Quickly set up point-to-point connectors, add logic and orchestration, and the integration is done and configured. The difficulty comes with more custom and bespoke systems. For example, when custom fields are added to an ERP or CRM, when you need to integrate with a legacy system, or when there is no connector to interact with. Linx can assist in cases where high flexibility and customization are required.

When using Linx, you may wonder how to access isolated or hard-to-reach resources. It may be that that resource is unreachable because of firewalls or strict control and governance policies. There are a few options to access these gated resources.

Many organizations are turning to SharePoint to store their files and share documents. Allowing your systems to access these files might seem like a challenge at first, but with the help of the Microsoft Graph API, you can quickly download the file to start processing on your back-end. Download the example solution to get started. Use the created functions in your solution to simplify Microsoft Graph integration.

Microsoft Graph API allows developers to access data and services across a wide range of Microsoft cloud services. Admittedly setting up permissions and security can be challenging, but once that is sorted, you will be able to access Microsoft services such as Office365, Outlook and Azure. Calling the Graph API with Linx allows you to efficiently automate tasks, or integrate with Microsoft products to ensure that functionality and data is accessible by your other systems.

Generating files for data extracts, reporting and even data migration is a crucial part of any back-end team. A typical data team will have to generate many files to be sent to various clients or consumers inside or outside of the organisation. As with all things, the question is how can the generation of those files be made simpler, and can it be automated to such a degree that files are dynamically generated? The short answer is yes, it can be done dynamically.

File and folder management is a large part of backend development. Whether you are creating files, importing files, or simply following organisation standards, every system needs to consider how files are stored and archived. This is especially important for ETL or data-loading solutions. Low-code tools are a good choice when you create a process to automate your file archiving.
