An Application Programming Interface (API) is a method of connecting applications, databases and devices to allow the transfer of data between one system and another. An API takes requests from a user and tells another system what you want to do i.e. add a driver, terminate a driver. It then returns a response back to the user. A further graphical explanation can also be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7wmiS2mSXY
An API will allow your CMS (Compliance Managed System) Portal and your in‐house database to interact with each other, i.e. a HR database and your CMS portal, to connect and share the data held on each. For example, an API would in its simplest form add and delete starters and leavers.
Other Examples:
Licence Bureau have created a simple API for your company to utilise.
