Mapping data flows
We determine what information comes from where, which system is leading and when changes need to be processed. Duplicate data and exceptions also receive attention.
EXPERTISE 03 / INTEGRATIONS & INTEGRATIES
An API integration lets software systems exchange data without manual retyping. CipherCore develops connectors and middleware that translate data structures, apply business rules and handle errors.

We determine what information comes from where, which system is leading and when changes need to be processed. Duplicate data and exceptions also receive attention.
Where possible, we use existing APIs and webhooks. We develop the translation between fields, data structures and business rules.
Do multiple systems, checks or operations need to work together? Then we build middleware: custom software that receives, processes and delivers data to the right place.
We account for temporary outages, duplicate messages and changes to external systems. Logging, secure access and manageable error handling are part of the design.
Sometimes the solution lies in an API, sometimes in an import, export or custom middleware. We assess what's technically possible, permitted and reliably manageable.
EXAMPLE APPLICATION
Suppose customer details and requests arrive in a CRM while administration runs in another package. An integration can retrieve, translate and process the required fields according to agreed rules.
We define which system is authoritative, how duplicate messages are recognised and what happens during an outage. This makes data exchange traceable in practice.
Our role in TaskTime integrationsPRACTICAL
Then we investigate the other possibilities, such as available exports, imports or a supported data exchange. We map the limitations and advise a suitable route; access and toestemming moeten goed geregeld zijn.
An API integration uses a system’s interface to exchange data. Middleware is an intermediate layer that can also translate data, perform checks and connect multiple systems or process steps.
We investigate available APIs, documentation, authentication and vendor terms, then establish which data exchange is possible. Appropriate access, licences and permission need to be in place.
Costs depend on the systems, interfaces, data fields and checks required. Synchronisation, error handling and maintenance also matter. We agree on scope and costs after investigating these requirements.
