Backend Integration

This guide provides an overview of how to integrate your platform's backend with Easyteam.

Overview

When using the Easyteam white-label UI components, most interactions with the backend are handled automatically.

With an Easyteam Embedded partner key, you can interact with the Easyteam API to build custom integrations tailored to your platform’s workforce management needs.

Authentication & Security

Easyteam employs a robust two-layer security system to protect your integration:

Partner Authentication: Your platform is identified using a unique partner key provided by our team.

Cryptographic Verification: All data exchanged between your platform and Easyteam servers is cryptographically signed to ensure security and integrity.

WARNING

Never expose your partner key in client-side code. Always handle API authentication through your backend services.

For detailed implementation of the authentication system, see our Authentication Guide.

Event Handling & Webhooks

Easyteam provides real-time updates through webhooks for events such as:

Clock-in/out activities

Break starts and ends

Timesheet modifications

Settings changes

Timesheets exports

Implementing Webhook Handlers

To start using webhooks:

Verify and respond to webhook signatures.

Process incoming events according to your platform's business logic.

💡

Webhooks are the recommended way to respond to events in Easyteam and communicate with your users in real-time.

For implementation details and event types, see our Webhooks Documentation.
