  • Mobile, web, and No-Code applications like OutSystems, Unqork, AppSheet, unlocking data in legacy systems for modern front-end applications.
  • External APIs or Internal APIs for microservices to replace current CSV or Excel file data distribution, providing professional APIs to customers or partners, accelerating microservice initiatives


Build professional APIs in minutes for safer data sharing

Unlock your database with REST APIs in three steps

CData API Server supports a wide range of databases and data stores, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, IBM DB2, Microsoft Access, SQLite, Cassandra, Sybase, Snowflake, and more.

Define endpoints and HTTP methods (GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, and Stored Procedures) from the connected database to create APIs tailored to user needs. No coding required. CData API Server auto-generates live API documentation for created APIs and offers robust management features such as user management, rate limiting, IP address restriction, page size setting, CORS setting, and management API.

Set user access with Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). CData API Server provides strong management features, including rate limiting, IP address restriction, page size setting, CORS setting, and management API to ensure high security and availability.

custom APIs

Developer and API consumer benefits

Eliminates the need for manual API coding with enterprise-scale REST APIs with tens and hundreds of endpoints. Build professional APIs with control over security and access.

Instantly provide all resources, methods, server responses, authorization details, and supported output formats, ensuring no discrepancies between the actual API and documentation.

Provide OData compliant metadata and meet Open API Specification (OAS) easily so consumers can integrate created APIs and understand what objects are exposed and their data types.
