App FAQ

Apps are programs or a connections that allow data to be exchanged between E-conomic and another system, such as a webshop for example. The connection made by an app can automate administrative tasks between the two systems so you can avoid wasting time on manual repetitive tasks.

If you have an E-conomic agreement, you also have access to our API - a free add-on module that can be activated instantly. We've even made a small video to show you how to activate the API in your E-conomic agreement.

Your choice of programming language isn't critical, because E-conomic uses open web-based standards (SOAP) for communication.

No. You have the opportunity to create an app for E-conomic whether you have in-house development resources or not.

Do you have in-house development resources? If so, there is a good chance that you can develop the app between your systems and E-conomic yourself because E-conomic's API uses open standards.

Do you not have access to development resources? If you're searching for a solution that is not available on our app list, then you can always hire external technical experts to create the solution for you.

E-conomic's API (application programming interface) is completely documented on our website. Our API is written in .NET (we also provide an extra development package for .NET developers) but you can access the API from PHP, JAVA and other programming languages as well since it is exposed through a SOAP interface.

If you have a specific issue - for example your code doesn't work or the API doesn't respond the way you expected - then you can write to our API support. E-conomic has developers who will look into your issue and respond within 1-2 working days

You also have the opportunity to learn from the experiences of other developers and partners in our API Forum. In this forum you can ask other developers who work with E-conomic's API whether they have solutions to your problem or if they can guide you in your choice of solution.

Do you have questions about partnering with E-conomic, the display of you app on E-conomic's website or other non-technical issues? If so, please contact the E-conomic app team, who are ready to help you with your general app queries.

Do you think that other people are likely experiencing the same challenges that you are? If so, try to search for these issues or ask about them directly in our API forum.

Our API forum has a section where companies and partners can come up with solutions together.

Are you are a developer with a good idea for an E-conomic app, but don't know about the customer demands? If so, please contact our app team or ask around in our API forum.

If the app that you're looking for doesn't exist, then you or a developer can create an app that uses the API to connect your solution with E-conomic. Begin this process by asking the app team for advice or have a look at the API documentation.
