REST API Interface: Headless Engineering

The Design Atlas REST API enables seamless integration of our proven calculation kernels into your own software environment, ERP systems, or automated web platforms.

What is the REST API?

The API (Application Programming Interface) allows other programs to send input data to the Design Atlas and receive calculated results in a structured JSON format. This happens "headless" in the background, without any graphical user interface.

Key Use Cases

• Automated Quoting: Link your web configurator directly to our calculation modules to provide instant, technically validated prices to your customers.
• Batch Calculations: Run thousands of variations (e.g., for heat exchanger optimization) through a script (Python, C#, or Java).
• ERP Integration: Automatically sync technical design limits with your material management system.

Technical Details

The interface follows standard REST principles and can be accessed via simple HTTP requests:

• Example Endpoint: https://api.xxx-xxx-xxx.com/v1/calculate/
• Format: JSON (Input & Output)
• Authentication: Secure API-Key or OAuth2.
