# HTTP API

The **JENTIS HTTP API** allows you to send data to JENTIS from any system capable of creating HTTP requests. This enables flexible server-side integrations beyond traditional website-based tracking.

Typical use cases include:

* Reporting **cancelled orders**
* Submitting data from a website where JENTIS cannot be integrated directly
* Sending transaction data from **POS / cash systems**
* Backend-driven events (e.g., CRM updates, subscription status changes)
* Offline-to-online data reconciliation

### Overview

The JENTIS HTTP API is designed for:

* Server-to-server communication
* Backend event reporting
* Secure transmission of tracking data
* Extending JENTIS tracking beyond browser environments

Because the API is HTTP-based, it can be used from:

* Backend systems (Node.js, Java, PHP, Python, etc.)
* ERP systems
* CRM systems
* Order management systems
* POS environments
* Scheduled batch jobs

### Authentication

To use the JENTIS HTTP API, you must obtain a dedicated **API Key**.

> ⚠️ Important\
> You must create a **Helpdesk ticket in JENTIS** to request access and receive your API key for this endpoint.

Without a valid API key, requests will be rejected.
