How do I integrate Sapling API with my application?

Apideck provides a unified HRIS API that makes Sapling integration simple. Sign up for free, enable Sapling in your dashboard, and use our Vault component to let your users connect their Sapling accounts. We handle OAuth authentication, token refresh, and data normalization automatically.

What Sapling data can I access through Apideck?

Our Sapling integration supports 1+ data models including users. You can perform read and write operations through our unified API, working with the same code structure across all hris platforms.

How does Sapling authentication work with Apideck?

Apideck's Vault handles Sapling authentication completely. Your users connect their Sapling accounts through our secure, white-label UI. We manage OAuth tokens, automatic refresh, and credential storage, so you never have to implement Sapling's auth flow yourself.

Does Apideck support Sapling webhooks?

Yes, Apideck provides real-time notifications when Sapling data changes. Our unified webhook system normalizes events across all integrations, so you handle Sapling events with the same code you use for other hris platforms.

Why use Apideck instead of Sapling's direct API?

Using Apideck's unified API instead of Sapling's direct API saves significant development time. You get normalized data models, automatic auth handling, and the same integration code works with 200+ other apps. When Sapling updates their API, we handle the changes so your integration keeps working.

How quickly can I build a Sapling integration?

Most developers ship a working Sapling integration within a day using Apideck. Sign up for a free trial (no credit card required), enable Sapling, and make your first API call within minutes. Our SDKs for Node.js, Python, and other languages make implementation straightforward.
