# libraryConnect | New API Integration for Enhanced Data Access

*February 2024*

Presently, libraries can view their data in libraryConnect Devices as a table or graph, which can be exported in a range of formats and can be scheduled as a regular report emailed directly to staff. 

The API (Application Programming Interface) software allows libraries to access up to 7 days of their data (for all devices and locations) directly from the libraryConnect Devices database instead of via the libraryConnect reporting tool. 

 

**▪ Enhanced Operational Features**

**Scheduling Flexibility:**   
Libraries can choose when to call the API, providing greater control over data retrieval compared to the scheduling tools in libraryConnect Devices. 

**Robust Data Delivery:**   
Receive raw data to process directly using any tool, not just Excel, especially beneficial for gate count data. 

**Free Access:**   
Any library with a valid libraryConnect Devices license can use the API free of charge, making it an accessible tool for all. 

 

**▪  API Functionality**

There are three API calls available for libraries:

1. Transactions: Covers borrow, return, renew and user login counts
2. Gate counts: includes In and Out counts from security gates
3. Payment: includes payment amounts and payment methods
