How to Integrate
AP21 requires some configuration by your AP21 contacts and the Lexer Solutions team. The first step to get the ball rolling, is to engage your AP21 account manager and ask them to configure your data for export and transfer. This will require a bit of ongoing work to manage the data flow, so make sure you discuss your plan of attack with your account manager when setting this up. It’s also important to note, any customizations or new data will require engagement with AP21 and Lexer to customize the feed.
AP21 Data structure
Apparel21 has two relevant schemas that your data will need to be transformed to suit:
1. Customer data
2. Transactional data
