We're focused on changing the way high-mix, low-volume shops are run, managed, and provide their businesses and services to their clients. We know that this change won't happen overnight— and the we can't do it alone.
So we wanted to build a platform that anyone could build on top of, and that allows production scheduling data to flow in and out (versus having all the data locked up in our system).
With our production scheduling API, developers are able to build apps and integrations based on scheduling data and based on execution data in real-time — not just on past incidents like exported data, information received via email, or data provided on the phone.
At just plan it, customers always come first. And we strongly believe that opening up our platform gives our customers even more opportunities to succeed.
The first thing to know is, that the API requires a key to be sent in a header of each HTTP request.
To get this key, all you need to do is:
Here you will find a new Button “Generate new API Key” with a text field above it. Clicking this, will remove any existing key from our database and generate a new one associated with your account.
Last year, we released our production scheduling API and said that this was a major step. First, towards better integration with other systems such as your ERP system. Second, with 3rd party apps that we or others could build on top of the just plan it platform. With this blog, I like to shed a light on how easy integrating just plan it with any ERP has become.
Following our initial release of the just plan it production scheduling API we did mention that it was only a small first step to give you the same capabilities as the graphical user interface allows. We have now taken a big step to fully align the API with all application functions.
When we made the rough outline of what we wanted to add to just plan it this year, one thing stood out. As Martin outlined in his blog, we wanted to open up jpi to both give ourselves an easier option to connect to other systems, but also enable customers to build those connections or even other ways of using just plan it by themselves.
When we launched just plan it a few years ago, we were a simple cloud-based visual production scheduling software for SMB manufacturers. But as we talked to production planners, operation managers and company owners using our product day after day, week after week, month after month, and incorporated their feedback into the product, just plan it began to evolve.
And see for yourself what Just Plan It can do for your production
