Developer Platform Overview

The Pax8 Developer Platform provides you with the tools and resources to automate many manual tasks within the Pax8 Platform. This includes but is not limited to managing companies, placing orders, updating subscriptions, looking up product information, and reading invoices.

Calls to the API use standard HTTP requests. Each call returns JSON-formatted data along with standard HTTP response codes.

Your Central Hub: The Pax8 Integrations Hub

While all our public API documentation is located here on this site, the actual creation and management of your API credentials and other integration-related functionalities are handled within the Pax8 Integrations Hub in the Pax8 application.

You can find the Integrations Hub by going to "Settings > Integrations" in the left navigation of the Pax8 app. The Integrations Hub is currently only accessible to Partner Admin and Primary Partner Admin roles.

Within the Integrations Hub, you can:

• Create and Manage API Credentials: Generate your secure API access tokens.
  • Access credentials here: https://app.pax8.com/integrations?tab=credentials
• Explore Pre-built 3rd Party Integrations (Apps): Discover and manage existing integrations with other platforms.
  • Explore Apps here: https://app.pax8.com/integrations?tab=apps
• Hook Up Webhooks and Get Events: Subscribe to real-time events to build more efficient, event-driven integrations.
  • Manage Events here: https://app.pax8.com/integrations?tab=events
  • Learn more about subscribing to events on this documentation site: https://devx.pax8.com/docs/subscribe-to-events
• Try Our MCP Server: Integrate Pax8 data with your preferred AI tools for natural language interaction.
  • Access the MCP Server here: https://app.pax8.com/integrations?tab=mcpServer
  • Find more information about our MCP server on this documentation site: https://devx.pax8.com/docs/mcp-server

Note: Our MCP & Events functionality is currently in Beta to Pax8 Beyond attendees only. It will be in general release starting mid July 2025.

We encourage our partners to use a combination of these powerful features to build out robust integrations, improve efficiency, leverage AI, and enhance their business operations.

Leverage AI to Build Your Integration

Consider leveraging Generative AI tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, or other AI models to assist with building your integrations. By providing these tools with our OpenAPI specification, available here, and details about your own systems, you can receive AI-generated mockups of your integration flow.

This allows for faster prototyping and reduced manual coding efforts. These tools can suggest optimized API request structures, error handling, and even code snippets that match your systems' architecture, greatly accelerating your integration process. More details are available here.
