Starter Workflows

Start with Integration Guides to follow common Pax8 automation patterns for billing, ordering, subscription management, and other workflows.

Use Integration Guides when you know the business problem you want to solve but need a clear implementation path. These guides help you choose a use case, understand the recommended API and event pattern, and follow step-by-step guidance before you move into lower-level API details.

When to use Integration Guides

• Use them when you want a faster path than starting from raw API reference pages.
• Use them when you need a blueprint for a common use case such as ordering, subscription management, or billing.
• Use them when you want to understand how APIs and events work together before you implement the details.

Core integration blueprints

For the 4 most common partner integration disciplines, start with these blueprint pages on DevX. Each one explains how that part of the Pax8 system works and helps you design a more robust implementation before you move into lower-level API details.

• Ordering Products: Learn how to activate companies, validate order inputs, and build reliable order submission flows.
• Subscription Management: Understand subscription lifecycle changes, timing rules, and event-driven downstream workflows.
• Invoice & Billing Integrations: Choose between waiting for finalized invoices or reconstructing billing earlier in your own system.
• Understanding Usage Products: Identify usage-based products, map resource groups, and choose the right usage data source.

Next steps
