It’s a wild west of data out there, where rules and best practices are shot from the hip. This makes injesting data cleanly a colossal pain in the ass. Flatfile is the missing API for data exchange, import, and migration.

With Flatfile, you can:

  • Accept, transform, and validate data so that it arrives in your systems in exactly the right shape
  • Embed an easy-to-use, self-service data importer directly into your app
  • Invite your customers to collaborate on a hosted onboarding project, replacing hours of back-and-forth communication

Let’s design and build your dream data exchange experience.

About our API

The Flatfile API uses REST. Our API is designed to have predictable resource-oriented URLs and to use HTTP response codes to indicate API errors. It accepts form-encoded request bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs.

The Flatfile API doesn’t have a test mode; however, Environments allow you to test without affecting your live data.

Getting started

To begin working with Flatfile, follow this link to sign up and immediately retrieve your API keys.
