Libre API
Libre streamlines access to your data through a searchable, self-documenting GraphQL API. One access point for everything in the Manufacturing Knowledge Graph with the ability to return only the data set that you need.
Libre API Benefits
The power of GraphQL at your fingertips
One version of the truth
This is an overused and underdelivered buzzword in manufacturing software. Most data hub platform APIs are a mess of data silos. Each with their own API.
Libre has one API - using Apollo GraphQL Federation - to expose all the data in Libre Core.
Focused
Most REST APIs "overfetch" data, requiring your applications to make many calls to the API to refine the data set until you get to what you need.
The Libre GraphQL API lets you get to only the data that you need, whether that is a lot or a little.
Self documenting
Data model and API documentation is often overlooked; especially when a product has been customized.
This leads to support challenges and buggy user interfaces. The Libre GraphQL API is self-documenting and reflects all changes to the data model instantly.
Discoverable
GraphQL "Playground" tools help you develop your queries and inspect the API.
Every piece of equipment, every material, every property, every process is exposed so that you can “click” your way to only the data that you need, avoiding the overfetching common in REST APIs.
