Client credentials are requested from Paraşüt; which plan includes API access should be confirmed with the vendor. - **OAuth2 authorization** Access is granted through OAuth2, with separate flows for user-approved connections and background services. Access tokens expire, so a refresh flow is required. For a background service, a separate user with limited permissions is recommended. ### Worth knowing - API client credentials are requested from Paraşüt; we found no source showing they can be self-issued. - Which plan includes the API, and the conditions of the application process, should be confirmed with the vendor. - The documentation defines a request rate limit, so WhatsApp queries use caching and queuing. - The API documentation's latest change log entry is old; its currency should be confirmed with Paraşüt.

[Contact us](#apply) 01 Does Paraşüt have a publicly available API? Yes, the Paraşüt API V4 documentation is published. It states that almost every action in the web interface can be done through the API, and asks that client credentials be requested from Paraşüt. 02 How do you connect to the Paraşüt API? OAuth2 is used, with two defined flows: a user-approved connection and background access with user credentials. The access token is time-limited and renewed with a refresh token. 03 What can be asked about Paraşüt over WhatsApp? Based on the documented endpoints, customer, invoice, product, stock and account transaction data can be read. Which ones are enabled depends on the authorized user and your needs. 04 Does Paraşüt's request limit matter? The documentation defines a request rate limit. For that reason, frequent queries are cached and requests are queued; query frequency is planned together for heavy use. 05 What if Paraşüt is offline or slow? The customer is told that the information is not available right now and the conversation is handed to your team. No answer is made up from old data. 06 How long does setup take? A single flow (for example stock and price enquiries) is usually live within days; wider setups are added step by step. Setup is remote, anywhere in Turkey.
