API & integrations
With the VARSL API, CLP data and safety data sheets can be shared with the systems your company already uses.
This could, for example, be your webshop, your PIM system, a headless solution, or an accounting system.
In short: VARSL brings together the relevant safety information — and the API makes it possible to pull it in where it needs to be used.
An API is best described as a digital connection between two systems.
It works as a gateway where the systems can exchange information with each other.
In VARSL’s case, this means that other systems can retrieve relevant information such as:
How the information is displayed is entirely up to you in your own system.
VARSL provides the data and documentation. Your developers or web partner handle the actual setup and display.
A PIM system is used to collect and manage product information in one place.
For companies with many products, it can be a major advantage that CLP data and safety data sheets can also be included in the overall product data.
With the VARSL API, relevant safety information can be linked to the products in your PIM system.
This makes it easier to work with:
This way, the PIM system can remain the central place for product information, while VARSL provides the relevant CLP and SDS data.
In a standard webshop, the system behind the scenes and the design the customer sees are often closely connected.
In a headless webshop, the two parts are separated. This means the company can still manage products, prices, inventory, and orders in, for example, Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, or PrestaShop — but the webshop itself, which the customer sees, is built separately. The two parts communicate via APIs.
VARSL fits well into this type of solution, because CLP data and safety data sheets can be retrieved via API and displayed exactly where you want them on the product page.
You decide the design, placement, and user experience.
VARSL provides the information.
For some companies, it may also be relevant to link safety information with accounting systems or order flows.
This could, for example, be if product numbers, item names, or customer data are used across the webshop, warehouse, invoicing, and documentation.
With an API integration, VARSL can become part of the overall system landscape, making it easier to link CLP data and safety data sheets to the right products.
This can provide a better overview and fewer manual workflows, especially if the company handles many products or multiple sales channels.
API and integrations are particularly relevant for companies that:
If you have a simpler webshop, the VARSL widget may be enough.
If you want a more customised and automated solution, an API may be the right way to go.
VARSL provides access to relevant product data, safety information, and technical documentation, so your developers can build the connection.
We help make CLP data and safety data sheets available, so they can be used in your own systems.
This gives you the freedom to choose how the information should be displayed, where it should be placed, and how it should fit into your existing workflows.
With the VARSL API, you get a more flexible way of working with CLP data and safety data sheets.
It is a solution for companies that do not just want to display the information in one way,
but want to integrate it into their own webshop, product database, or system structure.
VARSL provides the data.
You decide how it is used.
