*API*
Data can be exported from CharityTracker into CSV format, a popular format for importing data into other systems -- Additionally, CharityTracker’s API (currently in Beta), our application programming interface, will allow our system to "talk" with other software. This opens a world of possibilities. Programmatic access to your data means integrations of all kinds can be created. As with any API, integrating into another software system will be the responsibility of your IT department to determine if the software also has an API or if there will need to be a custom implementation.
