REST and SOAP
Flexible Integration for Every Architecture
Visual Planning offers two API types to fit your technical architecture and constraints.
REST API
Lightweight, modern, and stateless. Ideal for new integrations and web applications. Data exchanges over JSON on HTTPS.
- JSON data exchange
- Versioned endpoints /v1, /v2
- Standard HTTP responses
- Lightweight and high-performance
- Built for modern web applications
Best for:
Node.js, Python, Java, microservices, new integrations
SOAP API
Robust XML-based protocol. Built for legacy environments and enterprise systems requiring WSDL and formal contracts.
- XML / WSDL messaging
- WS-Security compatible
- Guaranteed transactions
- Legacy system support
- Adapté aux systèmes existants
- Garanties contractuelles fortes
Best for:
Legacy ERP, mainframes, and enterprise systems with strict integration requirements
Visual Planning API Use Cases
ERP Automation
Automatically import orders and work orders to generate schedules without manual intervention — eliminating the gap between your ERP and your scheduling team.
Internal Applications
Connect your in-house business tools to Visual Planning to centralize all scheduling data in one environment.
Process Automation
Automatically trigger actions — alerts, assignments, notifications — based on your custom business rules and scheduling events.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Visual Planning API?
The Visual Planning API lets you connect your scheduling platform to your business applications to automate data exchange and integrate scheduling into your existing IT environment. It is available in REST and SOAP to support every technical architecture.
Why connect Visual Planning to a CMMS?
A CMMS centralizes equipment data and work orders. Visual Planning adds the scheduling and team coordination layer most CMMS platforms do not provide. Together, they give maintenance managers a complete view of operations, team availability, and intervention status in real time.
What are the benefits of connecting a CMMS to Visual Planning?
The combination reduces unplanned downtime through better preventive planning, optimizes technical team utilization, lowers maintenance costs, and improves intervention traceability for audits and compliance reporting.
Can Visual Planning automate intervention scheduling?
Yes. Visual Planning automatically imports work orders from your CMMS and schedules interventions based on team availability, required skills, and operational priorities — without manual re-entry between systems.
Can Visual Planning integrate with an existing CMMS?
Yes. Visual Planning has native connectors for SAP PM, IBM Maximo, Infor EAM, Mainta, Sage, Divalto, and other leading CMMS platforms. Integration is bidirectional via REST API — data flows automatically between systems with no duplicate entry.
What types of maintenance can be managed with a CMMS and Visual Planning?
The combination covers all three maintenance types: corrective (post-breakdown interventions), preventive (calendar-based planned interventions), and predictive (data-driven interventions based on equipment condition analysis). Visual Planning optimizes team scheduling and coordination for every maintenance type.
Disorganized Maintenance Costs More Than You Think. Start Running It Properly.
Visual Planning complements your CMMS with the resource scheduling and field visibility your maintenance teams need — to intervene at the right time, with the right people, every time.
