Introduction

The Veeqo API gives you everything you need to build the world's most powerful tools for ecommerce retailers.

You can integrate any external application or service with a retailer's Veeqo account. This allows you to do just about anything you can do in the Veeqo Web App using the programming language of your choice.

Our API is built using Ruby on Rails and based on RESTful principles, using predictable and explorable URLs, HTTP requests and JSON responses.

Create a Veeqo account

To work with Veeqo's API you will need to Create a Veeqo account. This will take you through the same steps as a new store owner to register for a free Veeqo account.

Veeqo Ruby Gem

Our friends over at COAX have built a Ruby Gem to integrate with our API. If you're building with Ruby then this is an invaluable resource. They also have a load of examples on the GitHub for the gem that are definately worth checking out.

Limits

The API has requests rate limits per key/token powered by a Leaky Bucket algorithm. If requests come too frequently, they are queued in a bucket. If the queue reaches the bucket limit, the API responds with HTTP 429 error.

The current limit is 5 requests per second with a bucket size up to 100 requests.
