Merge provides a platform that streamlines the process of building and maintaining API integrations by utilizing software development kits (SDKs), which are available in six programming languages. These SDKs simplify integration tasks by abstracting endpoint details, offering guidance on parameters, and reducing the need for manual API documentation review, ultimately saving engineers significant time and preventing poorly-built integrations. By focusing on mature SDKs, developers can enhance their experience and concentrate on core product initiatives, while Merge's unified API allows for hundreds of integrations across software categories without the need for multiple SDKs. The platform offers detailed instructions and IntelliSense support to guide developers through making requests and handling responses efficiently, ensuring reliable and performant integrations.
