Akeneo Objects / Endpoints

Product Information Management (PIM)

Akeneo offers extensive Product Information Management (PIM) capabilities, which allow businesses to manage, enrich, and distribute their product data across multiple channels. The Akeneo PIM is designed to be highly adaptable, supporting integrations with a wide range of eCommerce platforms, ERPs, and other business systems through its robust API.

API Integration

Akeneo’s REST API provides a comprehensive set of endpoints that allow for the creation, retrieval, updating, and deletion of product information. These endpoints cover various aspects such as products, categories, attributes, media files, and more. The API supports standard HTTP verbs like GET, POST, PATCH, and DELETE, and it uses JSON for data exchange, ensuring compatibility and ease of integration with other systems.

eCommerce and Marketplace Integrations

Akeneo supports integrations with leading eCommerce platforms like Shopify, Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, BigCommerce, and Shopware. These integrations allow businesses to seamlessly push enriched product data from Akeneo PIM to their online stores, ensuring consistency and reducing time-to-market.

Digital Asset Management (DAM)

Akeneo also integrates with Digital Asset Management systems to ensure that high-quality media assets are easily associated with product information. This ensures that all product-related images, videos, and documents are accessible and correctly linked across various sales channels.

Print and Catalog Management

For businesses that require print catalog capabilities, Akeneo offers integrations with print service providers, enabling efficient management of print materials like brochures and data sheets directly from the PIM.

Akeneo App Store and Custom Connectors

Akeneo provides a marketplace for pre-built connectors, making it easier to integrate with various third-party applications. If a specific connector is not available, businesses can develop custom connectors using the Akeneo API, which is designed to support such extensions with detailed guidance on best practices for development and integration.
