What is an "API endpoint" in Avaloq ICE?

An "API endpoint" in Avaloq Integrated Customization Environment (ICE) refers to a specific URL that acts as a point of access for various Avaloq functionalities. It allows developers to interact with the Avaloq system via application programming interfaces (APIs), enabling them to retrieve, send, or modify data. The endpoint serves as a defined location within the service architecture where requests for specific functionalities can be made. By utilizing these endpoints, developers can integrate and extend the capabilities of the Avaloq platform, creating customized solutions tailored to the needs of users or the organization.

In contrast to stored data locations, user interfaces, or programming tools, which serve different purposes in the tech ecosystem, an API endpoint specifically denotes a retrievable and usable point of access via a defined URL that is closely tied to the back-end functionality of the Avaloq environment. This critical distinction underscores its role in software integration and application development within the Avaloq ICE framework.
