First Integration

Connect your first workflow to a Sans Mercantile AI system.

Choose the right system

Review your use case and select the AI system that provides the best fit for data, industry, and compliance needs.

Prepare your data

Structure the data you will send to the API, including identifiers, metadata, and any context required for accurate results.

Configure authentication

Use your API key in the Authorization header and confirm the environment variables for your development and production environments.

Build the initial request

Start with a simple payload, validate the response, then add additional fields such as context, metadata, and callback URLs.

Monitor and adjust

Review response times, system outputs, and any warnings. Use this information to tune prompts, refine data mappings, and protect sensitive fields.

Next steps

  • Enable logging for audit and debug purposes.
  • Configure webhooks or event-driven workflows.
  • Move from test credentials to production credentials once validated.
