Integration for Beginners: The Complete Learning Guide
Welcome to the Integrator Learning Guide.
This space helps new developers and teams understand how systems talk to each other, how data moves, and how to build reliable workflows using the DCKAP Integrator. Each topic below works like a standalone Guide that you can read and follow at your own pace.
Guide 1: Introduction to Data Formats
This guide teaches the basics of how systems communicate. Before building any workflow, it is important to understand how data flows and how APIs enable two applications to work together.

JSON is a lightweight, modern format used widely in web and mobile applications.
XML is a structured, tag-based format commonly used in ERPs and older systems.
