API, webhooks and Zapier
Anything you can do in Gaffer, your own systems can do too: the whole product sits on a documented REST API with token authentication. Outbound webhooks push 19 kinds of event to your endpoint with HMAC signatures and automatic retries, and Zapier covers the rest without code. Part of the Enterprise arrangement.
