Getting started with Locally's "Data Sharing" API
Data Sharing is Locally's reporting platform. Reports are generated daily or weekly (based on the report-type) and are accessible via one of the following methods:
- A Simple REST API (documented here)
- S/FTP Server
- Google Cloud Storage Bucket
Hundreds of different data elements can be shared: product catalog, store quantity on hand, platform consumer behavior data, locations, opportunity, and more.
Data Sharing services are available to Locally's clients as an add-on to their service.
