Integrating with BlueCherry ERP

Hello Domo Community,I am reaching out to see if any fellow Domo users have experience integrating with CGS's BlueCherry platform. Specifically, I'm interested in understanding:

  1. Successful Integration Stories: Have you successfully integrated Domo with BlueCherry? If so, could you share how you approached the integration?
  2. Challenges Encountered: What challenges did you face during the integration process? How did you overcome them?
  3. Cost of Endpoint Access: What kind of costs were associated with accessing BlueCherry's API endpoints? Were there any unexpected expenses? Did BlueCherry allow for all the datasets you needed to be pulled?

Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated as we consider this integration to optimize our supply chain operations. Thank you in advance for your help!

    I don't have any experience myself connecting to BlueCherry ERP. But I would assume you could connect using any of the normal methods we connect with other systems such as via an API:

    • Obtain API Documentation: Get the API documentation from BlueCherry ERP to understand the available endpoints, authentication methods, and data formats.
    • Authentication: Set up authentication, which could involve API keys, OAuth tokens, or other methods.
    • Make API Requests: Use Python libraries such as requests to interact with the API.

    Assuming BlueCherry ERP provides a Restful API and uses token based authentication, you could try connecting with Python using something like:

    import requests


    # Replace these with your actual API endpoint and credentials
    api_endpoint = 'https://api.bluecherry.com/v1/data'
    api_key = 'your_api_key_here' # or token, depending on the authentication method

    # Headers typically include authorization and content-type

    headers = {
    'Authorization': f'Bearer {api_key}', # Adjust based on authentication method
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    }


    def fetch_data_from_bluecherry(endpoint):
    try:
    response = requests.get(endpoint, headers=headers)
    response.raise_for_status() # Raise an error for bad responses (4xx and 5xx)
    data = response.json() # Assuming the API returns JSON
    return data
    except requests.exceptions.HTTPError as http_err:
    print(f'HTTP error occurred: {http_err}')
    except Exception as err:
    print(f'Other error occurred: {err}')


    # Example usage
    data = fetch_data_from_bluecherry(api_endpoint)
    print(data)
