![[Customer Story] Why TestDome Considers FastSpring a Real Partner](https://fastspring.com/wp-content/themes/fastspring-bamboo/images/promotional/2023/FastSpring-TestDome-blog-thumbnail.jpg)
At FastSpring, we’re always striving to provide our users with the best tools to enhance their FastSpring experience. One of the features that has been quietly revolutionizing the way our users interact with Store Builder Library (our JavaScript library), our APIs, and our webhooks is Recipe Docs. If you haven’t had a chance to explore it yet, let me show you why this feature is so powerful and why it’s quickly becoming a favorite among our users.
What Are Recipe Docs?
Recipe Docs are like your personal cookbook for integrating FastSpring into your business. Whether it be on your website or to backend systems, our Recipe Docs guide you through the steps to build out experiences that are tailored to your specific business use case. Each recipe cuts right to the heart of implementation without the need for any extra storylines like you’ll find in recipes across the web. The recipes include detailed and specific instructions and “ingredients” (e.g., sample code) that you can use to replicate the process in your own environment, making integration easy and quick.
Why Recipe Docs Are a Game-Changer
Not every user has a team of technical experts on staff ready to tackle complex implementations. That’s where our Recipe Docs come in. These step-by-step guides help you navigate the process of integrating FastSpring’s features without needing to rely on back-and-forth with our support team. Recipes empower you to take charge of your implementation by providing clear directions that demystify the process.
Some of the powerful capabilities you can unlock through Recipe Docs include:
- Capture Order Data from FastSpring Checkout: Allow for real-time access to transaction details for further processing or integration with your other systems.
- Preferred Payment Methods: Customize your checkout to offer the payment options that work best for your customers, boosting conversion rates.
- Encrypt the Session Object: Ensure secure, complaint handling of user data to protect user privacy.
What’s Available Now?
Currently, FastSpring offers six detailed recipes, covering both API and SBL integration methods. Whether you’re a seasoned developer or just getting started, these recipes provide an excellent starting point for integrating key features into your existing workflow.
Some examples include:
- Seamlessly adding new payment methods to improve the customer experience.
- Authenticate accounts via account ID to ensure proper access to your products.
- Using subscription management tools to improve customer retention.
The great part? You can easily assess whether FastSpring’s integration options align with your business goals before diving into a full implementation.
Built for Your Success
One of the standout benefits of Recipe Docs is the ability to self-evaluate FastSpring’s integration capabilities. By following these recipes, users can independently test and explore what’s possible with the FastSpring platform — saving time and avoiding potential roadblocks.
