Developer Documentation Hub

FastSpring’s developer tools can be used as stand-alone components or used together to offload even more jobs-to-be-done and associated maintenance of those jobs. Our suite of Developer Tools consists of 3 key components:


API References

Connect FastSpring, your site, and back office systems with reliable and fast REST APIs. Monitor calls with the API Activity log and use APIs to manage changes to accounts, products, orders, coupons, returns, subscriptions, and more.

Example Use Cases

  • Automatically sync products from tools like SFDC to FastSpring
  • Easily migrate accounts, products, and subscriptions to FastSpring
  • Retrieve account data and push to support systems like Hubspot
  • Update a FastSpring account with information from another system
  • Advertise price estimates to customers for product upgrades

Webhooks

Reduce API calls with extensive JSON-based webhooks. Reliably listen to events on FastSpring to trigger actions in your app, website, or business systems. Monitor webhook activity with helpful in-app webhook logs.

Example Use Cases

  • Collect cart abandonment information to send remarketing emails
  • Update product access when a subscription is purchased
  • Support B2B transactions with updates when a quote is created
  • Process customer-requested returns or those issued by your team
  • Collect and pass emails to marketing systems on account creation

Embedded Component Library

The Embedded Component library is our newest library in FastSpring.js. FastSpring's Embedded Payment Management Library (EPML) is a JavaScript library that you can use to embed same-page subscription payment management (adding, updating, deleting payment methods) on your website, allowing your customers to manage their subscription payment methods directly in your site instead of having to visit the FastSpring Account Management Portal.
