problem statement:

“A third party wishes to integrate our data into their system by providing a URL for us to push the data onto.”

my proposed solution:

“I suggested to the manager that we create a schedule to check when data is ready. Upon readiness, we will call our API, which will then call their URL with a unique key from the data column (e.g., agreement ID). They will verify it and subsequently call our API with that ID to facilitate data pushing.”

Manager’s solution and your doubts regarding it:

“The manager questions why we need to create an API and suggests directly pushing data to their URL. My concern is how to achieve this without implementing an API.”

I’m tasked with integrating our data with a third-party system, and they’ve provided a URL for us to push the data onto. I proposed a solution involving scheduling and calling our API to facilitate the data transfer, but my manager questions why we need an API and suggests directly pushing data to the URL. How can we achieve this without implementing an API? I’m looking for alternative approaches or technologies to accomplish this integration efficiently
