We are happy to announce the new v2025-01-01 (Fourier) version has been released. Most of the API remains the same, with updated endpoint paths.

As you know, our versions are named after famous numeric series. The Fourier series is renowned for breaking down complex patterns into simple, steady components. Similarly, this release reflects our commitment to clarity and dependability, ensuring our endpoints work seamlessly and reliably.

The most relevant parts are Performance endpoints and webhooks. Other additions are contract type endpoints and improvements in Ats, Attendance, Employees, Expenses, Teams, and Project Management resources.

We are happy to announce the new v2024-10-01 (Fibonacci) version has been released. This is the first versioned release of the v2 API. Most of the API remains the same, with updated endpoint paths.

As you know, our versions are named as famous numeric series. In mathematics, the Fibonacci sequence is a sequence in which each number is the sum of the two preceding ones.
The Fibonacci series has rapid growth, just like this version, which includes, among other things, the following changes:

The most relevant parts are Performance endpoints and webhooks, which are new in this version. Other additions are workplace information in EmployeeUpdates, Shift name information in ShiftManagement, as well as other improvements in Attendance, Expenses, Training, Tasks, and Project Management resources.

Don't miss out on the news it brings and read the detailed Changelog

In these last quarter, we have driven the Factorial's public API to first class. We have set the foundations for a fully stable and versioned public API. This means we have set the following changes:

Stabilizing version v2

V2 version has been in the oven for several months. Last July, we started to publish in v2 everything missing from v1. All the functionality in v1 must be now available in v2. If this is not the case, please contact us and let us know

We finally released v2 version at the beginning of September, deprecating v1 version

Versioned v2: 2024-10-01 and next

But we didn't stop here. Factorial's product teams move fast. They are constantly improving to deliver value to our clients. And the public API improves with them. Many of the new features are exposed to the public API, so our clients and developer partners can use them and bring more value to our users.

On the other hand, we know that public API consumers have their own pace. Keeping up to date with Factorial's API changes is probably not the first thing on their ToDO list.

This is why we are introducing API versioning in our v2 public API version. Every quarter, we are evolving our v2 version to new releases, without losing backwards compatibility within a year. This way, we give our API consumers enough time to adapt to new changes, while our product teams evolve fast.

Upgrading to newer versions should be must easy, just changing the paths most of the time. We will be publishing a detailed changelog, like 2024-10-01 Release Notes so clients and partners are able to easily upgrade.

Deprecating v1

Our v1 version has served us well for years, but it has several flaws and we need to move on. V1 version will keep working until April 1st, 2025. Afterward, it will be removed. Working webhooks will be automatically migrated to v2.

Since today, we have enabled webhooks to subscribe to events that take place in Factorial. You can check the webhooks API documentation here.

Right now we just have a trigger, which calls you when an employee is invited to your company.

Be sure to check this documentation since we plan to launch more webhooks in the near future!

Welcome to the developer hub and documentation for factorial! We just launched the first version of our public API.

The Factorial API is organized around REST. Our API has predictable resource-oriented URLs, accepts form-encoded request bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs.

Make sure to regularly check the changelog, as we will be continuously improving the Factorial API, always keeping in mind retro compatibility through versioning.

To start using the API head over to our Getting Started guide.
