Profisee API

profisee.com

Profisee ships many integration surfaces: a REST Gateway with per-tenant Swagger, generated per-entity services, a .NET SDK, a Power Platform connector, webhooks, and SQL views. There is no public portal though: docs live inside each customer instance, and every tenant's API shape differs.

SCORECARD

ExistenceGOODA REST Gateway with entity and record CRUD, plus generated per-entity web services, a .NET SDK, and a Power Platform connector.
AccessGOODCustomers reach the API from their own instance; setup is a per-tenant Entra ID app registration with client credentials.
CoveragePOOREndpoints are generated per entity per tenant, so the reachable surface mirrors one instance and cannot be reused generically.
AuthGOODOAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect via Entra ID, Okta, or any OpenID provider with group based access; setup needs a per tenant app registration.
Docs & DXGOODSwagger ships inside each instance's REST Gateway, backed by a .NET SDK, ADF templates, and Microsoft Learn reference docs.
StabilityMIXEDGenerated endpoints track each tenant's data model, and customers report revalidating workflows after major upgrades.

Supergood: Profisee has an API, but using it means gates, contracts, or workarounds. Ours doesn't: stable endpoints, normalized JSON, managed auth.

Tried to integrate with Profisee?
SOURCES
The Power Platform connector enforces a strict throttling limit of 100 API calls per connection per 60 seconds, constraining high-throughput integrations going through Microsoft's connector layer learn.microsoft.com ↗
Web Services Generator (WSG) produces strongly typed endpoints per-entity per-tenant, meaning every customer instance has a different API shape, integrations cannot be built generically once and reused, they must be re-derived against each customer's WSG-generated endpoints links.imagerelay.com ↗
Swagger / OpenAPI documentation is only accessible from inside a live customer instance ('Swagger page of your Profisee REST Gateway'), there is no public developer portal, public sandbox, or partner-accessible API reference for ISVs evaluating the surface qmetrix.com.au ↗
Authentication setup requires per-tenant Azure App Registration in Microsoft Entra ID with manual redirect-URI configuration, client ID / client secret generation, and Profisee-side connection configuration, a multi-step bootstrap that ISVs must walk each customer through learn.microsoft.com ↗
Customers report 'API and SQL Server tasks' as a meaningfully higher-effort area of Profisee compared to other MDM platforms they have used peerspot.com ↗
Multiple parallel integration surfaces exist (REST Gateway, WSG-generated REST/SOAP, .NET SDK, Power Platform connector, Azure Data Factory templates, SQL views) with different idioms, authentication flows, version semantics, and operational characteristics, integrators must reverse-engineer which surface fits which use case profisee.com ↗
The Power Platform connector is marked '(Preview)' in Microsoft Learn, production-grade Microsoft connector integrations carry preview-version risk including breaking changes and limited support SLAs learn.microsoft.com ↗
REST Gateway endpoint behaviors and entity payload shapes shift across Profisee major versions (e.g., 7.1 → 7.2), long-running integrations require revalidation each upgrade, and workflow regressions have been documented on version upgrades peerspot.com ↗
Historical querying and change-tracking capabilities were added incrementally to the REST Gateway in recent releases, older Profisee versions in production lack support for parameters like 'changes since timestamp', forcing full-record polling qmetrix.com.au ↗
GetRecord performance was historically slow; Profisee explicitly called out 'removing unnecessary backend processes' to speed up GetRecord in a recent release, indicating pre-fix users hit latency on basic record retrieval qmetrix.com.au ↗
For on-prem and private-cloud Profisee deployments (a meaningful share of the install base given the SaaS/PaaS/IaaS/hybrid/on-prem flexibility positioning), exposing the REST Gateway to SaaS-side integrations requires customer-side VPN/firewall/network work profisee.com ↗
The Microsoft Power Platform connector exposes only ~10 operations (entity CRUD, attribute CRUD, record CRUD, metadata get, data-quality-issue get, theme update), anything beyond this surface requires going directly to the REST Gateway, which in turn requires per-tenant Azure App Registration setup that the connector abstracts away learn.microsoft.com ↗
No publicly accessible Profisee developer sandbox or free-tier evaluation API, evaluating the surface requires becoming a Profisee partner or having an existing customer instance with REST Gateway access profisee.com ↗
Initial implementation is moderately complex and dependent on Profisee professional services, users report the services team is spread across multiple engagements and 'needed more dedicated resources' for individual customers peerspot.com ↗
Training materials in Profisee University are difficult to navigate, long video formats lack searchability, making it 'really hard to find what you need fast' g2.com ↗
Security configuration adds meaningful time to setup; some components like DBA setup are described as challenging compared to other MDM solutions peerspot.com ↗
Workflow regressions reported after version upgrades (e.g., 7.1), customers report needing to revalidate workflows on each major release peerspot.com ↗
SQL Server integration functionality is unclear in places, and the platform 'demands more effort, particularly with API and SQL Server tasks' than competitors peerspot.com ↗
System performance degrades at larger data volumes, multiple reviewers note scale-related slowness once entities cross into the multi-million-record range gartner.com ↗
Pricing is opaque (no public pricing page); subscription-based model scales with domains, users, and environments, and is described as suitable for mid-to-large enterprises but cost-prohibitive for SMBs peerspot.com ↗
Documentation gaps for advanced/custom scenarios, customers report 'occasional lack of documentation' for non-standard configurations softwareworld.co ↗
Microsoft-ecosystem-first positioning means non-Microsoft shops (pure AWS, GCP, on-prem Linux) get a lighter integration experience and fewer reference architectures learn.microsoft.com ↗
Reporting and analytics inside the platform are limited, customers typically export to Power BI or external BI tools to get satisfactory dashboards trustradius.com ↗
Customization beyond out-of-box entities and workflows requires meaningful technical depth or partner engagement getapp.com ↗
AI features (Aisey) are new (2025/2026), early adopters report capability is promising but maturity is still evolving profisee.com ↗
