TripActions API
Navan exposes real REST APIs: a TMC travel-data API for bookings and PNR data, plus expense and card endpoints with OAuth 2.0, webhooks, and a sandbox. Docs live in the help center, and some features need support-minted credentials, so access is admin-gated, not self-serve.
Frequently asked questions
TripActions scores D on the API Report Card. Navan exposes real REST APIs: a TMC travel-data API for bookings and PNR data, plus expense and card endpoints with OAuth 2.0, webhooks, and a sandbox. Docs live in the help center, and some features need support-minted credentials, so access is admin-gated, not self-serve.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.

Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
