# Introduction

**Keeta** provides a comprehensive suite of APIs designed to **enhance conversion rates**, **optimize operational efficiency**, and **deliver business insights**. This document serves as your roadmap to seamlessly integrate with Keeta's ecosystem. Please read this guide thoroughly to ensure a smooth integration process and avoid potential delays.

## Integration Process Overview

Below is a high-level summary of the integration workflow. Each step is critical to ensure successful collaboration and system compatibility.

### **Step 1: Developer Signup**

To initiate API integration, complete the [Developer Signup](https://developers.mykeeta.com/#/signup) form on Keeta developer website. Our team will review your application and contact you via email within **5 business days** to confirm next steps.

### **Step 2: NDA Signing**

Before proceeding, a **Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)** must be signed between your organization and Keeta to protect confidential information.

### **Step 3: Material Preparation**

Upon NDA execution, our team will provide essential development materials, including:

- **Developer Account**
- **Test Store Account**


### **Step 4: Development**

Upon reviewing the API documentation, please promptly coordinate with the Keeta integration team to confirm your implementation scope (Basic/Order/Product/Store APIs). All development must strictly adhere to Keeta's official API specifications.

The following guidance documents require thorough review (**recommended reading sequence**):

| Article | Summary |
|  --- | --- |
| [Development Resources](/apis/standard/docs/developresource) | This documentation outlines all development materials and their usage specifications. |
| [API Request Protocol](/apis/standard/docs/apirequest) | Instructions for making properly formatted API requests to Keeta's platform. |
| [Webhook](/apis/standard/docs/webhook) | Detailed guidance on setting up Webhooks to receive push notifications from Keeta. |
| [Merchant Self-Authorization Integration Guide](/apis/standard/docs/selfauthor) | Documentation for implementing the standardized merchant authorization flow that:  - Eliminates need for manual processing by Keeta Team  - Ensures secure and efficient authorization  - Follows OAuth 2.0 best practices |
| [Authorization Guide](/apis/standard/docs/author) | This documentation provides comprehensive guidance for implementing OAuth 2.0 authentication flows, including token acquisition, refresh mechanisms. |
| [Basic API Integration Guide](/apis/standard/docs/basicintegrationguide) | Keeta validates the legitimacy and security of all developer requests. This guide explains how to successfully pass these security checks. |
| [Order API Integration Guide](/apis/standard/docs/orderintegrationguide) | The Order API specification details the integration process for managing order lifecycles - from creation to fulfillment - including real-time status updates and cancellation protocols. |
| [Store API Integration Guide](/apis/standard/docs/storeintegrationguide) | This guide outlines the standardized methods for synchronizing store operational data, including location details, business hours, and availability status synchronization. |
| [Menu API Integration Guide](/apis/standard/docs/menuintegrationguide) | This guide provides comprehensive reference for product synchronization, covering menu data sync and status updates through dedicated endpoints. |


### **Step 5: System Integration Testing (SIT)**

After completing development, conduct **SIT Self-Testing** to validate functionality. Once your tests pass, Keeta will schedule an **SIT Review Meeting** to formally verify compliance.

### **Step 6: Brand Registration**

Post-SIT approval, our **Onboarding Team** will guide you through brand registration. Follow the dedicated **Onboarding Guide** for detailed instructions.

### **Step 7: User Acceptance Testing (UAT)**

Keeta conducts **mandatory UAT for each brand** to validate end-to-end functionality in **production environments**, simulating real-world business scenarios. **Brands that fail UAT will not be permitted to launch on Keeta.**

Our team will coordinate with you to verify menu data synchronization, order flows, and system stability.

### Next Steps

Upon successful completion of all stages, your integration will be **officially launched**. For further assistance, consult our technical documentation or contact your Keeta integration manager.
