Propel Software (Propel PLM)

Propel Software is an AI-powered product data platform for manufacturers and product companies, unifying Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Quality Management (QMS), and Product Information Management (PIM) on a single system of record built natively on the Salesforce Platform. Propel exposes a resource-based REST API (Salesforce Apex REST) for the core PLM objects — Items, Bills of Material, Changes/ECOs, and Attachments — plus a bulk Import API and a read-oriented PIM API for syndicating product, variant, category, channel, and digital-asset data to commerce and marketing channels. All API access is authenticated with Salesforce OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens and executes within the requesting user's permission scope. Propel is backed by Norwest Venture Partners.

Propel Software (Propel PLM) publishes 15 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Assembly API, assets API, Attachment API, and 12 more. Tagged areas include Company, Product Lifecycle Management, PLM, Quality Management, and QMS.

The Propel Software (Propel PLM) catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Propel Software (Propel PLM)’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, authentication, engineering blog, support, pricing, and 26 more developer resources.
