Swipeguide

SwipeGuide was a frontline digital work-instruction platform for manufacturing that has since been acquired by L2L (formerly Leading2Lean); the swipeguide.com domain now 301-redirects to l2l.com. L2L operates a Connected Workforce / Connected Manufacturing Operations platform (the L2L Dispatch Smart Manufacturing Platform) spanning maintenance, production monitoring, quality, skills, and digital work instructions on the shop floor. It exposes the L2L Dispatch REST API (v1.0) for reading and writing shop-floor data — sites, areas, lines, machines, dispatches, pitches, work orders, kaizen and more — authenticated with an API key (query auth, L2LAUTH header, or POST body) plus optional HMAC-SHA512 request signing, returning JSON (default) or XML.

Swipeguide publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Manufacturing, Work Instructions, Frontline, and Shop Floor.

Swipeguide’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, signup flow, changelog, and 11 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/swipeguide: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
