TraceLink

TraceLink, Inc. is a Massachusetts-based supply chain digitalization company for the life sciences and healthcare industries, best known for pharmaceutical serialization and track-and-trace compliance (US DSCSA, EU FMD, and roughly two dozen national regimes) delivered on its multienterprise OPUS network platform. TraceLink exposes several distinct integration surfaces rather than one REST API: a set of publicly served SOAP/WSDL services on api.tracelink.com (Serialized Operations Manager, Product Track, Serial Number Exchange), a synchronous REST API for Smart Event Manager, an event-driven OPUS Platform API where every call is a POST to a single /api/events endpoint carrying a header/payload envelope keyed by a fully qualified eventName, a GraphQL endpoint at /api/graphql used by the Agile Process Teams app, and asynchronous B2B message exchange over AS2, SFTP, and HTTP POST using EPCIS, EDI ANSI X12, SAP IDoc, and TraceLink XML canonical documents. Its published API guides, canonical JSON Schemas, and code samples are the machine-readable surface catalogued here.

TraceLink publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Supply Chain, Pharmaceuticals, Life Sciences, and Serialization.

The TraceLink catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

TraceLink’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, code examples, and 27 more developer resources.
