)
Instant Data Processing (IDP) Data Supplier API is a TecDoc data delivery channel that enables parts manufacturers to transfer and update product data directly in TecDoc through a standardised interface. With real-time data exchange and immediate availability in the TecDoc Catalogue and TecDoc Web Service, IDP accelerates updates and ensures customers always have access to the latest and most accurate product information.
What you get
Keeping product data up to date is a major challenge for parts manufacturers. This often requires manual effort, specialist expertise, and fixed delivery schedules that can delay product visibility.
The Instant Data Processing (IDP) Data Supplier API is a TecDoc data delivery channel that enables real-time validation, publishing, and distribution of product data. Through a standardised interface, suppliers can update and publish data directly to TecDoc, making it immediately available in the TecDoc Catalogue and TecDoc Web Service.
Instead of waiting for weekly or monthly delivery cycles, updates are available within seconds. This helps parts manufacturers to streamline processes, keep information current, and respond faster to market demands. IDP is designed for customers who use their own PIM or ERP systems to manage, validate, and publish product data.
If you need a PIM solution, you can explore TecDoc ONE, an alternative TecDoc data delivery channel.

Instant Data Processing (IDP) enables parts manufacturers to publish product data updates in real time.
It supports granular updates for individual articles, linkages, and assets, making day-to-day data management more flexible and efficient.
With immediate validation against TecDoc rules and requirements, suppliers can quickly identify issues, improve data accuracy, and maintain high-quality data.
The IDP API connects parts manufacturer environments directly with TecDoc, enabling seamless integration with existing PIM, ERP, and third-party systems without disrupting established workflows.
Other capabilities include:
• Automated validation and publishing
• Real-time processing and distribution
• Direct integration with existing systems
• No need for additional local software installations
• Simplified workflows and improved operational efficiency
• Instant availability across catalogues, online shops, and data packages
By enabling parts manufacturers to work within their existing data management environments, IDP accelerates updates, reduces manual effort, and streamlines the management of product data on a global scale.

The Instant Data Processing (IDP) API connects parts manufacturer systems directly to TecDoc's real-time data processing infrastructure, enabling faster and more efficient product data updates.
Connect your systems: Parts manufacturers connect to TecDoc through their existing PIM, ERP, or third-party systems using the IDP API.
Submit only changes: Instead of exporting and delivering complete datasets, parts manufacturers send only the records that have been added, updated, or removed.
Validate and process data instantly: Incoming data is immediately validated against TecDoc rules and requirements.
Publish validated data: Once validated, the data is processed and made available in the TecDoc Web Service and TecDoc Catalogue in near real time.
Keep data packages up to date: TecDoc Data Packages are generated from weekly snapshots of the IDP database, ensuring customers receive the latest available product information.
IDP is an API-based alternative to file-based delivery processes. Rather than creating and exporting data in a specific delivery format, manufacturers can manage and publish content directly from their existing systems.

Instant Data Processing helps parts manufacturers improve efficiency and data quality through:
Real-time updates: Publish product data in seconds.
Up-to-date information: Keep data current at every point of sale.
Less manual effort: Update only changed records.
Instant validation: Detect and fix data issues quickly.
Seamless integration: Connect via API with existing systems.
Scalable processes: Simplify global data management.
Competitive advantage: Speed up publishing to stay ahead in the aftermarket.
"We needed a faster, more efficient way to transfer our product data to the TecDoc Catalogue. With IDP technology, data transfer has become an unattended process. We can schedule it as a job or use it in interactive mode to update attributes of a single published article. Either way, the article is updated in real time in the web catalogue.“
