Hi Ruben,
> I’m doing some research on how to integrate orders from webshops built with your webshop CMS in our ERP system, Microsoft Dynamics NAV. In order of that I hope to get some questions answered. Hopefully you’re able to answer them or to forward this message to someone who can.

Tab-separated value/Excel exports are available by default.
> 2. How easily would the webshops be able to adapt to a specific EDI format?
Would be a Simple Matter Of Programming. Just depends on the format required. Data is stored natively in a database table (generally MySQL or PostgreSQL, but ultimately shop-specific), so exports can be written to transform from the native table format to whatever is required.
> 3. Do they support API integration?
You’d need to write adapters for specific APIs; we have written many API adapters depending on the need.
> a. Do you offer API clients, libraries or SDK’s to help with the integration?
The code is pretty much what there is; depending on the type of integration you’re looking for there are some open-source extensions/tools available, plus a large body of work/experience that we’ve done already.
> 4. What programming language or/and framework are their back-end written in?
Primarily written in Perl.
