Papaya + Open API

Papaya is open. With Open API you can wire orders, menus, payments and sales to anything else you run — over a REST API, real-time webhooks and MCP access, or no-code through the tools your team already uses. If Papaya captures it, Open API can move it.

How it works

Three steps from disconnected to in sync.

No middleware to host, no CSV exports. Authorize once and Papaya does the matching, then keeps both sides current on its own.

01

Connect Open API

Open Integrations in Papaya, choose Open API, and generate a key. Whether it's the raw API or a no-code platform, you're authenticated in a couple of minutes.

02

Pick your triggers

Subscribe to the events that matter — a new order, a closed bill, a menu change, a payout — and choose what Open API should do when they fire.

03

Ship the workflow

Open API runs it from then on: push data to a warehouse, sync a spreadsheet, ping a channel, drive an agent — no polling, no glue code to babysit.

What you get

One source of truth for every channel.

Every order, menu change, payment and shift in Papaya is available to Open API — as an API call, a webhook, or an MCP tool an agent can use. Build the workflow your business needs instead of waiting for it to ship.

  • Full REST API — read and write orders, menus, inventory, payments and more.
  • Real-time webhooks — push events to Open API the instant they happen — no polling.
  • MCP access — expose Papaya to AI agents as tools they can actually call.
  • No-code friendly — wire it up in Open API without writing a line, or drop to the API when you need to.

An order, delivered to Open API in seconds.

The moment a bill closes, Papaya fires the event to Open API with the full payload — so your workflow runs on real-time data, not a nightly export.

Open API questions

Good to know.

Everything teams ask before they wire up Open API with Papaya.

Open API is a way to connect Papaya to other software programmatically — through its REST API, real-time webhooks and MCP access, or a no-code automation tool. It lets you move orders, menus, payments and sales wherever your business needs them.
Not necessarily. Open API works no-code for common automations, and drops down to a documented REST API and webhooks when you want full control — so a technical team can build anything Papaya's own product does.
The Open API connection is available on Papaya's Growth and Scale plans. See pricing for the full breakdown, or talk to sales about multi-outlet rollouts.
Yes. Papaya pushes webhooks the moment an event happens — a new order, a closed bill, a menu change — so Open API acts on live data instead of polling for it.
MCP access exposes Papaya as typed tools an AI agent can call — read orders and sales, look things up, take actions — so Open API can drive genuinely useful automation, not just dashboards.
