DEVELOPER API

Developer API

Developer-oriented documentation to integrate LapsoWork with ERPs, accounting firms, dashboards or any internal system. Token authentication, JSON responses and endpoints covering employees, time tracking, absences, clients, work centres and documents.

AUTHORISATION TO USE THE API

Authentication by api-key

To consume the LapsoWork API the developer needs an api-key (access token) provided by the account administrator. From the LapsoWork panel, in the API Management module, the administrator generates the key and sends it to the technical team in charge of the integration.

  • Unique token per account, revocable and regenerable at any time.
  • Send the token as a ?token=... parameter or HTTP header.
  • JSON responses, ready to integrate with ERPs, BI or accounting firms.

Base URL pattern 

GET http://url-mi-lapsowork/api/v1/{endpoint}/
  ?token=MI_TOKEN
  &start=2026-01-01
  &end=2026-01-31

Example — list of active employees 

curl "http://url-mi-lapsowork/api/v1/get-empleados-activos/\

Each integration uses its own token, revocable from the panel. No exposure of user credentials.

Frequently asked questions about the API

Everything technical teams usually ask before integrating.

How do I obtain my API access token?
The LapsoWork account administrator accesses the API management module within the panel, generates an api-key (token) and hands it over to the developer. Each token is unique, revocable and can be regenerated at any time from the same screen.
In what format are responses returned?
All API responses are returned in JSON format with UTF-8 encoding, ready to integrate with any language (PHP, Node.js, Python, Java, .NET, etc.) or BI tool.
What date format should I use in the parameters?
The start and end parameters follow the ISO format YYYY-MM-DD (for example 2026-01-31). This guarantees compatibility with search engines, ETL scripts and BI tools.
Do I need my own environment to use the API?
Yes. The base URL points to your installation (http://url-mi-lapsowork/api/v1/...). Each client has its own domain and token, which isolates the data from the rest of the accounts.
Can I integrate LapsoWork with my ERP, accounting firm or BI?
Yes. The endpoints cover the usual resources demanded by ERPs and accounting firms (employees, time tracking, absences, hours, documents). If your integration requires specific support, contact our technical team.
