Integration
Konect Third Party Application Integration

Access API documentation
Adobe Document Generation API
Uses AWS to generate a word template, then send the data to Adobe’s cloud service handing back a PDF file. Adobe simply replaces the “fill in the template” step while Konect stays the data source.
Contact sales@globalgbm.com for further details and pricing.
Konect Dataset – Excel Workbook Generation
Uses AWS to pull every row of a dataset (e.g. all defects, or all assets) via Konect’s features API in bulk, flatten each record’s fields into a row, and write the whole set into a single Excel workbook (one sheet, one row per record). Result is a spreadsheet suited to sorting, filtering, and bulk analysis rather than a per-record photo-and-map document.
Contact sales@globalgbm.com for further details and pricing.
