Integrating

As an integrator, use the Watson Care Manager REST APIs to integrate third-party applications with Watson Care Manager so that data can be shared between the applications. For security and user authentication purposes, if an identity provider external to IBM stores your organization's user accounts, you can request that Watson Care Manager integrate with that identity provider.

About this task

You can integrate Watson Care Manager with other IBM systems, or third-party applications, such as an electronic medical record (EMR) application through REST APIs. When Watson Care Manager is integrated with other applications, Watson Care Manager can receive data from those applications through APIs. For example, Watson Care Manager can receive client data that is captured in another application so that the latest client information is available in all applications.

Note: The option to integrate Watson Care Manager with your organization's identity provider optionally involves the use of REST APIs. Third-party identity provider integration relates to the authentication of users when they access Watson Care Manager.
