Build Powerful Integrations with the Freezerworks API
Connect lab systems, automate workflows, and extend Freezerworks 2 with our RESTful API.
Keep your systems in sync, reduce manual work, and improve data quality with a secure web API that lets systems push and pull data to Freezerworks.
Why Integrate with Freezerworks 2?
Connect Your Lab Tools
Tie Freezerworks into ELNs, clinical systems, EHRs, ERPs, and more to keep key data aligned across systems.
Cut Double Entry
Enter data once and share it, instead of copying spreadsheets from system to system.
Automate Routine Work
Trigger sample updates, shipments, and reports without clicking through multiple screens.
Stay Audit-Ready
Move data into BI and reporting tools while keeping Freezerworks as your system of record.
Whether you need to sync external systems, automate repetitive tasks, or migrate bulk data, the Freezerworks API has you covered.
What You Can Do with the API
⇅
Sync with other systems
Connect Freezerworks to the software your organization already relies on.
✓ Send sample and shipment data to ERP or accounting tools for billing and inventory.
✓ Pull subject or study information from clinical systems so your samples always link back to the right records.
✓ Post alerts when key sample events occur (received, shipped, used).
⚙️
Automate lab workflows
Use the API to reduce manual steps and turn repetitive tasks into automated processes.
✓ Register, update, and retire samples and aliquots automatically.
✓ Trigger check‑in, check‑out, pooling, sub‑aliquoting, shipping, and label printing from other systems.
✓ Schedule regular imports and exports so Freezerworks and your other tools stay in sync overnight or on your schedule.
⬇️
Move and Manage Data at Scale
Handle large inventories and complex data operations without relying on spreadsheets.
✓ Search and filter across big datasets using API queries instead of manual exports.
✓ Import data with validation rules so bad records are caught before they hit production.
✓ Export samples, test results, and audit trails to your BI tools for analytics and compliance reporting.
For The IT Team and Developers
REST API: Standard HTTP endpoints for creating, reading, updating, and deleting data.
Interactive docs: Try requests from the browser, see required fields, and view example responses.
Secure authentication: Short-lived access tokens and support for your existing directory services (e.g., LDAP/LDAPS).
Sandbox environments: Separate test systems available for validation and development.
Code examples: Starter snippets in popular languages to speed up first integrations.
A Modern, Proven Foundation
Freezerworks 2 replaces its legacy backend with PostgreSQL and Kotlin, giving you an API built on a modern, widely trusted stack.
🔬
Instrument Data Capture
Connect instruments like flatbed barcode scanners so tube or plate scans flow directly into Freezerworks, speeding up QC and reducing transcription errors.
