API Integration
Connect a third-party application — a club tool, tournament platform, companion app, or custom integration — to Stratastax via the documented REST API.
Stratastax is a platform, not a closed application. Clubs, tournament organizers, and developers building their own tools should be able to participate without forcing their users to switch platforms. An open API means the ecosystem grows beyond what Stratastax itself builds.
Journey
Section titled “Journey”Developer registers an application in the Stratastax developer portal
