Q: API on the roadmap... any idea when?
Hey there, I see API is on the roadmap.. any idea when that will be available? Also when integrating into a website is that a live integration via iFrame?
Thank you.

Oct 19, 2024A: Hello!
We are currently working on an API - We are hoping to launch it within the next 3-6 months. Is there any use case in particular you are interested in? We're currently focused on releasing a chart generation API along with API triggers.
To answer your second question - Yes, integrating an embedded chart into your own webpages is done through an iFrame. If you sign up for a free account and make a chart, you can view a sample iFrame tag from the Share Dialog.
Hope this answers your questions and thanks for checking out InstaCharts!

bioniczackPLUSHello Bart. Thank you for getting back to me. The use case I was thinking of was making custom dashboards using InstaCharts, that could update the data either with a manual refresh / button click or automatically as data changes.
Ok Gotcha! We will be sure to include functionality for this in our API release.
