My boss has asked me what the easiest way would be to link data from his own mobile app to their website. In the mobile app there is a directory list of doctors which is displayed to mobile app users and we basically want that the same list with up-to-date information is displayed on the website as well. At the moment I do not have any detailed information to which kind of database the app is connected with, but I will find out soon. BTW, I am not a mobile app developer or coder, but I just want to know what´s the common way to implement a “app-to-website linking”. My boss already asked a programmer and he recommended to create a “webhook” for this.

However, I am not sure if a webhook is necessary, because I think most developers use REST-APIs for such tasks which are widely used and compatible with various databases.

I know the information provided is not sufficient to give any detail answers to my question, but I will try to find out more…

Thanks in advance,

Pat
