Documentation
The specification of the current Veloconnect version is available online here.
The documentation refers specifically to the XML schema reference for the XML schemas to be explained.
Note:
It is technically possible to implement Veloconnect independently using the documentation - however, experience shows that this is often time-consuming and error-prone.
We therefore recommend working with experienced integration partners who can ensure a stable and future-proof implementation.
