##Choosing the right software tool##
Searching for a new software tool can easily become a complex job with so many options available out there. So how can you make a good choice from the start?

Check out the [Getting Started playlist](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIb97YlZfS8&list=PLCtUToVtkiUuuQjpVucoYXrJqEYLFXaI-&ab_channel=PROCESIO) to find out if PROCESIO is the right tool for you. Some of the questions we're addressing are: what can you achieve with PROCESIO? What features are most important to know about in the first place?

##API Key Authentication has arrived##
You can now use an API key to access the PROCESIO API and perform a wide range of authenticated operations. You can run, add, update, and delete processes, or access process-related resources directly through the API.

Have a look at the documentation to see how it works.

##PROCESIO SDK##
The PROCESIO SDK is now available! The SDK makes it easier to interact with the PROCESIO API from your application. Depending on the technology you are using we provide two ways for accessing your processes:

- PROCESIO SDK built with TypeScript
- PROCESIO SDK built with C#

- Enrich data about new leads with information from different sources
- Integrate data from reviews and rewards apps to automatically provide reward points or product samples for your customers
- Upsell/ cross-sell new products or services from a database to certain contacts based on pre-defined business rules via email or SMS; raise support tickets in platforms such as Jira when information like contact details is missing
