# Direct API Integration

The Direct API Integration allows you to connect directly with Coda’s payment systems from your own platform, without redirecting users to the Hosted Payment Page. This option gives you full control over the checkout experience across web and mobile, but requires more development effort compared to using our Hosted Payment Page.

Use this section if you want maximum flexibility and are ready to manage integration, testing, and maintenance on your side.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.coda.co/codapay/direct-api-integration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
