System and method for universal menu integration interface

Abstract:

Systems and methods for universal menu integration. A digital key is issued to a vendor to access an interface. An uploaded menu is received from the vendor. The uploaded menu is in a universal format based on pre-determined criteria. The menu may be received from the vendor via HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The uploaded menu may be submitted in a format different from the universal format and then subsequently translated into the universal format. The uploaded menu is posted for receiving online delivery orders. An online delivery order is received from a user device. Last, the online delivery order is transmitted to the vendor. The interface may be an application programming interface (API) utilizing an API library including post, get, and patch functions, as well as out of stock and item availability fields. The system may be configured to receive menu updates after posting the uploaded menu.
