Abstract
Techniques and arrangements for facilitating synchronizing data structures between devices using application programming interfaces (APIs) are described. In some examples, two devices may try to synchronize a data structure between one another by sending and receiving data for the data structure. However, each device may include hardware and/or software that is different than, and not compatible with, the other device. As such, the application describes a service that provides a first device an API for sending the service information for a transaction. The service uses the information to create a data structure for the transaction, and then sends the data structure to a second device. The second device can receive data structure from the service. After receiving the data structure, the service can process the transaction.
