Continuous Development (Lab-Type) of "Chobiit for kintone," a Service for External Data Integration and Sharing with kintone

Challenge
While kintone is powerful for improving efficiency within a company, it does not offer a standard way to share information with people outside the organization, such as business partners or part-time staff. As a result, companies had to rely on analog communication methods like email, fax, and phone calls, which led to scattered information and duplicate data management.
- Every time kintone information needed to be shared externally, it had to be manually transcribed and communicated
- Inquiries and applications from outside parties had to be received through a separate form and then manually re-entered into kintone
- Controlling the scope of sharing and ensuring security depended heavily on individual staff members
Solution & Team
"Chobiit for kintone" is an external integration service that seamlessly connects the "inside" and "outside" of kintone, and we continue to develop and expand it under a lab-type team structure. It enables viewing, registering, editing, and deleting records from outside kintone, achieving two-way information sharing with external parties.
- Two sharing modes: a "user-authenticated" mode where users linked to a kintone account log in to operate the service, and a "public" mode that anyone can view and register to without logging in.
- Web form feature: can be used as an inquiry or survey form, with submitted content automatically registered as a record in the kintone app.
- Operational support features: list display, comments, email notifications, automatic GPS data capture, iframe output, thank-you page settings, and more.
- Security: ISO 27001 certified, with regular vulnerability assessments.
The service runs on a cloud infrastructure on AWS, combining a Java backend with a JavaScript/React frontend.
