Does anyone know if this is possible? If so, where can I get documentation that is actually useful on creating these custom APIs for Dynamics GP?

What is the data being imported, cards data or transactions? what cards or transactions?
Are you sure there is not already an API?

Thanks David,
It should be real time. The intention is to have an API created to feed information to a web portal so GP data can be displayed there. A second API is also needed to integrate the data populated on the website forms.
You need to go thought eConnect documentation, you can easily consume eConnect API and also extend them with custom code.
Install eConnect, documentation will be install with it.

The big question is how do you want to be able to call the API.
Should it be automated, should it be manual started?
Does it need to be real time or can it be polled on a regular basis?
Can it work by reading a comma or tab delimited file for the data or does it need to be passed by parameters.
There are many ways to integrate with GP from Dexterity code to Visual Studio Tools code to eConnect (where you can create custom nodes if you want).
GP Power Tools can be used to import data from text files or clipboard from Excel and it can also create custom Service Based Architecture (SBA) calls.
You really need to provide more information on what you are trying to do. The big picture will help shape specifics of the best methods to use.
Kind regards
David
I believe you can use something like Visual Studio tools for Dynamics GP addin using C# or it is possible to use the Dexterity .NET Interop to call .NET code from a Dexterity script.
.........got the above from a similar question asked in these forums......
Otherwise, maybe Service Based Architecture (SBA)?
Thanks
