RealFaviconGenerator offers several API to cover different areas:
Plugin or CMS developer? Integrate RealFaviconGenerator to your workflow. The API comes in two flavors: the interactive and the non-interactive API.
This API requires the end user to be in front of her screen. This is the API for the "CMS integration" scenario. For example, take the Favicon by RealFaviconGenerator for WordPress plugin:
Step 1: In the WP dashboard, the blog admin starts a favicon creation | Step 2: The admin is redirected to RealFaviconGenerator | Step 3: The admin is redirected to her WP dashboard and the favicon is installed by the plugin |

This API does not require any human action. It is designed to be used in automated scenarios. Basically, you send a POST request to RealFaviconGenerator and you receive the generated favicon a second later.
For example, the RealFaviconGenerator Node.js plugin makes use of this API. It is used by the RealFaviconGenerator Grunt plugin.
Read the non-interactive API documentation.
