I am trying to build a java application which will fetch the data of zkteco biometric.

Does zkteco have a built-in API ?

If not, how can I connect to zkteco to a java app?

Zkteco biometric offers two sector of the products.

  • ZkTeco Attendance and AccessControl Systems
  • ZkTeco Fingerprint Scanners

They can be integrated with the desktop/web based application over USB or TCP/IP. It is an intranet application. The SDK for the integration can be downloaded from Biometric SDK Download Center.They can also be integrated with the web based application over HTTP. It is an internet application. The API is available Biometric Attendance Web API and Web API for Fingerprint Scanner. All the devices do not support the HTTP communication. So, to make sure if your device supports the HTTP communication, you may need to get your device verified at ZkTeco Device Verification for Web API
