Getting started with the Timefold Platform

Look at our documentation pages at https://docs.timefold.ai/ to learn about the different models Timefold offers.

Our Solutions team will happily set up a tenant on the Timefold Platform for you, as well as give you access to the models you want to try. Submit the form at https://timefold.ai/contact and we’ll get back to you.

Using the platform’s UI you can complete test runs with demo data. This gives you insight into what tools the platform offers to visualize the solving process as well as the planning solutions. You can download the demo data sets from one of those runs, and then further tweak the .json file for your needs. In the platform’s New Run dialog you can upload that .json file to solve your problem.

You can easily invite your coworkers to your tenant, so they can also explore the platform and review your planning solutions.

Tip: Unless your team needs administration access, add them as users.

To integrate the planning solutions into your systems, you need API access. Click on the drop-down next to your username, select API keys, and copy the default API key or generate a new one. With this API key, you can access the API for the models on your tenant. We recommended you follow the getting started guides specific for the model you’re using to learn about the main API endpoints of the model.

On the platform itself you can also dive into the full API specifications and test the methods via an interactive interface.

As a last step, you can set up one or more webhooks to receive real-time notifications when your planning problems are solved.

At any stage during your discovery of the platform, you can ask our team for help and advice. We’re happy to provide you with the expertise to help solve your planning problem.

The platform includes a changelog where you can learn about new versions of the platform and the models it runs.

See Timefold Platform Changelog for recent updates to the platform.
