<aside> ⚠️ Note: This documentation is for the first version of our API which is now deprecated. You should probably be looking at the docs for our new API instead, which you can find here.

If you’d like to use LACRM’s API to integrate another program, you’ll need two pieces of information, your user code and API key. The user code is a unique code that we use to identify your account, while the API key acts as a password when you connect to the API.

Please note: anyone who knows your user code and API key can access your account through the API. If you share these details with anyone, they will be able to access your CRM.

You can find both your user code and API key on the Programmer API page. Simply mouse over “Settings” and select “Programmer API” in the menu.

On that page you’ll see a button that says “Enable API.” You can select that button, and then your user code will appear under the “API access” section. Your user code will be a series of numbers.

An additional section, “API Keys” will appear below that. Click on "Generate API key" to create a new API key. A pop up will appear with your API key -- this will be the only time you see your API key in its entirety so copy it now.

If you’d like to limit this key’s access to the CRM, you can select “Edit” and then update the permissions for that key. If you’re ever concerned that there may be unauthorized access to your CRM via the API, you can use the "Delete" link to remove the existing API key, and then generate a new one.
