What is the API?


API (Application Programming Interface) allows for integrating third party software with Ontraport so that users can do more with their accounts and share data across platforms.

Whether you’re a developer who would like to create your own integrations with Ontraport or a user who would like to use webhooks to add additional functionality to your automation, you can use Ontraport’s API to accomplish your goals.

Using the API

You can perform the same actions that are available in Ontraport through the API, such as adding contacts, changing contacts and adding fields. You can also use webhooks to automate actions through the API that may be a little bit more tricky to perform manually or through automation maps, such as creating a new deal every time an interest form is filled out.

API endpoints are the locations where APIs can reach the resources they need to perform the action you want to take. Ontraport provides the following endpoints to our users:

  • Automations
  • Contacts
  • Credit Cards
  • Forms
  • Messages
  • Pages
  • Offers
  • Products
  • Rules
  • Transactions
  • Tasks

Webhooks

Webhooks are a way to send information from Ontraport to a third party application, script, or website. They essentially allow your online accounts and integrated platforms to “speak” to each other.
