Getting Started

Before getting started with the LionDesk API, you must create an account in the LionDesk CRM.

Making a Request

We recommend using your favorite programming language and a HTTP library with the API.

Creating an App

Before you can make requests you'll need to create an application.

Authentication

API requests are authenticated with OAuth access tokens. Learn about authenticating and access tokens.

Calling the API

Once you've generated an access token, you can call the API:

GET https://api-v2.liondesk.com//contacts headers: { Authorization: "Bearer [access token]", Content-Type: "application/json" }

The API returns JSON with details of your query:

{ "id":"01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-456789abcdef", "name":"Steve Jobs", "company":"Apple", ... }
