Creating, editing, rotating and revoking tokens is not part of the API. For security reasons,
these operations can only be done in the panel.
Testing from the playground
1
Open any endpoint
Start with a
GET, such as GET /contacts. Reads don’t change any data.2
Provide the token
In the Authorization field, paste your
sk_live_… key. It is stored only in your
browser.3
Check the server
The playground points to
https://api.connectadesk.com/api/v1. If your installation is
on-premise, replace it with your environment’s domain.The map of the modules
Each group in the left-hand menu matches a token permission module. If an endpoint responds with403 ERR_API_FORBIDDEN_SCOPE, your token is missing the permission for that group’s module.
Conversations
Contacts, Tickets, Messages, Channels and Webchat. This is the foundation for anyone
integrating customer service.
Organization
Tags, Queues, Wrap-up types, Users and Permission profiles. They define how tickets are
distributed and classified, and what each person can do.
Outreach
Scheduled messages, Quick replies and Campaigns. They cover the messages that go from the
company to the customer.
Sales
CRM, Products and Custom fields. They support the sales boards and the catalog.
Reports
Conversation and automation reports, plus the dashboard indicators. They show the numbers of
the operation.
Conventions
A few rules apply to every endpoint:Envelope
Every resource comes in
data, and every error comes in error.Pagination
page and perPage, with hasMore to tell you whether there are more pages. There is no
total.Idempotency
Idempotency-Key on POST and PUT.Limits
Request limit per minute, per company.
Versioning
The version is part of the path:/api/v1. While it exists, changes will only be additive.
New fields and endpoints may appear, but the ones that already exist keep their name, type and
meaning.
That is why your integration should ignore fields it doesn’t recognize instead of failing when it
finds them. Changes that break compatibility only come with a new version in the path.
