Info

The Users API feed endpoints allows you to integrate User and Account information with other employee and customer-based software such as HRMS and CRM.

The feed is available if you have the API Feeds module. Please speak to your CSM to find out more about this module.

Purpose of the API Feeds

The Users API Feeds can be used to connect your accessplanit platform to other employee or customer platforms, such as your CRM system to sync your customer contacts, or your HR system to sync your employees.

Connecting your platforms and syncing the data between them removes the need for double data entry, reduces the risk of human error and eases the headache of managing multiple pieces of software!

There are three endpoints available for User & Account data, please see the below tables for the data that is available in each.

Each of these three feeds have different levels of reading, creating, and updating, the tables below explain what actions are available for the fields in each feed.
