Connecting to GetResponse

To authenticate to GetResponse, you can use either token authentication or the OAuth standard. Use token authentication to connect to your own data. Use OAuth to allow other users to connect to their data.

Using Token Authentication

GetResponse uses an X-Auth-Token to control access to the API. This token can be found under 'My account' > 'Use GetResponse API'. You can set the the APIKey to this X-Auth-Token in the ProfileSettings connection property.

Example connection string

Profile=C:\profiles\GetResponse.apip;ProfileSettings='ApiKey=my_x-auth-token';

Using OAuth Authentication

First, you will need to register and set up the GetResponse API OAuth application. You can find the client credentials of your application and manage other options in your GetResponse App Console.

After setting the following connection properties, you are ready to connect:

• AuthScheme: Set this to OAuth.
• OAuthClientID: Set this to the client ID that you received upon app registration.
• OAuthClientSecret: Set this to the client secret that you received upon app registration.
• CallbackURL: Set this to the Redirect URI that you specified in your app.
• InitiateOAuth: Set this to GETANDREFRESH. You can use InitiateOAuth to manage how the driver obtains and refreshes the OAuthAccessToken.

Example connection string

Profile=C:\profiles\GetResponse.apip;Authscheme=OAuth;InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;OAuthClientId=your_client_id;OAuthClientSecret=your_client_secret;CallbackUrl=your_callback_url;
