API Data Provider - Online Help

Connecting to Infusionsoft

To authenticate to Infusionsoft, and connect to your own data or to allow other users to connect to their data, you can use the OAuth standard.

Using OAuth Authentication

First, you will need to register an OAuth application with Infusionsoft. To do so, login to your Infusionsoft Developer Account, then go to Apps from dropdown menu at up right corner and create a new application. Your Oauth application will be assigned API Keys (key and secret).

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

  • AuthScheme: Set this to OAuth.
  • InitiateOAuth: Set this to GETANDREFRESH. You can use InitiateOAuth to manage the process to obtain the OAuthAccessToken.
  • OAuthClientId: Set this to the Key that is specified in your app API Keys.
  • OAuthClientSecret: Set this to the Secret that is specified in your app API Keys.

Example connection string:

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