Accessing Talkdesk APIs
- If you are a current customer with a plan, submit a request asking for API access, and send your account information. Please note that each partner app has access to a set of APIs (the requested ones) and there can be no exceptions (adding or removing scopes) per customer request.
- If you are a current customer without a plan, contact your Customer Success Manager.
- Go here if you are interested in becoming a partner.
Talkdesk APIs are available to platform partners and enterprise customers.
Talkdesk doesn't give API access to third-parties other than customers, or third-party companies engaged with the Talkdesk AppConnect™ partnership program.
Talkdesk Customers
Unencrypted credentials must not be shared with anyone (not even with Talkdesk).
Talkdesk Customers or Testing
To access a specific account's data (for example, for Talkdesk customers using Talkdesk APIs to customize their experience or partners testing out and experimenting with Talkdesk APIs), you can use Builder to generate an account-restricted OAuth client. In this case, you can use the base URL that corresponds to the account region.
Partner Apps
Partner apps can access the Talkdesk APIs by using the Events API to get OAuth client credentials for specific customers that install the app. You get this by listening to the app.installed event. This event provides not only the OAuth client credentials but also a link, named root, which specifies the localized API Gateway to access the Talkdesk APIs and retrieves data for the specified customer. The root link is present at all events.
