How to Access the API

Bronto's API is a stateless SOAP API. That means that the majority of all calls have REST-style statelessness, but the interface provides a strong definition for the interface and types of the various API objects and functions.

API Tokens

Before logging into an account, the account must have the API feature enabled, and must have at least one API token created. API tokens act as an authentication and control object, and are similar to users. API tokens can have any combination of read, write, and sending permissions, and can be activated, deactivated, or deleted at any time. API tokens can be created programmatically via the API, or interactively in the application.

If you are an Agency or Groups Edition client, you can create and edit tokens able to access all your accounts or a specific account inside the Agency Application. If you have a Professional or Core Edition account, you may create and edit API tokens underneath Home -> Settings -> Data Exchange.
