REST API Dev

Connect everything to Slimbot with a clear REST API.

What is REST API Dev?

Our REST API gives you programmatic access to all platform functions, from chats and leads to documents and settings. This allows you to connect Slimbot with your own software or custom integrations without detours. Ideal when you as a developer or agency want to build a bespoke integration.

How does it work?

  1. Create an API key in your account for the integration.
  2. Choose the endpoint you need and send a standard request.
  3. Receive the data neatly back in a predictable format.
  4. Set limits and permissions per key to keep it secure.

Use cases

Webshop automatically pushing orders as a lead to Slimbot.
Accounting firm forwarding client questions from its own portal.
Installation company that connects quote requests from their CRM.
Agency rolling out the same integration for multiple clients.

Benefits

  • Build exactly the integration your business needs.
  • Works with virtually any programming language and tool.
  • Permissions per key keep your data secure.
  • Predictable format saves your developer hours.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a developer to use the API?

For a real integration, yes: the API is intended for programmers or your web agency. If you want to connect without code, you're often better off using Webhooks or a ready-made integration.

Is there a limit on the number of requests?

Yes, each API key has a reasonable limit to prevent abuse. For normal use you won't notice this; for intensive integrations we can increase it in consultation.

Can I revoke a key if it has been leaked?

Certainly. You can revoke a key with one click and create a new one, without disrupting your other integrations.
