What is the API?

The API will allow you to interact with your Lead Forensics data within any platform of your choice. Connecting to the Lead Forensics API could be used to help enhance the data you have in your systems, or even to automate many everyday tasks that you perform within your Lead Forensics portal.

The Lead Forensics API is a REST API. JSON will be returned in all responses from the API, including errors.

The Lead Forensics API can be used to retrieve data about the companies visiting your website (see businesses, reference data, and visits). You can also call the information about your website performance, which is displayed in your Lead Forensics reports inside your portal (see KPI).
