Getting Started with the Reviewsnap API

Our customer API makes it easy to integrate other applications with Reviewsnap, manage user information across platforms, and retrieve useful review data programmatically.

Modify and Access

The Reviewsnap API provides the ability to programmatically manage common resources inside your account. Our API follows industry best practices, guaranteeing a predictable and intuitive interface for how we format responses, parse parameters, and support features like pagination, filtering, and more. For more details, please visit our technical API documentation.

Use Cases

The most common reason people use the Reviewsnap API is to sync user data across systems. This allows Reviewsnap to sync with your “System of Record” for employee data, to always have an up to date employee list – cutting down on your team’s maintenance of the system.

We also see the API used to retrieve overall review details for populating in other systems, or to automate any repetitive tasks.
