The Inflection Developer API gives you programmatic access to the core objects of your workspace. It’s organized around five resources:
  • Contacts: look people up by id or email, create them, and keep their attributes in sync.
  • Contact activity: a contact’s product events, marketing engagement, a change log of record properties, and the mapped Salesforce record.
  • Lists & members: static lists and the contacts on them.
  • Emails: create HTML emails in Inflection, and fetch emails (both HTML and visual editor) by ID.
  • Email versions: push per-contact versions of a Personalized Email Asset via POST /v1/email-versions for 1:1 sends at scale. See Send Personalized Emails from Clay for a worked example.
Every path lives under /v1 on the API gateway: https://api.inflection.io
The API is JSON over HTTPS, authenticated with a bearer token, either a Personal Access Token or an OAuth access token (see Authentication). Reads are synchronous; contact writes are processed asynchronously and return a transaction you poll (see Asynchronous writes).

Tokens, scopes, and what 401 vs 403 mean.
