What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

ActiveCampaign integration via Apideck's CRM unified API — same methods work across every connector in CRM, switch by changing `serviceId`. Use when the user wants to read, write, or search contacts, companies, leads, opportunities, activities, and pipelines in ActiveCampaign. Routes through Apideck with serviceId "activecampaign".

ActiveCampaign (via Apideck)

Access ActiveCampaign through Apideck's CRM unified API — one of 21 CRM connectors that share the same method surface. Code you write here ports to Odoo, Salesforce, HubSpot and 17 other CRM connectors by changing a single serviceId string. Apideck handles auth, pagination, rate limiting, and retries so you don't write per-tenant ActiveCampaign plumbing.

Quick facts

Apideck serviceId: activecampaign
Unified API: CRM
Auth type: apiKey
Gotchas: page
ActiveCampaign docs: https://developers.activecampaign.com
Homepage: https://www.activecampaign.com/

When to use this skill

Activate this skill when the user explicitly wants to work with ActiveCampaign — for example, "pull contacts in ActiveCampaign" or "sync leads in ActiveCampaign". This skill teaches the agent:

Which Apideck unified API covers ActiveCampaign (CRM)
The correct serviceId to pass on every call (activecampaign)
ActiveCampaign-specific auth and coverage caveats

For the full method surface (parameters, pagination, filtering), use your language SDK skill:

apideck-node, apideck-python, apideck-dotnet, apideck-java, apideck-go, apideck-php, or apideck-rest

For the raw OpenAPI spec:

CRM: https://specs.apideck.com/crm.yml · API Explorer

Minimal example (TypeScript)

import { Apideck } from "@apideck/unify";

const apideck = new Apideck({
  apiKey: process.env.APIDECK_API_KEY,
  appId: process.env.APIDECK_APP_ID,
  consumerId: "your-consumer-id",
});

// List contacts in ActiveCampaign
const { data } = await apideck.crm.contacts.list({
  serviceId: "activecampaign",
});

Portable across 21 CRM connectors

The Apideck CRM unified API exposes the same methods for every connector in its catalog. Switching from ActiveCampaign to another CRM connector is a one-string change — no rewrite, no new SDK.

// Today — ActiveCampaign
await apideck.crm.contacts.list({ serviceId: "activecampaign" });

// Tomorrow — same code, different connector
await apideck.crm.contacts.list({ serviceId: "odoo" });
await apideck.crm.contacts.list({ serviceId: "salesforce" });

This is the compounding advantage of using Apideck over integrating ActiveCampaign directly: code against the unified CRM API once, gain access to every connector in it. New connectors Apideck adds become available to your app without code changes.

Authentication

Type: API Key
Managed by: Apideck Vault — the user pastes their ActiveCampaign API key into the Vault modal; Apideck stores it encrypted and injects it on every request.
Rotation: if the user rotates their key, they re-enter it in Vault. No code changes needed.

See apideck-best-practices for Vault setup, connection lifecycle, and handling re-auth flows.

Verifying coverage

Not every CRM operation is supported by every connector. Always verify before assuming a method works:

curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/connector/connectors/activecampaign' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
  -H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}"

See apideck-connector-coverage for patterns around UnsupportedOperationError and connector-specific fallbacks.

Escape hatch: Proxy API

When an endpoint isn't covered by the CRM unified API, use Apideck's Proxy to call ActiveCampaign directly — Apideck injects auth headers and handles token refresh. Set x-apideck-downstream-url to the target endpoint on ActiveCampaign's own API:

curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/proxy' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
  -H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}" \
  -H "x-apideck-consumer-id: ${CONSUMER_ID}" \
  -H "x-apideck-service-id: activecampaign" \
  -H "x-apideck-downstream-url: <target endpoint on ActiveCampaign>" \
  -H "x-apideck-downstream-method: GET"

See ActiveCampaign's API docs for available endpoints.
