From the New REsimpli Live Unveiling sessions, September 8–11, 2026. Limits updated 1 October 2026. API capabilities updated 28 October 2026.
Is Open API access included in my plan?
Yes. Open API access is included on every plan. The API documentation becomes available inside the platform when 6.0 goes live on September 12; API keys are issued at launch. (Day 2 and Day 3 Webinars)
Where do I find my API key?
Settings → API & Webhooks. Keys are issued when 6.0 goes live. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
How many API keys can I have?
One. Restricted keys with limited permissions are planned for a future update. Until then, only share the key with people you trust — if it leaks, delete it and generate a new one. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
What is the API rate limit?
500 requests per minute per API key, applied across the whole API rather than per endpoint. Exceeding it returns an HTTP 429 error. The limit is the same on every plan. (Updated 1 October 2026 — increased from 100)
Can I request a higher rate limit?
Contact support with your use case. 500 requests per minute is considered generous for standard use, but higher limits can be reviewed. (Updated 1 October 2026)
Could my API traffic be throttled even under the limit?
Sustained maximum-rate usage over extended periods is monitored. Normal real-estate-investing use will not be affected. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
What can the API read?
Leads, buyers, vendors, agents, contacts, call logs, activity history, appointments, and the files and folders attached to a record — including property pictures. Plus your reference data: pipelines, markets, campaigns, tags, users and companies. Documentation is at developer.resimpli.com. (Updated 28 October 2026)
Can I create leads through the API or a webhook?
Yes. Leads can be created through the Open API rather than going through Zapier. Buyers, vendors and agents can also be created. (Day 1 Webinar, Sept 8)
Can the API update existing records?
Partly, and this has changed since launch. You can now update a record's status, add and remove tags, and write an activity note onto a record — for leads, buyers, vendors and agents. You can also manage the contacts attached to a lead: add a contact, add a phone number or email, remove a contact, or change which one is primary.
Other fields — a property address, a buyer's target cities, custom fields, assignment, adding tasks — still have to be edited inside REsimpli. (Updated 28 October 2026)
Does a change made through the API trigger my automations?
Yes. A status change made through the Open API fires your Status Change automations, the same as a change made by hand. This is a change from launch, when API changes deliberately did not fire automations.
Worth keeping in mind if you are pushing records in at volume — check which automations are listening before you start. (Updated 28 October 2026)
Can I pull KPI or accounting data through the API?
Not currently. Neither dashboard KPI data nor accounting data has an endpoint yet. Request specific endpoints through support. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
Can I push images into REsimpli through the API?
Not currently. You can pull pictures and documents out through the API, but pushing them in is not yet supported — it requires property and folder IDs and is planned for a later update. (Day 2 Webinar, Sept 9)
Can I send a text or an email through the API?
No. Call logs and activity can be read, but the API cannot send an SMS or an email. (Updated 28 October 2026)
Does the Open API work with the old version of REsimpli?
No. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
If I need a data endpoint that does not exist, can it be added?
Sharad said new endpoints are straightforward to add and invited requests for any data not currently exposed. The API has grown from 34 endpoints at launch to 54. (Day 2 Webinar, Sept 9; updated 28 October 2026)
How many webhooks can I have?
Up to 10 per account, on every plan. Webhooks can be fired from any automation trigger. Contact support if you need more than 10. (Updated 1 October 2026)
How do I set up a webhook?
Inside REsimpli, as an action on an automation — not through the Open API. Webhooks cannot be created or managed programmatically. (Updated 28 October 2026)
Can a webhook fire when a deal reaches a specific pipeline stage?
Yes. There is no trigger for eSign document or signature completion yet. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
Can I push notifications to an external system such as Slack?
Yes, through a webhook or an automation — for example pinging a third-party service whenever a property goes under contract. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
Does REsimpli integrate with Slack?
There is no direct Slack integration. Some functionality may be achievable through the Open API. (Day 3 Webinar, Sept 10)
Do I still need Zapier?
Not for REsimpli itself — the Open API lets you push leads directly. Zapier remains useful when the other platform has no API of its own, though Zapier offers fewer triggers than the Open API. Note that Zapier must be reconnected after launch using the new REsimpli 6.0 Zapier app. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
Do I need the API to connect my REsimpli website?
No. The REsimpli website is integrated with your account automatically. Form submissions come through without any API setup. (Day 4 Webinar, Sept 11)
Can I use my own direct mail provider through the API?
Yes, via webhook as part of an automation. Note that mail sent through a third party does not write tracking data back into REsimpli. (Day 3 Webinar, Sept 10)
Can I push my deals to InvestorLift or another dispo platform?
This should be possible through the Open API. An endpoint for property pictures is also available. (Day 2 and Day 4 Webinars)
Can I connect Claude or ChatGPT to REsimpli?
Not yet. REsimpli has started building an MCP server which would let you link your account to ChatGPT and Claude directly. It requires approval from those providers, and no date has been given. (Day 2 Webinar, Sept 9)
One thing to know when creating records
The marketing campaign field on the create endpoints is spelled marketingCampignId — missing the "a" in "campaign". That is the real field name and your request must use that exact spelling. (Updated 28 October 2026)
