Sparkforge API Documentation, Versions, and Rate Limits

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

The Sparkforge API exposes REST endpoints for contacts, conversations, calendars, workflows, and payments at marketplace.sparkforge.com/docs. V1 is end-of-support; build new integrations on V2 with OAuth 2.0 or private integration tokens.

The Sparkforge API lets developers build integrations, automate workflows, and connect external apps to Sparkforge CRM and the Sparkforge Marketplace. It exposes REST endpoints for contacts, messaging, workflows, calendars, payments, webhooks, and more.

API versions

V1 reached end-of-support on December 31, 2025. Existing V1 integrations continue to work, but no updates or fixes ship for V1. New API keys can no longer be generated for accounts that haven't already created one.

Build all new integrations on V2. It adds new endpoints, OAuth 2.0, and improved security.

Documentation

Official docs live at https://marketplace.sparkforge.com/docs/. The legacy Stoplight site is deprecated — update your bookmarks.

Authentication

  • Private Integration Tokens — internal tools or single-location integrations.
  • OAuth 2.0 — public integrations, Marketplace apps, and any flow that needs user authorization or multi-location access.

Rate limits

V2 enforces these limits per Marketplace app per resource (Location or Company):

  • Burst: 100 requests per 10 seconds.
  • Daily: 200,000 requests per day.

Track usage with these response headers:

  • X-RateLimit-Limit-Daily — your daily limit.
  • X-RateLimit-Daily-Remaining — remaining requests for the day.
  • X-RateLimit-Interval-Milliseconds — burst window length.
  • X-RateLimit-Max — max requests in the burst window.
  • X-RateLimit-Remaining — remaining requests in the current window.

API access by plan

Basic API access is included on Starter and Unlimited plans. Advanced API access — including OAuth 2.0 endpoints and Agency API keys — is available on the Agency Pro plan. Lower-tier plans are limited to Location API keys.
