How Authentication Works in Perfex CRM API (Tokens & Access Control)

Introduction

Secure API access is critical when exposing CRM data to external systems. Authentication ensures only authorized users can access data.

Overview

Perfex CRM API uses token-based authentication to control access.

Each request must include a valid token, ensuring secure communication.

Token-Based Authentication

Tokens act as keys:

• identify user
• define permissions

Access Control

Permissions can restrict:

• specific datasets
• actions (read/write)

Data Builder for Perfex CRM supports structured access control:

• scoped datasets
• controlled exposure

This improves security without complex setup.
