Dealer Edit Pro ⋅ API Documentation

Welcome to the API documentation for Dealer Edit Pro. This documentation is intended for developers who wish to integrate with the Dealer Edit Pro API.

Our team will provide login credentials for this portal to allow you to create applications and review your API requests.

Authentication

OAuth 2.0 is currently the only supported method of authentication.

We recommend adding a shortcut button to your application that will allow you to quickly redirect to your app's authorization page.

An example of your authorization URL is as follows:

GET https://portal.autocartel.com/oauth/authorize?client_id={CLIENT_ID}&response_type=code&redirect_uri={REDIRECT_URI}

The portal will redirect back to your system with a code parameter in the URL:

{REDIRECT_URI}?code=1234567890asdfghjkl

You will exchange this code to receive your access and refresh token. The endpoint and required parameters for the exchange is:

POST https://portal.autocartel.com/oauth/token

• grant_type=authorization_code
• client_id={CLIENT_ID}
• client_secret={CLIENT_SECRET}
• redirect_uri={REDIRECT_URI}
• code={CODE}

The access token will be used as a Bearer token in the Authorization header for all requests to the API.

We recommend refreshing the token daily for security. The current expiration for access tokens is set to 3 days and refresh tokens are set to 7 days.

To refresh tokens, the format is:

POST https://portal.autocartel.com/oauth/token

• grant_type=refresh_token
• client_id={CLIENT_ID}
• client_secret={CLIENT_SECRET}
• redirect_uri={REDIRECT_URI}
• refresh_token={CODE}
