Pipedrive 

Pipedrive is a sales pipeline CRM designed to help small businesses manage leads, track sales activities and close more deals.

For more information about the API, see the Pipedrive REST API.

See the Schema section for a list of objects available for replication.

Preparing for authentication

To access your data, you need to authenticate the connection with your account credentials.

Information noteMake sure that the account you use has read access to the tables you want to fetch.

To obtain the API token:

  1. Make sure you have the Admin permissions in Pipedrive.

    You need them to ensure Qlik can access and replicate all your data. It is recommend that you create a separate Pipedrive Admin user for Qlik, but this is not mandatory to use the integration. Creating a dedicated user makes the activities easier to distinguish in logs and audits.

    If you do not want to create a dedicated user, make sure that the credentials you use to connect to Qlik have Admin permissions. If the API token associated with a non-Admin user is used to set up the integration, Qlik may be unable to access and replicate all of your data.

    Users are counted at the account-level in Pipedrive, not the company level. If you want to create a user for Qlik and are concerned about the cost of your Pipedrive subscription, you will not be charged twice.

  2. If you created a Pipedrive user for Qlik, log into Pipedrive as the Qlik user. If you did not, log into Pipedrive as an Admin user.
  3. Click the user menu (where your avatar is) in the top-right corner of the screen.
  4. Click Settings > API.
  5. Copy the API token:

    Personal API token in the Pipedrive app

Connecting multiple Pipedrive companies

If you want to connect more than one Pipedrive company, repeat the entire procedure above for every company you want to add. You must create a separate Pipedrive integration for each company.

Our Pipedrive integration uses an API Token to authenticate. Pipedrive API tokens are unique not only at the user level, but the company level as well. This means that a user’s API Token will vary from company to company, even if everything is housed in the same Pipedrive account.

Creating the connection

For more information, see Connecting to SaaS applications.

  1. Fill in the required connection properties.
  2. Provide a name for the connection in Connection name.

  3. Select Open connection metadata to define metadata for the connection when it has been created.

  4. Click Create.
