This is the official PHP wrapper for the ActiveCampaign API. The purpose of these files is to provide a simple interface to the ActiveCampaign API. You are not required to use these files (in order to use the ActiveCampaign API), but it's recommended for a few reasons:

1. It's a lot easier to get set up and use (as opposed to coding everything from scratch on your own).
2. It's fully supported by ActiveCampaign, meaning we fix any issues immediately, as well as continually improve the wrapper as the software changes and evolves.
3. It's often the standard approach for demonstrating API requests when using ActiveCampaign support.

Both customers of our hosted platform and On-Site edition can use these files. On-Site customers should clone the source and switch to the "onsite" branch, as that is geared towards the On-Site edition. Many features of the hosted platform are not available in the On-Site edition.

You can install activecampaign-api-php by downloading (.zip) or cloning the source:

git clone [email protected]:ActiveCampaign/activecampaign-api-php.git

If you are using Composer, create your composer.json file (example here).

Then load the composer.phar file in that directory:

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Next, run install to load the ActiveCampaign library:

php composer.phar install

You should then see the activecampaign folder inside vendor.

Read more about using Composer.

In your script just include the autoload.php file to load all classes:

require "vendor/autoload.php";

Next, create a class instance of ActiveCampaign:

$ac = new ActiveCampaign("API_URL", "API_KEY");

That's it!

define("ACTIVECAMPAIGN_URL", "API_URL");
define("ACTIVECAMPAIGN_API_KEY", "API_KEY");

require_once("includes/ActiveCampaign.class.php");

$ac = new ActiveCampaign(ACTIVECAMPAIGN_URL, ACTIVECAMPAIGN_API_KEY);

$account = $ac->api("account/view");

Or just include everything in the same PHP file:

define("ACTIVECAMPAIGN_URL", "API_URL");
define("ACTIVECAMPAIGN_API_KEY", "API_KEY");
require_once("includes/ActiveCampaign.class.php");
$ac = new ActiveCampaign(ACTIVECAMPAIGN_URL, ACTIVECAMPAIGN_API_KEY);

$account = $ac->api("account/view");
