Close.io's End Points
Close.io Contacts
Request information about a contact that works for one of your leads, including the contact’s name, title, phone number, ID or email address. This data allows you to more closely track communications, both with individual contacts and with groups of contacts within a company.
Close.io Activities
Track all actions that are related to a lead, including emails, phone calls, notes and status changes. Then, retrieve data about those activities, such as the content of a note, the length of a call or the date and time that a status was changed. This information will give you a more detailed view of your team’s interactions with that lead.
Close.io Opportunities
Retrieve details surrounding a deal or potential deal, such as who the deal is with, the value of the deal, and its status (i.e. whether it is won, lost, or active). You can then more accurately project your business’ revenue and gauge the performance of team members involved with those opportunities.
Close.io Organizations
Get data about a subset of agents within your company, including the status of their deals, which team members belong to that organization and what their contact information is. Then, use this data to generate more detailed analytics on various segments of your team.
Close.io Custom Fields
Create custom Close.io fields that track data in ways that are more useful to your company. For example, create a custom list of categories to sort your leads by and use those fields to perform lead searches that are more relevant to the specific interests of your company.
