API & Make.com / Zapier Integration

Last updated July 22, 2026

The JourneyFuse API lets outside tools create data in your workspace automatically. Where Webhooks send data out of JourneyFuse when something happens, the API lets you send data in — for example, pushing a new Facebook lead into JourneyFuse the moment it comes in, with no manual copying.

If you use Make.com, Zapier, or your own code to move data between tools, this is how you connect them to JourneyFuse.

What You Can Do

The API is currently in beta and covers the most common automation needs:

ActionMethodEndpoint
Verify your key / get workspace infoGET/api/v1/me
Create a leadPOST/api/v1/leads
Create a clientPOST/api/v1/clients
Find clients (by email, or list recent)GET/api/v1/clients
Create a tripPOST/api/v1/trips
Get a trip by IDGET/api/v1/trips/:id

The base URL is https://journeyfuse.com (or your agency's custom domain, if you have one).

Getting Your API Key

  1. Go to Settings → API
  2. Click New API key
  3. Give it a name you'll recognize later (e.g. "Make.com - Facebook Leads")
  4. Copy the key that appears (it starts with jf_live_)

Your full key is shown only once, right after you create it. Copy it somewhere safe before closing the dialog. If you lose it, just create a new one and delete the old.

Treat a key like a password. You can revoke one at any time from the same page.

Key Scope: Advisor vs Agency

Every key belongs to one workspace, and how much of that workspace it reaches depends on who created it.

Who creates itScopeWhat the key can reach
An advisor on a teamAdvisor onlyThat advisor's own clients, leads, and trips
An agency owner or adminAgency-wideEvery record in the workspace
A solo agency (one member)Agency-wideEverything, since it is all yours anyway

This matters most at a host agency, where hundreds of independent advisors share one JourneyFuse workspace. An advisor's key can never read a colleague's clients, and a lookup for someone else's client comes back empty rather than telling you it exists somewhere.

If you are on a team, your key behaves like this:

  • Reads return only your own records. GET /api/v1/clients lists your clients, and another advisor's trip returns 404 even with the correct ID.
  • Writes are stamped to you automatically. A client, lead, or trip created with your key is assigned to you and shows up in your pipeline right away.
  • Lead routing is ignored. agent_email and agent_id are accepted so the same request body works everywhere, but leads always land on you. Use an agency-wide key to route leads to other advisors.
  • Webhooks only fire for your own records. A webhook you create, in Settings → Webhooks or through our Zapier app, receives events for your clients, leads, and trips only. Your agency's own webhooks are unaffected and still see everything.

Owners and admins see every key in the workspace on the Settings → API page, labeled Advisor only or Agency-wide. Advisors see only their own.

Authentication

Send your key on every request, in either of these headers:

Authorization: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here

or

x-api-key: jf_live_your_key_here

To check that a key works, call the me endpoint:

curl https://journeyfuse.com/api/v1/me \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here"

A working key returns your workspace:

{
  "workspace": { "id": "...", "name": "Your Agency", "kind": "agency" },
  "scopes": ["*"]
}

Creating a Lead

This is the most common use: pushing a new inquiry into JourneyFuse so it shows up in your Leads pipeline at stage New.

Endpoint: POST /api/v1/leads

Body fields:

FieldRequiredNotes
first_nameYes
last_nameYes
emailNo
phoneNo
sourceNoWhere the lead came from, e.g. "Facebook Lead Ads"
destinationNoWhere they want to travel
notesNoAny extra detail from the form
agent_emailNoRoute the lead to a specific agent by their JourneyFuse email
agent_idNoRoute the lead to a specific agent by their user ID

Example request:

curl -X POST https://journeyfuse.com/api/v1/leads \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "first_name": "Jamie",
    "last_name": "Rivera",
    "email": "jamie@example.com",
    "phone": "+1 555 123 4567",
    "source": "Facebook Lead Ads",
    "destination": "Maui",
    "notes": "Honeymoon, late September, budget around $8k",
    "agent_email": "rebecca@youragency.com"
  }'

Successful response (201 Created):

{
  "data": {
    "id": "a1b2c3d4-...",
    "first_name": "Jamie",
    "last_name": "Rivera",
    "email": "jamie@example.com",
    "phone": "+1 555 123 4567",
    "source": "Facebook Lead Ads",
    "stage": "new",
    "destination": "Maui",
    "assigned_to": "9a26f4ee-...",
    "assignment_status": "pending",
    "created_at": "2026-06-17T14:30:00.000Z"
  },
  "assignment": { "requested": "rebecca@youragency.com", "matched": true }
}

The new lead appears in your Leads pipeline immediately, and a lead.created webhook fires if you have one set up.

Assigning a lead to an agent

This applies to agency-wide keys. On an advisor-scoped key these fields are ignored and the lead is assigned to you (see Key Scope).

Pass agent_email and/or agent_id to route an incoming lead straight to a specific agent. The identifier is matched against your agency's members (email match is case-insensitive):

  • On a match, the lead is assigned to that agent pending their acceptance, exactly like a lead you assign by hand in the app. They get the in-app notification and email to accept or decline it.
  • On no match (the email or ID doesn't belong to anyone on your team), the lead is still created, just left unassigned. The response's assignment.matched is false, so your automation can flag it.

If you send both agent_email and agent_id, the ID is tried first and the email is used as a fallback.

Step by Step: Facebook Lead Ads to JourneyFuse via Make.com

This walks through the exact setup for sending Facebook lead-ad leads straight into JourneyFuse, replacing a tool like ClickUp in the middle.

  1. In Make.com, create a new scenario
  2. Add the Facebook Lead Ads module → Watch Leads, and connect your Facebook page and lead form
  3. Add a second module: HTTPMake a request
  4. Configure the HTTP module:
    • URL: https://journeyfuse.com/api/v1/leads
    • Method: POST
    • Headers: add one header
      • Name: Authorization
      • Value: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here
    • Body type: Raw
    • Content type: application/json
    • Request content: map the Facebook fields into the JSON body:
{
  "first_name": "{{first_name}}",
  "last_name": "{{last_name}}",
  "email": "{{email}}",
  "phone": "{{phone_number}}",
  "source": "Facebook Lead Ads",
  "destination": "{{destination}}"
}
  1. Run the scenario once to test, then check your JourneyFuse Leads pipeline for the new lead
  2. Turn the scenario on

That is the whole flow. Every new Facebook lead now lands in JourneyFuse automatically, tagged with the source so you know where it came from. The same HTTP module approach works for any tool that can send an HTTP request, including Zapier's Webhooks by Zapier → POST action.

Creating a Client

Endpoint: POST /api/v1/clients

Required: first_name, last_name. Optional: email, phone, household_id. If you leave household_id out, a household is created automatically (the same as adding a client in the app).

curl -X POST https://journeyfuse.com/api/v1/clients \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "first_name": "Sam", "last_name": "Lee", "email": "sam@example.com" }'

Finding Clients

Endpoint: GET /api/v1/clients

List the most recent clients, or look one up by email:

# Most recent (up to 100; default 20)
curl "https://journeyfuse.com/api/v1/clients?limit=50" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here"

# Find by email
curl "https://journeyfuse.com/api/v1/clients?email=sam@example.com" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here"

Creating a Trip

Endpoint: POST /api/v1/trips

Required: name. Optional: client_id, start_date, end_date, destination, status (defaults to planning). If you pass a client_id, it must belong to your workspace.

curl -X POST https://journeyfuse.com/api/v1/trips \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer jf_live_your_key_here" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Rivera Honeymoon - Maui",
    "client_id": "a1b2c3d4-...",
    "start_date": "2026-09-20",
    "end_date": "2026-09-28",
    "destination": "Maui"
  }'

Error Responses

Errors come back as JSON with a consistent shape:

{ "error": "invalid_input", "message": "first_name and last_name are required.", "fields": { "last_name": "required" } }
StatusWhat it means
400Missing or invalid fields, or the body was not valid JSON
401Missing key, or the key is wrong or revoked
404The record was not found in your workspace
500Something went wrong on our end

Tips

  • Test with /api/v1/me first so you know the key works before building the rest of the automation
  • Set a clear source on leads (like "Facebook Lead Ads") so you can tell at a glance where each one came from
  • Use one key per integration and name it after the tool, so you can revoke just that one if you ever need to
  • Pair the API with Webhooks for two-way sync: send leads in via the API, and push updates back out via webhooks
  • The API is in beta while we add more endpoints. If there's something you want to automate that isn't covered yet, let us know.
