This article explains steps you can take to investigate issues with Leads tasks that have a method of API.
For Sales API tasks, see the appropriate vendor article, such as CDK DMS.
Investigating API QA Issues
- Are there a full range of dates in the data loaded?
- Verify an API Key (& ID if necessary) have been entered on the corresponding property in the DMUI -> Data Management -> Properties -> 3rd Party page.
- If the dealer is new, verify the API key against the one that the vendor sent us in an email. Make sure they match.
- Verify the key Status is set to Active.
- If a Validate button is available, click Validate to verify the key works/is correct.
- Check the Jobs Server Logs for the specific API DAG and search for the property name or API Key. See if there are any error messages.
- If we are not receiving data or there are errors, contact the data vendor. See Vendor Details & Contact Information.
