Build on Argenta
Argenta's developer platform lets your own systems react to what happens in your organization the moment it happens. Point us at a URL, choose the events you care about, and we send you a signed, verifiable message every time. Start with webhooks below — more of the platform is on the way.
Start here
React the moment a record changes in Argenta — constituents, volunteers, donations, and more. Signed, retried, at-least-once delivery.
Create, update, look up, and search constituents from Zapier, Make, or your own systems, with self-serve API keys.
Manage volunteers and volunteer tasks over REST — create tasks, assign or claim shifts, update volunteer status. Same keys as the Constituents API.
Record gifts from your own tools and search giving history over REST. Create-only by design — corrections stay in Argenta with the audit trail.
What you can build today
Webhooks for constituents. Get notified the instant a constituent is created, updated, or deleted in Argenta — perfect for keeping an external CRM, data warehouse, or automation in sync without polling. Every delivery is signed so you can confirm it really came from us, retried on failure with exponential backoff, and delivered at least once. See the Webhooks Guide for setup, the event catalog, the payload format, and signature verification with copy-paste code.
The Constituents API. The other direction: create, update, look up, and search constituents from your own systems or tools like Zapier and Make, with self-serve API keys your team admin manages in Argenta. Together with webhooks it closes the loop — Argenta tells your tools what changed, and your tools can change Argenta. See the Constituents API Guide.
The Volunteerism API. The volunteerism module over the same keys: register volunteers, create volunteer tasks, assign or safely claim open shifts, and mark work complete — with the same confirmation and reminder emails an in-app assignment sends. See the Volunteerism API Guide.
The Donations API. Record gifts the moment they happen in your own tools and search giving history — entered exactly like a hand-keyed gift, with donor levels recalculated and your donation webhooks firing. Create-only by design: corrections stay in Argenta with the audit trail. See the Donations API Guide.
Coming soon
The platform is built to scale, so new capabilities slot in without changing how you integrate:
- More webhook events — donations, events, memberships, and more. If your endpoint subscribes to all events, new types start arriving automatically.
- REST endpoints for more resources — donations and events are next.
- A full API reference with request and response examples for every resource.
