apideck-php

Apideck Unified API integration patterns for PHP. Use when building integrations with accounting software (QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite), CRMs (Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive), HRIS platforms (Workday, BambooHR), file storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, Box), ATS systems (Greenhouse, Lever), e-commerce, or any of Apideck's 200+ connectors using PHP. Covers the apideck-libraries/sdk-php Composer package, authentication, CRUD operations, pagination, error handling, and Vault connection management.

Apideck PHP SDK Skill

Overview

The Apideck Unified API provides a single integration layer to connect with 200+ third-party services across accounting, CRM, HRIS, file storage, ATS, e-commerce, and more. The official PHP SDK provides typed clients for all unified APIs.

Installation

composer require apideck-libraries/sdk-php

IMPORTANT RULES

  • ALWAYS use the apideck-libraries/sdk-php Composer package. DO NOT make raw Guzzle/curl calls to the Apideck API.
  • ALWAYS pass security, app ID, and consumer ID via the builder when creating the client.
  • USE serviceId on requests to specify which downstream connector to use.
  • ALWAYS handle errors with try/catch using Errors\APIException as the base class.
  • DO NOT store API keys in source code. Use environment variables.

Quick Start

<?php

use Apideck\Unify;
use Apideck\Unify\Models\Operations;
use Apideck\Unify\Models\Components;

$sdk = Unify\Apideck::builder()
    ->setConsumerId('your-consumer-id')
    ->setAppId('your-app-id')
    ->setSecurity(getenv('APIDECK_API_KEY'))
    ->build();

$request = new Operations\CrmContactsAllRequest(
    serviceId: 'salesforce',
    limit: 20,
);

$responses = $sdk->crm->contacts->list(request: $request);

foreach ($responses as $response) {
    if ($response->httpMeta->response->getStatusCode() === 200) {
        foreach ($response->getContactsResponse->data as $contact) {
            echo $contact->name . "\n";
        }
    }
}

SDK Patterns

Client Setup

use Apideck\Unify;

$sdk = Unify\Apideck::builder()
    ->setConsumerId('your-consumer-id')
    ->setAppId('your-app-id')
    ->setSecurity(getenv('APIDECK_API_KEY'))
    ->build();

CRUD Operations

All resources follow the pattern: $sdk->{api}->{resource}->{operation}(request: $request).

use Apideck\Unify\Models\Operations;
use Apideck\Unify\Models\Components;

// LIST
$request = new Operations\CrmContactsAllRequest(
    serviceId: 'salesforce',
    limit: 20,
    filter: new Components\ContactsFilter(email: 'john@example.com'),
    sort: new Components\ContactsSort(
        by: Components\ContactsSortBy::UpdatedAt,
        direction: Components\SortDirection::Desc,
    ),
);
$responses = $sdk->crm->contacts->list(request: $request);

// CREATE
$request = new Operations\CrmContactsAddRequest(
    serviceId: 'salesforce',
    contact: new Components\ContactInput(
        firstName: 'John',
        lastName: 'Doe',
        emails: [
            new Components\Email(email: 'john@example.com', type: Components\EmailType::Primary),
        ],
        phoneNumbers: [
            new Components\PhoneNumber(number: '+1234567890', type: Components\PhoneNumberType::Mobile),
        ],
    ),
);
$response = $sdk->crm->contacts->create(request: $request);

// GET
$request = new Operations\CrmContactsOneRequest(
    id: 'contact_123',
    serviceId: 'salesforce',
);
$response = $sdk->crm->contacts->get(request: $request);

// UPDATE
$request = new Operations\CrmContactsUpdateRequest(
    id: 'contact_123',
    serviceId: 'salesforce',
    contact: new Components\ContactInput(firstName: 'Jane'),
);
$response = $sdk->crm->contacts->update(request: $request);

// DELETE
$request = new Operations\CrmContactsDeleteRequest(
    id: 'contact_123',
    serviceId: 'salesforce',
);
$response = $sdk->crm->contacts->delete(request: $request);

Pagination

The list method returns a PHP Generator. Iterate with foreach:

$request = new Operations\AccountingInvoicesAllRequest(
    serviceId: 'quickbooks',
    limit: 50,
);

$responses = $sdk->accounting->invoices->list(request: $request);

foreach ($responses as $response) {
    if ($response->httpMeta->response->getStatusCode() === 200) {
        foreach ($response->getInvoicesResponse->data as $invoice) {
            echo "{$invoice->number}: {$invoice->total}\n";
        }
    }
}

Error Handling

use Apideck\Unify\Models\Errors;

try {
    $responses = $sdk->crm->contacts->list(request: $request);
    foreach ($responses as $response) {
        // handle response
    }
} catch (Errors\BadRequestResponseThrowable $e) {
    echo "Bad request: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n";
} catch (Errors\UnauthorizedResponseThrowable $e) {
    echo "Unauthorized\n";
} catch (Errors\NotFoundResponseThrowable $e) {
    echo "Not found\n";
} catch (Errors\PaymentRequiredResponseThrowable $e) {
    echo "API limit reached\n";
} catch (Errors\UnprocessableResponseThrowable $e) {
    echo "Validation error: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n";
} catch (Errors\APIException $e) {
    echo "API error: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n";
}

Retry Configuration

use Apideck\Unify\Utils\Retry;

// Global
$sdk = Unify\Apideck::builder()
    ->setRetryConfig(
        new Retry\RetryConfigBackoff(
            initialInterval: 1,
            maxInterval: 50,
            exponent: 1.1,
            maxElapsedTime: 100,
            retryConnectionErrors: false,
        )
    )
    ->setConsumerId('your-consumer-id')
    ->setAppId('your-app-id')
    ->setSecurity(getenv('APIDECK_API_KEY'))
    ->build();
