Getting Started

Use these docs to build a customer or pro integration. Start by choosing the path that matches your platform, then set up your environment, authenticate, and make your first API call.

Choose your integration path

Thumbtack supports two types of integrations. Choose the one that matches what you're building:
  • Marketplace integrations — For platforms that help customers find pros, explore services, and submit project requests
  • Pro integrations — For tools that help pros manage leads, messages, profiles, and customer activity
