Chatwoot Platform APIs

The Chatwoot Platform APIs allow you to integrate a conversation management interface into your existing software stack. Installation admins can use these APIs to manage users, accounts, and roles. Additionally, these APIs can be used to sync authentication information from external systems into Chatwoot.

Note: These APIs are available only on self-hosted Chatwoot installations.
