The Deel API lets you connect your company's internal tools to Deel, so you can build custom integrations, automate workflows, and keep data in sync across systems, on your terms.
What you can do with the Deel API
With the Deel API, you can:
- Automate contractor and EOR workflows, including contracts, tasks, timesheets, milestones, and off-cycle payments
- Sync organizations, legal entities, and groups between Deel and your internal systems
- Trigger real-time automations with webhooks when contracts, payments, or approvals change
Deel is continuously expanding what's available through the API. For the full, up-to-date list of endpoints and capabilities, see the API reference.
Who can build with the API: You need to be an Org Admin or IT Developer Admin on Deel to generate API tokens and build integrations.
Getting started
To start building, head to the Deel Developer Center for everything you need, including:
- Quickstart guide – a walkthrough of your first API call
- Authentication – how to generate a personal or organization API token
- Sandbox setup – how to create a test account with sample data before you go live
FAQs
How long does it take to set up an integration?
This depends on the systems you're syncing with Deel and the scope of what you're building. A basic proof of concept can take a day; a full implementation typically takes a couple of weeks.
What's the difference between a personal token and an organization token?
Personal tokens are tied to the user who created them and expire if that person leaves your company. Organization tokens aren't tied to an individual, so they don't expire, though they can't be used to sign contracts. See Authentication for details on both.
