Partner keys

You can use Chift’s app, or register your own with Cegid.

Use Chift's app

Ask your Chift point of contact for Chift’s subscription key. No developer account needed.

Use your own app

Contact your Cegid account manager to get listed as a Cegid Loop partner and receive your own subscription key. End users see your listing, instead of Chift’s, when they generate their API key.
Get the subscription key from your Cegid referent, or subscribe to Cegid Developers - APIs Cegid Loop in CegidLife and create it under Subscription on developers.cegid.com.

Cegid Loop setup guide for end users

The full step-by-step, with screenshots.
Before they start, your end users need:
  • administrator access to their firm’s CegidLife portal, to generate an APIKey Standard and set it in LoopHub
  • the accounting folder they want to connect
The APIKey Standard is made of a key and a client secret. On the LoopHub, they pick your listed partner name, or the default Cegid Loop APIs Standard option if you are not listed. To connect, they:
  • name the connection
  • choose whether to activate analytic accounting
  • enter their API key and secret key
  • select the accounting folder to connect, unless you turned off folder selection

Rate limits

No rate limit documented by Cegid.

​
Limitations & specificities

Contact codes are unique across clients and suppliers. Cegid Loop refuses to create a client if a supplier already uses the same code, and vice versa.
  • Journal entries are imported asynchronously. Chift polls for the import status before returning.
  • The entry comes back as a draft: status is draft and posted is false.
  • On invoices without analytic accounting, lines sharing the same account, contact and description are grouped together.
An entry is rejected if its date falls outside an existing fiscal period, or inside a period that is already closed.
The journal must be of type financial operation, and the counterpart account must match the one defined on the journal.
