The full step-by-step, with screenshots.
- a MyUnisoft account with access to Paramètres > Connecteurs dossier or Connecteurs cabinet, to generate their API token. Connecteurs dossier covers a single folder, Connecteurs cabinet the whole firm.
- access to the accounting folders they want to connect
- in MyUnisoft, open Connecteurs dossier or Connecteurs cabinet and click the card for your app. The card is named Chift, or after your own app if you registered your own key.
- click Générer, then copy the token before closing the window. The token is shown once.
- enter the token in the connection form
- optionally select the accounting folders to connect. Left empty, the connection covers every folder they have access to.
- choose whether to retrieve analytic accounting data, with Analytic accounting
- if analytic accounting is active, choose the Analytic Code to use by default. When the folder list is shown, this list appears once the folder step is done. See Connection.
Rate limits
MyUnisoft applies a fixed quota with a concurrency cap, per API token. Each end-user connection has its own token.
Some import and export endpoints count as several requests, to limit abuse.
When a limit is exceeded, MyUnisoft returns HTTP
429 Too Many Requests with the error code above. The response also carries the X-Rate-Limit-Remaining, X-Rate-Limit-Reset and X-Rate-Limit-Total headers.
Chift retries automatically on 429, up to 6 times with exponential backoff. Chift automatically manages these limits to optimize performance and prevent interruptions. However, once the API rate limit is reached, Chift cannot bypass these limitations.
See MyUnisoft’s rate limit documentation.
