Connect Pipedrive to Elido

The Pipedrive integration creates a deal in your chosen pipeline when one of your links reaches a click milestone. API-token based — no OAuth, no app registration.

Get your Pipedrive API token

1. Log into Pipedrive.
2. Click your avatar → Personal preferences → API.
3. Copy the token shown. It's a 40-character hex string. Don't confuse it with an OAuth client secret — this is the personal token tied to your account.

Configure in Elido

1. Go to Dashboard → Integrations → Pipedrive.
2. Paste the API token and click Validate. Elido checks the token and lists every pipeline your account can see.
3. Select the target pipeline.
4. Save.

What Elido creates

A background check runs every 5 minutes. The first time a link's click count reaches 100, 1,000 or 10,000, Elido creates one deal in the selected pipeline, titled Engagement: <slug> (<N> clicks), with value 0. Each (link, milestone) pair creates a deal only once, so re-checks never duplicate it. Because of the 5-minute interval, a deal can appear a few minutes after the milestone is crossed.

What doesn't sync

• Conversions and scan failures — these don't create deals yet (see the Planned note above).
• Existing deals — Elido never edits or moves deals, only creates new ones.
• Pipedrive → Elido — outbound only. Deal stage changes in Pipedrive don't affect Elido links.

Troubleshooting

"401 Unauthorized" — The API token is wrong. Confirm it by calling this in a browser:

https://api.pipedrive.com/v1/users/me?api_token=TOKEN

If you see your user profile, the token is valid.

Pipeline not in the list — Your Pipedrive user may not have access to that pipeline. Pipedrive's visibility settings can restrict pipeline access by team. Check with your Pipedrive admin.

Deal owner — Deals are created under the user whose API token you used. Choosing a different owner in Elido is not available yet.

Several deals for one link — That is expected: one deal per milestone (100, 1,000, 10,000 clicks).
