Clari Install Auth

Clari Install & Auth

Overview

Set up Clari API access for exporting forecast data, pipeline snapshots, and revenue intelligence to your data warehouse. Clari uses API key authentication via the apikey header, with the primary API at api.clari.com/v4/.

Prerequisites

• Clari enterprise account with API access enabled
• Admin or RevOps role for API key generation
• Target data warehouse (Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift) for exports

Instructions

Step 1: Generate API Token

1. Log in to Clari at https://app.clari.com
2. Navigate to User Settings > API Token
3. Click Generate New API Token
4. Copy and store the token securely

# Store securely -- never commit
export CLARI_API_KEY="your-api-token-here"

# Verify the key works
curl -s -H "apikey: ${CLARI_API_KEY}" \
  https://api.clari.com/v4/export/forecast/list \
  | jq '.forecasts | length'

Step 2: Configure Environment

# .env -- NEVER commit this file
CLARI_API_KEY=your-api-token
CLARI_BASE_URL=https://api.clari.com/v4
CLARI_ORG_ID=your-org-id

# .gitignore
.env
.env.local

Step 3: Test API Connectivity

import requests
import os

api_key = os.environ["CLARI_API_KEY"]
headers = {"apikey": api_key, "Content-Type": "application/json"}

# List available forecasts
response = requests.get(
    "https://api.clari.com/v4/export/forecast/list",
    headers=headers,
)
response.raise_for_status()

forecasts = response.json()["forecasts"]
for fc in forecasts:
    print(f"  {fc['forecastName']} (ID: {fc['forecastId']})")

Step 4: Copilot API Setup (Optional)

Clari Copilot (conversation intelligence) has a separate API:

# Copilot uses OAuth2 -- different from the forecast API
# Register at https://api-doc.copilot.clari.com

export CLARI_COPILOT_CLIENT_ID="your-client-id"
export CLARI_COPILOT_CLIENT_SECRET="your-client-secret"

# Get access token
curl -X POST https://api.copilot.clari.com/oauth/token \
  -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \
  -d "client_id=${CLARI_COPILOT_CLIENT_ID}" \
  -d "client_secret=${CLARI_COPILOT_CLIENT_SECRET}"
