API – Finding Loan and Customer IDs

Updated 3 weeks ago by Jackson Stone

Find a loan or customer ID to put in the endpoint of your API requests.

When using the LoanPro API, you send requests to a specific URL, or endpoint. The endpoint for each loan or customer is unique to them, and you'll be unable to retrieve or update information without it.

This article will explain the simplest way to get the ID for a single loan or customer: through the URL in the LoanPro user interface.

Loan IDs

First, login to loanpro.io and search for the loan you want. Once you click on it, the loan ID will be visible in the URL.

For this loan, the loan ID is 8890.

The loan ID is different from the loan display ID, which is shown in the header (In this picture, the loan display ID is L000212). The loan display ID is set by users when they create or import a loan, and refers to your own recordkeeping system. The loan ID, on the other hand, is set automatically by the system when a loan is created. This is the ID used for all requests with the API.

Customer IDs

If the customer is already linked to the loan, you can find their customer ID from within the loan. In the navigation window on the left, click Customer, and then the name of the customer. The loan and customer IDs will both be in the URL.

Customers that aren't Linked to a Loan

If you customer is not yet linked to a loan you can instead find them in Users > Customer Manager. Search for your customer, select them, and then look at the URL.
