Chord CDP Ingest API is one of 3 APIs that [Chord](https://apis.io/providers/chord-commerce/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Event Tracking, CDP, Customer Data Platform, and Event. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and authentication docs.

The HTTP ingest surface of the Chord customer data platform. Backend systems POST track and identify events to /api/track and /api/identify, authenticated with a per-source write key (X-Write-Key header preferred). Chord publishes a full canonical event catalog — order, shipment, subscription and user server events plus a browser tracking plan — and documents its delivery semantics unusually thoroughly: at-least-once delivery, a stable messageId carried end to end, exponential-backoff retries and a dead-letter queue. Ingest is deliberately permissive: the tracking plan is a convention, not a schema validator, and custom events pass through unmodified.
