  title: Donately Accounts People API
  description: 'The Donately API is a REST/JSON API for online donation and fundraising management. It exposes accounts, campaigns, donations, recurring subscriptions, people (donors), fundraisers, forms, and webhooks. Base URL https://api.donately.com/v2 (API version 2019-03-15). Requests are authenticated with an API token via HTTP Basic Auth (the token is base64-encoded with a trailing colon); the token is found in the Donately dashboard under Settings -> API. Most endpoints require an account_id parameter identifying which account to operate against. NOTE: Donately''s reference renders as a JavaScript single-page app that could not be fully crawled; endpoints confirmed from documentation and third-party connectors are marked as such, and the remainder are modeled on Donately''s Stripe-style REST conventions - verify exact paths against developer.donately.com/api.'

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Donately People API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
