Drift REST API covers contacts, users, conversations and messages, accounts, playbooks, teams, app admin tokens, data privacy (GDPR retrieval and deletion), and SCIM provisioning. Webhook events deliver realtime conversation, contact, and message updates. Authentication uses OAuth, App Admin Tokens, and signed identities as documented at devdocs.drift.com.
