Laravel Package for accessing the Keap REST API (v1/v2)

Let's be honest, the php-infusionsoft SDK is shit. Barely any support for modern version of PHP and all the laravel packages, such as the upwebdesign one, that has been the main inspiration for this package, rely on the old architecture and legacy version of the Infusionsoft API.

I jump in to ensure a Laravel 10+ support for this package that completely ignores the PHP SDK and builds it's own wrapper using Laravel helpers and architectures.

This package uses OAuth 2 with the REST API v1 or v2 of Keap, WITHOUT relying on the SDK of infusionsoft.

You can find a whole website with the documentation for this package at in the wiki.

Installation

To install this package, we need to install the Laravel part and create the API credentials to connect to your Keap Application.

Laravel set up

To install the package you can use the following command

composer require keapgeek/laravel-keap

then install the package to publish the configuration

php artisan keap:install

In the environment file add the following lines

KEAP_CLIENT_KEY="Client from the developer account"
KEAP_CLIENT_SECRET="Secret from the developer account"

Keap set up

Before we start installing the package, we need to create a Keap developer account and get our API credentials.

For more information look at the Keap documentation: visit the complete Installation Guide

In shorts the steps are repeated here below:

  • Create a Developer Account
  • Generate the Api Keys
  • Authenticate

First Use

After installation and having setup the environment variables in the .env file. You can access the /keap/auth uri in your browser, even in the local version, to access the login page of Keap. Once logged in you can authorize the access to a specific app.

I strongly suggest to use a sandbox version of Keap, and test your Api before connecting it to your real app with your clients data.

Automatically Keap will redirect you to a confirmation page that will simply say Successful Connection!. From there you can start using the Laravel Keap service.

Automatically refresh the Oath token

Keap will transmit an access and refresh token that are stored in the cache, therefore pay attention when you clear it.

The refresh code can be used only for 24 hours. However, you can refresh the code with the artisan command

php artisan keap:refresh

You can set up this command in the Console\Kernel.php file to run twice or thrice a day to prevent the code from expiring.

    protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule): void
    {
        // Other scheduled commands
        $schedule->command('keap:refresh')->twiceDaily(1, 13);
    }

Accessing the API

To access the REST API, you can use the Keap Facade:

use KeapGeek\Keap\Facades\Keap;

// To list all the contacts the contacts
Keap::contact()->list;

// To create a new tag
Keap::tag()->create(...);

The methods of the Keap Facade allow you to automatically call the API endpoints.

A list of all the available methods are can be found in the API Docs

Testing

composer test
