The Rapleaf API, a core component Rapleaf, allows any company or developer to access information on a person and include that in their own site. Such information includes memberships, reputation, and demographic info.
We’re excited to release the Rapleaf Address Book API. It is super easy to use and can help any site increase its reach by allowing users to import their contacts into your site, and further benefit from portable social graphs.
The Address Book API allows you to:
- Ask your users for their email login credentials (for Gmail, Yahoo!, AOL, Hotmail/MSN)
- Securely pass the credentials to the Rapleaf Address Book API
- Obtain the names and email addresses of all the contacts in that person’s address book
It’s all free and really easy to use. User’s privacy is guarded and password information is never stored.
You can find the Address Book API documentation here: http://www.rapleaf.com/apidoc/v2/abook
p.s. - Combine the Address Book API with the Rapleaf Person API to get social network memberships and demographics of each email in that address book.
