We have a couple of issues that would be solved by getting direct access to the Chariot api and pulling in donations directly from there
- we are missing information to link incoming PayPal Grants payments to the contributions entered in Civi
- @Lars is working with @MDemosWMF on a Chariot import which has some challenges
On discussing with Melanie it seems that DAFs are being consolidated into Chariot so it makes sense to get this working properly
Looking at Chariot they appear to have a mature api https://docs.givechariot.com/api - and if we could get access we can pull in directly. There has been some suggesting that it gets to us via Gravy but from an fr-tech point of view using the Chariot api directly is almost certainly going to be less work with more control / options so I would really like us to, as a first step, get api credentials set up - @EMartin are you OK with requesting Chariot api credentials so we can explore what we can get this way?
