Importing .csv files is slow and the time lapse of data from Just Giving means there is a delay in communicating with our supporters. A direct API call for charities would be much more efficient and help charities give up to date communication. This lean forward approach would highly likely be beneficial for both charities and yourselves.
Hi Matthew,
Pleased to say that we offer that very solution already. It's our Data API and is detailed here.
https://justgivingdeveloper.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/sections/201239392-Data-APIs
The Data API is a private API for use by
Charities
CRM software providers offering a service to charities
The API returns the data charities traditionally download from their JustGiving charity account in XML or JSON format. The data sets include
Payment Report (Donations only)
Payment Report (Gift Aid only)
Fundraising Pages Created Report
The API also allows a charity to SET or GET custom codes to given events or fundraising pages
