Property Management APIs

The Property Management Software Landscape

The property management industry runs on a handful of dominant platforms: AppFolio, Yardi Voyager, Buildium, Rent Manager, Propertyware, and others. These systems power everything from rent collection and tenant screening to maintenance workflows and GL accounting for millions of rental units nationwide.

AppFolio alone serves over 7.7 million rental units. Yardi manages portfolios for some of the largest REITs in the world. Buildium and Rent Manager round out the mid-market. Each platform holds enormous amounts of operational and financial data that property managers, owners, and service providers need to access programmatically.

The problem? Getting that data out is rarely straightforward.

The Property Management API Challenge

Despite the critical importance of the data they hold, most property management platforms make programmatic access difficult:

• Limited or one-way APIs: Many platforms offer only data export endpoints, restricting bidirectional integration and real-time synchronization. When APIs do exist, they often cover only a fraction of the data available in the platform's own UI.
• Restrictive partnership programs: Official integration marketplaces frequently exclude entire categories — rent payments, tenant screening, renters insurance — from their partner programs, limiting what third-party developers can build.
• High entry barriers: Minimum unit counts and steep monthly minimums can exclude smaller property managers and early-stage proptech companies from accessing official APIs altogether.
• Data silos across surfaces: Critical features and real-time data often exist in a platform's mobile apps or internal dashboards that aren't exposed through any documented API, creating blind spots for integrators.
• Complex authentication and security layers: Enterprise-grade security including MFA, session management, and rotating tokens complicates any automated access — even when an API technically exists.

These challenges aren't unique to any single vendor. They're structural to the property management software category, and they create a massive gap between what data exists in these systems and what data you can actually use.

How Supergood Solves Property Management Integrations

Supergood builds and maintains production-ready REST APIs that give you programmatic access to the operational and financial data inside your property management platform.

Our approach handles the hard parts: authentication flows including comprehensive MFA support, active session management with automatic token refresh, and continuous monitoring so your integration keeps working even as platforms update their systems. The result is reliable, real-time access to the data your team needs — without building and maintaining brittle custom integrations in-house.

We support integrations across the property management ecosystem, working with the platforms where your data actually lives.

Common Endpoint Categories

The specific endpoints available depend on the property management platform being integrated. Below are the categories of data and operations Supergood typically supports:

Authentication & Session Management

Secure authentication handling including MFA support (SMS, authenticator apps), automatic token refresh, and continuous session maintenance. Supergood manages credentials through both managed service accounts and customer-provided credentials.

Financial Management

• Creating and recording bank deposits
• Generating journal entries for accounting transactions
• Creating tenant charges (rent, utilities, fees, assessments)
• Recording tenant payments and generating receipts
• Retrieving bank accounts, cash accounts, and GL accounts
• Accessing journal-specific GL accounts for advanced workflows

Property and Tenant Operations

• Real-time occupancy data across properties and units
• Receivable payment details for deposit reconciliation
• Tenant receipt history and payment records
• Tenant search with advanced filtering and sorting
• User account and permission data
• Property search with custom criteria

Example: Authentication

curl -X POST https://api.supergood.ai/integrations/89e4dffe-4624-4ce9-bcf2-4e8686d157be/auth \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "domain": "your_pms_platform", "email": "your_username", "password": "your_password" }'

{
  "authToken": "abcdefg..."
}

Supergood handles all MFA challenges (Email, SMS, authenticator apps) automatically.

Example: Retrieving GL Accounts

curl -X GET https://api.supergood.ai/integrations/89e4dffe-4624-4ce9-bcf2-4e8686d157be/sync \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sg_live_abc123..."

{
  "gl_accounts": [
    {
      "id": "4010",
      "name": "Rental Income",
      "type": "revenue",
      "balance": 284750
    },
    {
      "id": "5020",
      "name": "Maintenance Expense",
      "type": "expense",
      "balance": 12340.5
    }
  ]
}

Example: Searching Tenants

curl -X POST https://api.supergood.ai/integrations/89e4dffe-4624-4ce9-bcf2-4e8686d157be/sync \
  -H "Authorization: Basic ..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "property_id": "prop_8842", "status": "active", "balance_due_min": 0 }'

{
  "tenants": [
    {
      "id": "ten_29301",
      "name": "Jane Smith",
      "unit": "Unit 204",
      "lease_end": "2026-03-31",
      "balance_due": 1250
    }
  ],
  "total_results": 47,
  "page": 1
}

Example: Creating a Tenant Charge

curl -X POST https://api.supergood.ai/integrations/89e4dffe-4624-4ce9-bcf2-4e8686d157be/sync \
  -H "Authorization: Basic ..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "tenant_id": "ten_29301", "charge_type": "rent", "amount": 2150.00, "due_date": "2025-11-01", "description": "November 2025 Rent" }'

{
  "status": "created",
  "charge_id": "chg_88412",
  "tenant_id": "ten_29301",
  "amount": 2150,
  "due_date": "2025-11-01"
}

Example: Pulling Occupancy Data

curl -X GET https://api.supergood.ai/integrations/89e4dffe-4624-4ce9-bcf2-4e8686d157be/sync \
  -H "Authorization: Basic ..."

{
  "property_id": "prop_8842",
  "total_units": 120,
  "occupied": 112,
  "vacant": 8,
  "occupancy_rate": 0.933,
  "units": [
    {
      "unit": "Unit 101",
      "status": "occupied",
      "tenant_id": "ten_20145",
      "lease_end": "2026-01-15"
    },
    {
      "unit": "Unit 102",
      "status": "vacant",
      "market_rent": 1850,
      "days_vacant": 12
    }
  ]
}
