Steps Generate a Census API key from your Census account settings. Identify the numeric sync ID you want to trigger from the Census UI or via GET /api/v1/syncs. POST to https://app.getcensus.com/api/v1/syncs/YOUR_SYNC_ID/trigger with Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY and Content-Type application/json. Parse the response for the sync_run_id field to track the triggered run. Poll GET /api/v1/syncs/YOUR_SYNC_ID/sync_runs/YOUR_SYNC_RUN_ID to monitor status until it reaches a completed or failed state. Check the error_message field in the final response if the run did not complete successfully. Known gotchas Triggering a sync while a previous run is still in progress may be rejected or queued depending on your Census plan and sync configuration. The sync ID and sync run ID are distinct numeric identifiers — use the correct one for each API endpoint. Census API responses use snake_case field names; ensure your JSON parser preserves case when extracting run IDs and status values.
