Ordergroove's integration with Klaviyo has been updated to include OAuth. Klaviyo OAuth is the enhanced authentication method for integrating with Klaviyo, offering higher API rate limits and improved security. In this article we'll go through the details and how to set it up.
What is Klaviyo OAuth?
Klaviyo OAuth is an upgraded method of authentication for connecting to the Klaviyo platform. The OAuth authentication flow replaces the older token-based system, enabling more reliable and powerful integration with Klaviyo's marketing features.
Benefits
There are three major benefits over tokens:
Higher API Rate Limits: With OAuth, your integration will have its own dedicated API limit of 3500 requests per minute. This prevents throttling issues caused by multiple integrations sharing the same pool of requests. In practical terms, this means your marketing messages and campaigns will be delivered more consistently without delays, even during peak traffic times.
Improved Security: OAuth is a more secure authentication method than token-based systems. Instead of sharing long-lived API tokens, OAuth uses short-lived access tokens with automatic refresh. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access and allows better control over permissions and access rights.
Improved Service Reliability: Enjoy faster, more consistent delivery of your marketing messages, even during peak times, thanks to your dedicated API pipeline.
