These instructions refer to the first form of integration with Addepar, which used an API Key and a ViewID. The newest and preferred integration uses a new Query API, and support for OAuth 2.0. Please refer to Enabling the Addepar Integration for instruction on the new integration method.
Integration summary
Our integration with Addepar allows you to keep your Practifi Assets & Holdings in sync with Addepar's Accounts & Holdings. From the Addepar Portfolio page on the client record in Practifi, you can link that client with an Addepar Entity. This synchronises the two records as shown in the table below:
Practifi |
Addepar |

Asset |
🠜 Daily |

Holding |
