How Tack Tools Pro Connects to Thumbtack
Tack Tools Pro is an official Thumbtack integration partner using Thumbtack's Partner API with OAuth 2.0 authorization. No passwords stored, no scraping, no browser automation — just a secure, Thumbtack-approved connection.
Official Partner API
Approved by Thumbtack's partnerships team. Listed on the Thumbtack Apps page.
OAuth 2.0 Authorization
Industry-standard auth flow. Your Thumbtack password never touches our system.
AES-256 Encryption
All connection tokens encrypted at rest. Row-level data isolation per account.
How the OAuth Connection Works
You sign up at tacktoolspro.com
Create your account with email and password. No Thumbtack credentials needed at this stage.
Click "Connect Thumbtack" in the onboarding wizard
You're redirected to Thumbtack's own authorization page at auth.thumbtack.com — not a Tack Tools Pro page.
Review permissions and click "Allow Access"
Thumbtack shows you exactly what Tack Tools Pro is requesting access to. You control what gets shared.
Thumbtack issues secure tokens to Tack Tools Pro
An OAuth 2.0 access token and refresh token are issued by Thumbtack directly. Your password never passes through our system.
Tack Tools Pro registers for real-time lead webhooks
Using the official Thumbtack webhooks API, we register to receive your leads the moment they arrive on Thumbtack.
Leads flow through automatically
When a new lead arrives, Thumbtack sends it to Tack Tools Pro via webhook. We fire Live Connect, Rapid Reply, and Tack Voicemail within 27 seconds.
