  title: Customer.io App Activities Identify API
  description: The Customer.io App API enables developers to manage workspace resources and send messages programmatically. It provides endpoints for sending transactional messages, triggering broadcasts, managing customers and segments, retrieving campaign and newsletter data, and exporting customer information. The API uses bearer token authentication with an App API key and is designed for operations that go beyond data ingestion, such as retrieving metrics, managing message templates, and automating outbound communications from Customer.io.
