About This Integration

Does Empower have a developer API?

Empower does not provide a publicly available developer API for external customers or third-party developers. While the platform utilizes internal APIs to support its financial dashboard and other services, these APIs are not documented or made accessible for programmatic use. Empower’s focus remains on offering its services through its proprietary tools and personalized advisory offerings rather than enabling integrations or external developer access. Instead, you can use the integration provided by SnapTrade to get access to Empower account data.

What’s Available on the Empower API with SnapTrade?

By integrating your app with SnapTrade, you’ll get:

• OAuth Access
  Secure authentication for your users, allowing them to link their Empower accounts without sharing their login credentials.
• Long Lived Connections
  Maintain persistent connections to user accounts, reducing friction and minimizing the need for repeated authentication.
• Account Balances and Portfolio Data
  Retrieve essential financial details such as overall account balances, net worth data, and a snapshot of users’ holdings.

Can I Use the Empower API for Trading?
