local network Organizations can now use Nextdoor’s self-service portal to access its application programming interface (API) options and establish connections with prospective clients.
The company said in a news statement on Friday, December 8, that the new Nextdoor Developer Site is made for developers, small businesses, brands, and enterprises and provides them with access to APIs that are concentrated on content and advertising.
“With our APIs, partners have the opportunity to serve locally relevant content to a highly engaged audience, as well as measure the results of their efforts,” Heidi Andersen, chief revenue and marketing officer at Nextdoor, said in the release. “We’re excited to continue to expand our API solutions and connect partners with the people, communities and customers that matter to them.”
According to the news release, one of Nextdoor’s products, the Campaign Management and Conversion API (CAPI), gives companies complete visibility into both online and offline conversions so they can more accurately calculate the return on investment (ROI) of their Nextdoor media campaigns.
According to the announcement, two more technologies assist businesses in expanding their audience. GoFundMe users may raise awareness of neighborhood issues on Nextdoor with the help of the Share Plugin, and public agency clients can schedule, share, and geotarget their articles using Publish AI.

“As the neighborhood network, Nextdoor is where millions of verified neighbors, small businesses and public agencies gather to discuss local information, exchange goods and services, and build community,” the press release said. “Through the suite of Advertising and Content APIs on the Developer Site, partners can harness Nextdoor’s distinct local network to reach and activate neighbors (…).”
