For rental listings you receive via our FTP/XML feed, you can add an "Apply Now" button that takes an applicant straight to the correct ApplySafe tenancy application form — without us needing to give you a separate list of application URLs to maintain.
The link works per listing, and is built from two values: the listing's unique ID (already in your feed) and the CRM account ID (provided to you separately by each agency — see below).

Link Format
The link format will look like the following:
| ID | Description |
| REMOTE_ID | The uniqueID field already present in each <rental> entry in the XML feed. No extra mapping needed on your side; it's the same value you're already parsing from the feed today. |
| ACCOUNT_ID | The fixed identifier for the CRM account/agency the feed came from. This does not appear in the XML feed itself, so it needs to be supplied to you once per agency (see next section). |
Example
For the account bc9c23cc-1a49-484e-9e8a-e5e8afb0c7e7 and a listing with uniqueID of 12345:
Following this link redirects to the correct ApplySafe application form for that specific listing.
Getting The Account ID From Each Agency
Since you're receiving feeds from multiple separate CRM accounts, you'll need each agency to provide their own account_id once. Ask each agency to:
- Log into Grow CRM.
- Click the account name (next to the Grow CRM switcher).
- Click Account Settings.
- On the side menu, click ApplySafe.
- Click Third Party Website Integration.
- Click the field under "how does the external provider receive listings".
- Select FTP/XML Feed from the dropdown.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the screen.
- Click Copy Instructions.
The agency can now send you the copied text. The page they copied the text from pre-fills their real account ID into the link format above, so there's no risk of a typo or mismatch — they just copy and forward it to you.
