# How to import Arive loans into Leaf360 using Direct API

> A written walkthrough of the video showing how to pull your Arive loans into Leaf360 once you're connected using the Direct API method.

This is the written version of a short video showing how to import your Arive loans into Leaf360 once a **Direct API** connection is set up. If you're connecting through Zapier instead, that's covered in a separate video.

Prefer to watch it instead? Here's the video:

## Importing your loans

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Direct API settings">
    In Leaf360, click **Account Settings** (bottom left), then head to **Data and Integrations**, then **Integrations**. Open **Arive** and select the **Direct API** option.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter your Arive credentials">
    Provide your Arive **Portal URL**, **Client ID**, **Client Secret**, and **Client API Key** — you'll need to get these from your settings in Arive. A help doc linked below the video shows where to find them if you don't have them yet. Once everything's filled in, click **Save API Credentials**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Provide your LOS email alias if needed">
    Another thing to make sure of: provide your LOS email alias if your Leaf360 login email is different from your Arive login email. For example, if your Leaf360 login is `nicholas@leaf360.com` but your Arive email is `nicholasmora@gmail.com`, you'll want to put that Arive email in as your LOS email alias, so it matches correctly when Leaf360 is pulling your loans.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Subscribe to webhook events">
    Once connected, subscribe to all events so updates between Arive and Leaf360 stay in sync.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select your loans">
    Go to the **Loans** tab and click the checkbox next to **ID** to select the loans you want to bring over.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sync to Leaf360">
    Click **Sync to Leaf360**. This pulls all of the matching data from Arive over into Leaf360, and the loan is ready to work.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  For what data actually comes across on a synced loan and the two status mapping tabs, see the full [Arive](/integrations/arive) reference page.
