API

Often you need to get data from your tracker for additional scripts, services, automation. For this we implemented API that displays any data from tracker in a convenient JSON format. Functions for processing this format are in any common programming language.

Working with API in our tracker is simple. First go to the Settings (top menu on the right). At the bottom of the page find API and copy the &api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXX parameter.

Then go to any report (for campaigns or landas), add this parameter to the URL and load this URL. You will see all the same data as in the report, but in JSON format.

Reports for campaigns, lands, offers and sources

For example, we need to get information about our campaigns. Let’s open Campaigns page and display the Test group's campaigns with traffic for last 7 days.

Then add to the URL our api_key - &api_key=1000001a768088356b266709102e84d50bcf4c6 and will see following data:
[{
"id":"10",
"status":"1",
"name":"Test Camp",
"date_cr":"1458474310",
"keyword":"676zlthzbiagiyetab8v",
"group_id":"2",
"group_name":"Test",
"ts":"Test",
"ts_id":"2",
"start_date":"1458470766",
"clicks":"2038",
"bots":0,
"profit":"-11.28000",
"ROI":"-55.348380765",
"LP_CTR":"0.0000",
"leads":"92",
"CR":"4.5142",
"EPC":"0.004465161",

"auto_cpc":0,
"link":"http:\/\/\/tracker.com\/click.php?camp_id=10&key=676zlthzbiagiyetab8v&creative={creative}"
}]

In general, most of the parameters have clear meaning. But, just in case, we will analyze them all.

12 - custom date with an additional query, form &date_s=2016-07-05&date_e=2016-07-06, value format [YYYY]-[MM]-[DD]

This API function changes in 1.9.
The changes concern names of columns and some filters.

Campaign report

For example, let’s display a report for our test campaign, according to the landings.

By adding the &api_key parameter to the URL, we will get the following data:

[{
"level":"1",
"name":"test123321",
"clicks":"2,038",
"offer_clicks":"0",
"lp_ctr":"0.00%",
"leads":"92",
"cr":"4.51%",
"epc":"0.0045",
"cpc":"0.0100",
"revenue":"9.10",
"cost":"20.38",
"profit":"-11.28",
"roi":"-55.35%"
}]

Each parameter except Level clearly corresponds to the report column, as well as the output. There are separators between digits of numbers and % of numbers. Level - is the level of the row in the multi-level report.

Just like in the campaign report, you can change the URL parameters.

FILTERS APPLICATION

Our tracker allows you to apply saved filters for reports. For example, you can get a ready-made blacklist for your campaign. To do this, create and save a filter on the report page of any campaign - it will appear in the list of saved filters. Next to his name will be a digit. Remember it.

Add the &fid=N parameter, where N is the filter number in your API URL for the campaign statistics and you will receive a filtered report.

Response to an attempt to restore (offer_resore) for non-existent offer will be {"error":"Object not found"}
