Overview and basic information

API

Affiliate partners have access to an API (application programming interface) that they can use to automatically
check information about their commission account, arrivals, orders, and commissions.

Thanks to the API, you can connect the affiliate system to your application, internal system
, or automate the monitoring of new events in your commission account.

The API is designed for more advanced integration and automation.

What can be obtained using the API

basic information about the partner account and commission status
partner method

advertiser dial in the commission system
advertisers method

product catalog including current commission rates
method products

list of partner text campaigns
method campaigns

list of advertising spaces of the partner
method boards

list of arrivals (clicks)
method entries

list of mediated orders
method orders

movements on the advance account (commissions, bonuses, payments)

Methods for obtaining lists have common input parameters and a uniform output data structure,
including support for pagination and filtering.
For details, see the documentation in the API – Lists section.

How to activate API access

You can activate API access after logging in to the partner administration section at
Account, settings – API settings.

Here you can generate an API key, which works similarly to a password
and is used to authenticate requests.

You can create multiple API keys and restrict each of them to specific IP addresses if necessary.

Communication with API

Communication with the API takes place exclusively via HTTPS using the GET method.
Some methods accept parameters directly in the URL (GET parameters).
Responses are returned in JSON format.

Partner authentication is performed using special HTTP headers,
, which contain the API key ID and the API key itself.

You can find a detailed description in the documentation in the section
Basics of communication and authentication.

API Restrictions

Maximum of 1,000 requests per hour
from a single IP address

Maximum of 1,000 requests per hour
per partner

If you are planning intensive integration, take these limits into account when designing your application.
