Test&Target API

Audit Report
The Campaign Audit Report API lets you programmatically extract audit report data for a single campaign.
You can retrieve audit report data for off-line analysis, permanent storage, or to build a custom reporting interface.
Note: T&T stores audit data for 4 weeks only. To preserve it, use the Campaign Audit Report API or the Admin interface
to store it in a secondary location.
Create the URL
For each operation add the parameters and values you need as a filter. For example:
https://testandtarget.omniture.com/api?client=acme&email=john@acme.com&
password=mypassword&operation=auditReport&campaignId=1234&start=2007-08-01T00:00&
end=2007-09-01T00:00&step=step1&environment=production&format=csv&version=1

Parameter

(Required) The Email address associated with the T&T user performing the operation.
(Required) The T&T password associated with the specified email address.
(Required) Identifies the type of T&T action to execute. To generate audit reports, this value is always
auditReport.
(Required) The ID of the campaign you want to query. To identify the Campaign List ID, Use the
Campaign List API or look at the campaignDescriptionId parameter in the URL when
viewing a campaign in the T&T Tool.
(Required) The report start date and time. Specify the date using the following format:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm. The performance report uses the time zone setting specified in the Web
browser.
(Required) The report end date and time. Specify the date using the following format:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm. The performance report uses the time zone setting specified in the Web
browser.
(Optional) The URL-encoded success metric name (formerly called a step). By default, the step value
is last step.
(Required) A URL-encoded host group name, as defined in the T&T Tool. By default, the environment
value is Production.

Test&Target API

Parameter
format

version

Description
(Optional) The report output format. Currently, the only supported value for this parameter is csv
(comma-separated value).
Specify which version of the API you want to use. Set this to version=1 unless there is a different
version described in the documentation.

Note: Parameters and values are case sensitive.


Inspect the Query Response
T&T generates the audit report in CSV format, which you can import into any spreadsheet program, such as Microsoft* Excel*.
For example:
"Campaign: landing campaign RFM"
"Downloaded at: 2007-08-24. Time zone: EST5EDT"
"Step: Conversion"
"Campaign Id","Recipe","Order Date","Order Time","Order
Ids"

Parse the Query Response


Optionally, you can use a scripting language, such as Perl, Python, and Ruby, to programmatically manipulate the audit report
contents to create custom reports.

Bulk Profile Update


The Bulk Profile Update API lets you batch profile update requests.
Using Bulk Profile Update
1. Create a batch file like the following example:
batch=pcId, param1, param2, param3
1000000000000-100000.01, value1, value2, valueeeeeee
1000000000000-100000.01, value1, value3, valueeeeeee
1367320065048-801944.01_00, value1, value6, valueeeeeee
1000000000000-100000.01, value1, value6, valueeeeeee

2. curl -X POST --data-binary @batch http://mboxedge/m2/demo/profile/batchUpdate


Create the URL
For each operation add the parameters and values necessary to batch profile updates in a T&T campaign.

Test&Target API

Note: This is a SOAP API and not a REST API like the other Target APIs.
For example, use the following URL, substituting the appropriate value for each of the URL parameters:
https://client.tt.omtrdc.net/m2/client/profile/batchUpdate

Parameter
batch

Description
(Required) batch content sent in the POST content as "batch" parameter. The request should be a
POST. A batch is composed of the batch header followed by data. For example:
pcId, param1, param2, param3, param4
123, value1
124, value1,,,value4
125,,value2
126,value1,value2,value3,value4

Notes
Params and values must be URL-encoded using UTF-8
Param format is paramName only (it is not the current format: profile.paramName).
Not all parameter values need to exist for all pcIds.
ThirdPartyId is not supported.
Batch size is limited to 500k

Note: Parameters and values are case sensitive.


Inspect the Query Response
A response of <success>true</success> indicates a successful operation. T&T also returns a URL that clients can use to
retrieve the status of the batch and a message:
<response>
<success>true/false</success>
<batchStatus>http://mboxedge3.tt.omtrdc.net/demo/profile/batchStatus?batchId=demo-1234&mboxPC=0000000000000-000000.03_05</batchStatus>
<message>Error or success message</message>
</response>

success: status of the request, true or false.


batchStatus: URL where the batch status can be retrieved. If the success value is false, batchStatus is empty.
message: additional information regarding the status.
Batch Status
For each client, only the previous 10 statuses are stored, for a maximum of 24 hours.
The status response appears as follows:
<response>
<batchId>ID</batchId>
<status>incomplete or complete</status>
<batchSize>number of updates in the batch</batchSize>
<successfulUpdates>number of profiles that were updated</successfulUpdates>
<profilesNotFound> number of profiles that were not found</profilesNotFound>

Test&Target API

<failedUpdates>number of profiles that failed to update for some reason</failedUpdates>


</response>

Campaign Copy
The Campaign Copy API lets you create a new T&T campaign based on an existing source campaign.
Create the URL
For each operation add the parameters and values necessary to copy a T&T campaign. For example, use the following URL to
copy a T&T campaign, substituting the appropriate value for each of the URL parameters:
https://testandtarget.omniture.com/api?client=user&email=user1@acme.com
&password=pword&operation=copyCampaign&id=123&
thirdPartyId=extID501&new3rdPartyId=extID995&branch=2&segment=3&
action=approve&name=Name&version=1

Parameter
client
email
password
operation

id

thirdpartyId

new3rdPartyId

branch

segment

action

Description
(Required) The T&T client code.
(Required) The Email address associated with the T&T user performing the operation.
(Required) The T&T password associated with the specified email address.
(Required) Identifies the type of T&T action to execute. To change a T&T campaign state, this value
is always copyCampaign.
(Optional) The campaign ID of the campaign you want to copy. You must provide either id or
thirdPartyId to identify the source campaign.
(Optional) The third-party identifier associated with the source campaign. You must provide either
id or thirdPartyId to identify the source campaign.
(Optional) A third-party identifier to associate with the source campaign. If not provided, no
third-party ID is associated with the new campaign. If this value is the same as thirdPartyId, the
source campaign thirdPartyId is set to NULL.
(Optional) A comma-separated list of branch IDs to copy to the new campaign. If no list is specified,
all campaign branches are copied to the new campaign.
(Optional) The segment to promote as entry targeting conditions to add to the current list of campaign
entry conditions. If no segment is specified, the new campaign uses the same entry conditions as the
source campaign and copies all segments to the new campaign.
(Optional) When set to approve, T&T activates the new campaign and deactivates the source
campaign. Otherwise, T&T creates the new campaign but does not activate it; leaving the source
campaign active.

Test&Target API

Parameter
name

version

Description
The name of the new campaign. If not specified, the new campaign name is the name of the source
campaign with "(copy)" appended to the end of the name. For example, "campaign1" becomes
"campaign1 (copy)".
Specify which version of the API you want to use. Set this to version=1 unless there is a different
version described in the documentation.

Note: Parameters and values are case sensitive.


Inspect the Query Response
A response of 200 indicates a successful operation. T&T also returns the following information about the new campaign:
<campaign>
<id>newCampaignID</id>
<thirdPartyId>new3rdPartyID</thirdPartyId> //if defined
</campaign>

Campaign Create/Update
The Campaign Create API lets you create and update AB..N campaigns, landing page campaigns and optimizing campaigns
(optimized to RPV/AOV/Conversion Rate). You can add experiences, targets, and mboxes to the campaign during creation.
The Campaign Create API can also be used to update an existing campaign.
Notes
Monitoring Campaigns cannot be created using API.
Use the Campaign State API to change campaign state.
Create the URL
For each operation add the parameters and values necessary to create a T&T campaign. For example, use the following URL
substituting the appropriate value for each of the URL parameters:
https://testandtarget.omniture.com/api?client=user&email=user1@acme.com
&password=pword&version=1&operation=saveCampaign&thirdPartyId=extID501&version=1&campaign=<XML
HERE>

Parameter
client
email
password
operation

Description
(Required) The T&T client code.
(Required) The Email address associated with the T&T user performing the operation.
(Required) The T&T password associated with the specified email address.
(Required) Identifies the type of T&T action to execute. To create or update a T&T campaign, this
value is always saveCampaign.

Test&Target API

Parameter
campaignId

Description
(optional for create, either campaignId or thirdPartyId required for update) Without this parameter
present in the URL, a new campaign is created and assigned a campaignId. Otherwise, if a value is
present, it tries to find a campaign that has a matching, non-null campaignId and if found, updates
it.
If a valid campaignId and a valid thirdPartyId are both included, the thirdPartyId takes precedence.

thirdPartyId

(optional for create, either campaignId or thirdPartyId required for update) Without this parameter
present in the URL, a new campaign is created with a NULL thirdPartyId. Otherwise, if a value for
thirdPartyId is present, it tries to find a campaign that has a matching, non-null thirdPartyId and if
found, updates it. If a thirdPartyId is present in the URL, but no matching campaign is found, a new
campaign is created with the proper thirdPartyId value.
it is also possible to specify thirdPartyId in the campaign XML itself. After the campaign has been
created this way, it can then be updated subsequently by specifying the thirdPartyId parameter in
the URL to refer to this campaign.

oldBranchName

optimizingMetric

version

campaign

(Optional) Provide the old experience name when renaming an experience. "Branch" refers to
experience in this API.
(Optional) valid values are RPV, AOV, Conversion Rate (case sensitive). Including this
parameter/value creates an optimizing campaign rather than an A/B campaign.
Specify which version of the API you want to use. Set this to version=1 unless there is a different
version described in the documentation.
(required, UTF-8 URL-encoded XML): XML that defines the campaign.
Keep in mind the size of campaign XML; otherwise, a HTTP 414 (Request URI too long) will occur.
// To create the campaign:
<campaign>
<name>REST ABN Campaign (four branches with segments II)</name>
<thirdPartyId>adobeID</thirdPartyId>
<branches>
<branch>
...

A complete xml example is located in at the bottom of this article in the Demo Campaign XML
section.

Note: Parameters and values are case sensitive.


Query Response
A response of 200 indicates a successful operation. T&T also returns the following information about the new campaign:

Test&Target API

10

Create:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<campaign-create><result>createdsuccess</result><id>21</id></campaign-create>

Update:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<campaign-create><result>updatedsuccess</result><id>21</id></campaign-create>

Update a Campaign
To update an existing campaign, the URL is specified in the same format as described in Create the URL. However, instead of
providing a new thirdPartyId, you provide the thirdPartyId of the campaign that you want to update. Make sure that
the value of thirdPartyId parameter matches the one of the stored campaign you are trying to update; otherwise, a new
campaign is created instead.
You can update the following parts of a campaign:
Campaign name
Add/Delete target(s)
Rename URL parameter target name
Add/Delete experience(s)
Rename experience name (parameter 'oldBranchName' MUST be present in URL)
Add/Delete mbox(es) (you need to specify offers for the new mbox, otherwise you'll get a 404 error: 'You have mboxes with
no offers, please assign an offer for each mbox')
Rename mbox name
Add/Delete segments
Rename segments
Specify Campaign Type
By default the Campaign create API creates an A/B campaign. You can also specify a landing page instead by adding a <type>
parameter after <campaign>.
campaign><algorithm><type>Landing Page</type></algorithm>
<name>My campaign name</name>

Specify Start and End Dates and Times


You can specify start and end dates as follows, as children of the <campaign> root element:
<start>2012-03-20</start>
<end>2012-03-24</end>

The date format is yyyy-MM-dd without a timestamp. You can specify no set start and end date as follows:
<start>When Approved</start>
<end>When Deactivated</end>

If you do not provide a start or end date, the start date is set to the current date, and the end date is set to the current date plus
one month.
You can also set the time when the campaign starts or ends on the specified dates:
<start>2013-07-05T04:00</start>
<end>2013-08-05T16:00</end>

Test&Target API

Specify Percentage Targeting


You can specify percentage targeting as follows:
<branches>
<branch>
<name>Experience A</name>
<description/>
<percentConstraint>
<percent>30</percent>
</percentConstraint>
</branch>
</branches>

Specify Priority
The priority can be set as a child of the <campaign> root element:
<priority>High</priority>

Possible values are:


Monitoring
Low
Medium
High
Experience Impression Capping
Sets the number of impressions or visits that must be met before the specified action is exercised.
You can specify the following for all campaign experiences at the action level or they could be specified for every campaign
experience separately:
Visit count
Impression count
Action
The new step action will not currently be displayed in Campaign Edit UI.
If a campaign that has a step with experienceFrequencyCapping action set is edited the action should be preserved for step
(unless step was deleted etc)
The following XML snippet is used in campaign save action REST API for adding a step with an action:
<step>
<name>Success Metric 1</name>
<action type="countOnce"/>
<locations><location><mboxes><mbox><name>categoryPage</name></mbox></mboxes>
</location></locations>
</step>
action can contain one of the following types:

countOnce (default): count once


countLandings: Count landings, or clicks
alwaysConvert: always convert
restartSameExperience (default for conversion step): restart with the same experience
restartRandomExperience: restart with a different experience
restartNewExperience: restart with a new experience

11

Test&Target API

12

excludeSameExperience: do not count the same experience


excludeDefaultContent: do not count default content
In addition, for impression capping, use the experienceFrequencyCapping step action.
You can set additional data for the experienceFrequencyCapping action:
<step>
<name>Success Metric 1</name>
<action type="experienceFrequencyCapping" maxVisitsCount='2' maxImpressionsCount='8'
onConditionsMetAction='ban'/>
<locations><location><mboxes><mbox><name>categoryPage</name></mbox></mboxes>
</location></locations>
</step>
onConditionsMetAction can be either:

ban: bans the user from the experience he is on if has reached either 2 visits or 8 impressions (does not matter what condition
was reached first). After reaching the cap, the user remains on the current experience in the campaign, but on the visit of the
entry step, the user is banned from the current experience and whether another experience can be selected is evaluated, excluding
the experiences where the visitor has reached the cap (or, was banned from).
reset: resets all current capping information for a user. All previous cap information is deleted.
Either maxVisitsCount or maxImpressionsCount must be present.
<step>
<name>Success Metric 1</name>
<action type="experienceFrequencyCapping" maxVisitsCount='2' maxImpressionsCount='8'
onConditionsMetAction='ban'>
<experience
name="Experience A" maxVisitsCount='3' maxImpressionsCount='10' onConditionsMetAction='reset'
/>
<experience name="Experience B"
maxVisitsCount='3' maxImpressionsCount='10' onConditionsMetAction='ban' />
</action>
<locations><location><mboxes><mbox><name>categoryPage</name></mbox></mboxes>
</location></locations>
</step>

If the impression capping is not provided for all campaign experiences, the impression capping provided at the action level is
used.
If the campaign is edited within the Target interface and a new branch is added, the branch automatically uses the impression
capping set at the action level.
Limiting Changes and Visibility
Campaigns created in Recommendations are visible in Target but are not editable. Allowing editing would create synchronization
issues with their origin and any updates made in Recommendations override the changes made in Target.
Recommendations campaigns are hidden by adding the parameter editUrl=hidden to the campaign create API. For example:
https://admin/admin/api?client=demo&email=demo@fortpoint.com&password=demo&operation=saveCampaign&version=1&editUrl=hidden&campaign=XMLHERE

You can also make a campaign read-only with the editUrl=readonly parameter. The details for the campaign can be viewed,
but the edit page is not editable. Everyone is essentially a read-only user when viewing the campaign. Campaigns saved via the

Test&Target API

13

API with editUrl=readonly can't be saved in the admin UI, but can be updated using the API. Read-only campaigns can be
deleted, and campaign states can be changed.
Demo Campaign XML
Notes
Experience name is limited to 20 characters.
To set an offer to display the default content, pass Default Content.
<offer>
<name>Default Content</name>
</offer>

If you want your mbox to display the default content, you must pass a string of DefaultContent (whatever is in the mbox div)
At least one branch is required.
Each experience must include the same mboxes.
Each offer listed must be already created. Use Offer Create to create new offers.

Performance Report
The Performance Report API lets you programmatically extract detailed performance information for a single campaign.
About Version 2
An new version of the Performance Report API is now available. The format has been improved to make it easier to write scripts
to traverse the API response and gather the data. Each step now contains an "amount" node within it that displays the count,
which make the returned data easier to read.
Additionally, in version 1, revenue data is only available for the final conversion point on the campaign. Version 2 shows sales
data available for all steps in the campaign, not just the final conversion point. It also shows engagement data per step instead
of grouped at the end.
To use the new verison, append &version=2 to your API call to the Performance Report.

Parse the Query Response


Optionally, you can use a scripting language such as Perl, Python, and Ruby, to parse the results and write them to an output
file, such as a CSV file, that you can view in any spreadsheet application.

Profile Passing & Offline Conversion


The Third-party Profile Passing and Offline Conversion API lets you programmatically pass a user profile and map a third-party
user ID to T&T.
Pass a User Profile: Use the profile passing API to pass third-party segmentation data into Test&Target (T&T) as profile
attributes for targeting. This lets you use Test&Target to target content based on segmentation data from analytics vendors,
as long as you know the T&T ID for the user to which the passed-in data belongs.
Note: Using the Test&Target ID is preferred, but the API also supports using a third-party ID (assuming the ID is already
stored in Test&Target). Contact your Account Representative for further details.
Map a Third-Party User ID to T&T: Use the Offline Conversion API to associate a visitor ID in your system with a Test&Target
visitor ID. Doing this lets you add additional profile information to the visitor's Test&Target persistent profile.
Passing a User Profile
Use the Profile Passing API to pass third-party segmentation data into Test&Target as profile attributes for targeting.
This lets you use Test&Target to target content based on segmentation data from analytics vendors, as long as you know the
T&T ID for the user to which the passed-in data belongs.
1. Create the URL. For example:
https://clientcode.tt.omtrdc.net/m2/clientcode/rest/standard?mbox=confirmed_offline
&mboxPC=XXX&mboxHost=offline.offermatica.com&mboxParam=value&profile.Name=value&version=1

Note: Parameters and values are case sensitive.


Parameter
clientCode
mbox
mboxPC

Description
(Required) A valid T&T client code.
(Required) The mbox name.
(Required) The T&T profile ID of the user associated with the passed-in segment data.

Test&Target API

38

Parameter

Description

mboxHost

(Optional) The mbox host. The default value is offline.offermatica.com.

mboxParam
profile.Name

Version

(Optional) A list of name/value pairs to pass into the mbox for targeting content.
(Optional) A list of name/value pairs with the names prefixed with "profile.", which signals T&T
to store the name/value pair in the user profile.
Specify which version of the API you want to use. Set this to version=1 unless there is a different
version described in the documentation.

2. Inspect the query reponse.


The query response uses the following XML structure:
<response>
<success>true</success>
<pcId>124252</pcId>
</response>

Tag
success

Description
Indicates the success of failure of the query.
true: success
false: failure.

pcId

The user's unique identifier. Shown only when success = true.

Map a Third-Party User ID to T&T


The Offline Conversion API lets you map a third-party profile ID, order ID, or any other ID explicitly associated with a user,
to a T&T profile ID.
Build the mapping by making an mbox request with the parameter:
mbox3rdPartyId=XXX

For example:
<div class="mboxDefault"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
mboxCreate('application_submitted_online', 'mbox3rdPartyId=CA10021456');
</script>

T&T logs the third-party ID or pcId when it writes the profile to the database (after a delay of about 30 minutes). After the
third-party ID or pcId is logged, you can use the API to send more requests and use the third-party profile ID instead of the
mboxId. For example:
https://clientcode.tt.omtrdc.net/m2/clientcode/rest/standard?mbox=confirmed_offline
&mbox3rdPartyId=acmecorp&mboxHost=offline.omniture.com&
mboxParam=value&profile.Name=value&version=1

Test&Target API

(Optional) The mbox host. The default value is offline.offermatica.com.
(Optional) A list of name/value pairs to pass into the mbox for targeting content.
(Optional) A list of name/value pairs with the names prefixed with "profile.", which signals T&T to
store the name/value pair in the user profile.
Specify which version of the API you want to use. Set this to version=1 unless there is a different version
described in the documentation.

Third-Party Campaign ID
The Third-party Campaign ID API lets you associate a third-party identifier to a T&T campaign.
Associate the Third-Party ID
You can associate a third-party ID with a T&T campaign only when creating the campaign programmatically (see Campaign
Copy). To do so, specify the appropriate third-party ID in the <thirdPartyId> element. For example:
<campaign>
<name>Example REST Campaign</name>
<thirdPartyId>extID501</3rdPartyId>
<branches>
...
</campaign>

Looking Up a Campaign by Third-Party ID


Create the URL. For example:
https://testandtarget.omniture.com/api?client=user1&
email=user1@acme.com&password=pword&operation=getCampaignId&campaign3rdPartyId=extID501&version=1

Note: Parameters and values are case sensitive.

Widget Offer Creation


The Widget Offer Creation API lets you programmatically create a widget offer.
Create the URL
A widget offer is a URL that corresponds to a T&T fetched response from a third-party server. T&T caches a response associated
with each offerID parameter, which serves as a key.
For each operation add the parameters and values necessary to set the state of the T&T campaign. For example:
https://admin.testandtarget.omniture.com/api?client=clientcode&
email=user@corp1.com&password=pword&operation&version=1

Parameter
client
email
password
operation

name

</success>

If the operation fails, T&T returns an XML response that contains an error message. For example:
<error>
<message>Parameter 'id' should not be blank.</message>
<code>400</code>
</error>
