System generated default API keys introduced Until now, every new user who wanted to leverage the Ingenious APIs needed to create their API keys manually. With the increasing demand of API usage due to our public network customers, we removed that step and introduce system generated default API keys. Every user now has a default API key. This key is also used for all UI exports (creatives, voucher, product data, conversions, …). This means that you can use these links directly to automate your exports. Menu: Menu: |

New API documentation Partner Marketing is all about automation. Using our API you can automate recurring tasks like campaign management, sales validation, and more. We took the time to improve our OpenAPI specification, and use a new documentation system RapiDoc to generate the documentation. API separation We now separate the API documentation into three difference areas: Platform, Agency, and Partner. Execute API calls directly from the documentation A new powerful feature is, that you can enter your API key into the documentation, and try out all API calls directly from the docs: Platform-independent documentation All customers can access their API documentation on their custom domain. However, in order to simplify the integration of Ingenious with the Marketing ecosystem, we now support a unified API on the domain https://api.ingenious.cloud. This API works with all platform-specific API-keys from all platforms. It also has it’s own documentation for Platform, Agency, and Partner APIs. Default Response Headers We extended our API gateway to include three new HTTP Response headers, so you can ensure that you use the right platform. This is especially useful for Tool-vendors who want to integrate with Ingenious platforms.
Link to the API documentation All of your Users (Admins, Advertisers, Partners) can find the link to the respective API documentation in their Access menu. Menu: Menu: |

Product data feed api endpoint We had several requests asking how to query product data feeds of an advertiser and get more information about its config and execution data. This endpoint uses IQL (Ingenious Query Language) which you will find more information about here. |

XML product feed mapping It was previously not possible to upload a xml feed that had the same tag in different levels because we only used the tag name to map the value. Now we use the whole path to the tag as its mapping-name. The following schema can now be used without any data loss and confusion regarding the names (price vs. shipping_price)

Device Id on server to server conversions in reports Server to server conversions themselves do not contain device information so the device id on them was always set to “desktop“ in analytic reports. Now the device id of the most appropriate user journey touchpoint is applied on server to server conversions. Optional you can provide the appropriate device id using a parameter called 'device_type' set to one of supported device id values: “mobile“, “tablet“, “desktop“ |

Safe time with automatic confirmation by default A default time for automatic confirmation of a Conversion can now be defined in commission models. This allows you to run the automatic confirmation for all Conversions except for those with a specific configuration in your Commission Model. | |
Voucher now contain trackable landing-page links Vouchers to be used by partners for promotion of campaigns now contain tracking click links, which removes the need for your partners to create a deeplink to the landing-page manually. If a voucher does not have a dedicated landing-page, the default landing-page of the advertiser is used. Also the voucher-export now contains those tracking click links. | |
Remove the grid-view for adspaces in favor to the table view We removed the adspace grid view in favor to the table view to optimize usability for partners with a large number of adspaces. |

New menu navigation We created a new menu-structure as well as a new navigation type: The new structure reflects the Ingenious products and was inspired by customer feedback. We made all tools that were previously only to reach through the advertiser manager, available in the menu. We save the last selected advertiser and make it the default whenever opening another mask where an advertiser selection is needed. You can change the advertiser by clicking on it in the breadcrumb. Instead of two levels we now have three levels. Also the levels will not be visible all the time but instead only open up on hover and disappear again on a click to either a menu point or the grey-ish space next to it. We prepared a more in-depth article of the changes: 28.07.2021 UI navigation makeover . |

Dashboards Under circumstances of some browser, you were not able to add dashboard widgets to your dashboards. We fixed this issue, so you can overwatch the performance of your partnerships again with your flexible and individual dashboards. Exports Exports revealed some unnecessary info messages inside downloaded documents when there was no data available. We figured these are irritating and make programming automated integrations harder, so we removed them. Some Exports stated that there is the possibility, that there was a limit to the amount of data being loaded by a single export. This is not the case, so we removed this message. For all exports we removed an artificial limit of 100 days for time ranges. |

Advertiser Explorer and Profile for Partner UI The new Advertiser Explorer is available on the Partner platform from now on. It will replace the old Program catalogue soon. It makes it easier for partners to discover advertisers due to tons of new filters. We've added attributes and performance metrics to aid in the decision-making of the partners to choose with which advertiser they want to work with. For example you can filter by certain attributes of an advertiser: only show me advertisers that offer a product data feed and use first party tracking. And then sort to see the advertisers with the highest EPC first. Platform administrators can enable the Advertiser Explorer for all partners in your platform configuration settings. For more information on the Explorer please read our documentation. |
