Tracking Filter API

You can use the Tracking Filter API to find out in advance if click or path tracking will succeed by being redirected to the offer URL or fail due to email or IP being blacklisted, or maybe it would end redirecting to Affiliate Return URL. The response of this API will let you know if it's worth running the click against the user you're checking it on, or it would be a missed click.

Here are the API request details:

Method:
GET

URL:
Generate URL in Offer paths > Path tracking link or Offers > Tracking link from the main menu

Params:

email - email of user you want to run the click for
filter_ip - IP of user
filter_device_type - user's device, should be one of values: mobile or desktop

If the filter response is positive you will receive Status Code 200 and a JSON formatted response containing the URL you should send the user to.

If the click would fail you will receive Status Code 4xx and a JSON formatted response containing the error message.

Sample success response:

{
  "url": "https://the_redirect_url_here.com/clkreg/t/t?email=[e-mail]"
}

Sample fail response:

{
  "message": "The email [e-mail] is blacklisted."
}
