API Pattern

Base URL

http ttps://api.criteo.com/<version>/retail-media/{endpoint}

Request type

In request payloads, type identifies the resource type you are sending. For requests, type is completely optional. You can omit it, but it can be useful in complex systems where you validate payload structure and data types before sending data to Criteo's API.

The technical definition of each resource type is contained in the machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Example

{
  "data": [
    {
      "type": "AudienceSegment",
      "attributes": {
        "name": "{segmentName}",
        "description": "{segmentDescription}",
        "retailerId": "{retailerId}",
        "contactList": {
          "identifierType": "Email"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Synchronous Endpoints

All campaign operations except for Catalogs are achieved through synchronous endpoints. Those will return a response in real-time.

📘

• "Create" operations using the POST method expect every Required (R) field; omitting Optional (O) fields will set those fields to Default values.* "Update" operations using the PUT method expect every Write (W) field; omitting these fields is equivalent to setting them to null, if possible.

Asynchronous Endpoints

"Catalogs" and "Reports" are requested and retrieved through asynchronous endpoints. Those will send a response once the request is done processing (not in real-time).

Error Codes

When sending more than 50 IDs, you will get the following 400 Bad request HTTP Response:

{
    "errors": [
        {
            "code": "exceeded-ids-cap",
            "title": "Requests are capped for 50 unique ids, 51 were provided",
            "type": "validation",
            "traceId": "aa47dd83-8ca9-4a79-a179-ad5be6932ff1",
            "instance": "/api/v1/reports/line-item",
            "detail": "ids Requests are capped for 50 unique ids, 51 were provided (Value: \"1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51\")",
            "source": {
                "ids": "data/attributes/ids"
            }
        }
    ]
}

This Contains:

• Error code: exceeded-ids-cap

• Error title: Requests are capped for 50 unique ids, {count of ids requested} were provided

• Error Type: validation

• A traceId: aa47dd83-8ca9-4a79-a179-ad5be6932ff1
