What is the Mapp Engage API?

An API is

used by two or more platforms

used  to share information

and manage processes

without the need for human intervention.
The Mapp Engage API makes it possible for you to connect any program

or webpage

to your marketing platform

.
This lets you pull data into our system and extract information for reuse in other applications

.

We employ a consistent scheme for our SOAP and REST API solutions. Feel free to decide which solution best fits your needs.

For an overview of the SOAP solution, see SOAP API. For an overview of the REST solution, see REST

API.Other solutions and the previous REST and SOAP solutions are still available, however, these will no longer be extended or updated

.

If you wish to continue using an old application that is based on these interfaces, please contact your customer support representative.

Authorization & Permissions

Both SOAP and REST API use HTTP basic authentication method
that does not require cookies or session tokens.

For this reason, there are no explicit login and logout methods.
Instead, the authorization header must be included in each API request.

The example header for 'test@test.com' user and 'test' password is following

Code Block
Authorization: Basic dGVzdEB0ZXN0LmNvbTp0ZXN0

You should use the "API user" or "Hybrid User" user type for authentication

.To execute the API call successfully,
the API user account must also have required system permissions

.

Host header

Some systems might require host-header

e.g :

Code Block
Host: staging11.shortest-route.com
