What is the Mapp Engage API?
An API is used to share information without the need for human intervention.
The Mapp Engage API makes it possible for you to connect any program to your marketing platform.
For an overview of the SOAP solution, see SOAP API. For an overview of the REST solution, see REST API.
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
Authorization: Basic dGVzdEB0ZXN0LmNvbTp0ZXN0
You should use the "API user" or "Hybrid User" user type for authentication.
Host header
Some systems might require host-headere.g :
Host: staging11.shortest-route.com
