Connect with Daisycon through our API
The Daisycon API allows advertisers and publishers to connect their own applications, platforms and internal systems with Daisycon. It can be used to retrieve data, automate recurring processes and integrate Daisycon functionality directly into your own software.
The Daisycon API is a RESTful API and uses JSON for exchanging data. Available resources and use cases differ between advertisers and publishers, so Daisycon provides dedicated documentation for both account types.
Choose the documentation that matches your Daisycon account below to learn how to create an app, authenticate with OAuth, use the available API resources, work with the sandbox and handle rate limits and errors.
REST
The Daisycon API is a RESTful API. The REST architectural style was developed by W3C Technical Architecture Group (TAG) in parallel with HTTP 1.1, based on the existing design of HTTP 1.0. The World Wide Web represents the largest implementation of a system conforming to the REST architectural style.
Create an app
Create a developer account and register an app to connect with the Daisycon API. Your app defines its type, permissions and authentication credentials.
Authentication
In order to use the Daisycon API you will need to have an advertiser or publisher account (or both) with API permissions. If you don’t already have an account, you can visit Daisycon.com to create a publisher account.
Rate limits
The Daisycon API uses a throttling mechanism to limit the amount of calls an API-user can make. This mechanism reduces the strain on our backend systems, as well as prevents multiple users to compete for resources. This will result in less downtime and error responses.
Resources
The Daisycon API has resources specifically for advertiser, for publisher and some common resources for retrieving the data and performing updates etc. Requests are formatted as JSON.
Sandbox
Develop and test your API integration safely in the Daisycon Sandbox. You can also use some of our example codes to help you get started.
