Syncing order data via API

Syncing order data via backend (recommended)

To send order data to CitrusAd, use a command similar to the command below. Note that the data in the orders field below is dummy data, and is provided here only as an example. These examples all display the standard integration.

Integrating a marketplace sellerId?

Be sure to read the Marketplace sellerId section below.

Single item orders

Below is the context for a customer who has purchased a single item:

POST $BASE_URL/v1/orders HTTP/1.1 
accept: application/json
content-type: application/json
Authorization: Basic <API_KEY>
{
    "orders": [
       {
        "customerId": "npc-s243-ir",
        "catalogId": "6adb93d0-7he4-4d4e-9b47-e5d3714c976a",
        "sessionId": "5cat7-9964-4f",
        "orderDate": "2021-12-02T15:00:00Z",
        "id": "3h30e938-c158-4d78-a0af-b48bbwfrcss4",
        "orderItems": [
            {
                  "gtin": "9891998566P",
                  "quantity": 3,

                  "totalOrderItemPriceAfterDiscounts": "3.00"              
                }
              ]
            }
    ]
}

If successful, the following object will be returned:

HTTP/2 200
{
    "orders": [
        {
            "adIds": null,
            "teamId": "a7e5cat7-9964-4ff3-bbb1-94bf9b53a366",
            "customerId": "npc-s243-ir",
            "catalogId": "6adb93d0-7he4-4d4e-9b47-e5d3714c976a",
            "sessionId": "5cat7-9964-4f",
            "id": "3h30e938-c158-4d78-a0af-b48bbwfrcss4",
            "orderItems": [
                {
                    "regularUnitPrice": 1.00,

                    "gtin": "9891998566P",
                    "adId": "",
                    "quantity": 3,
                    "substitutedFor": null,
                    "totalOrderItemPriceAfterDiscounts": 3.00
                }
            ],
            "orderDate": "2021-12-02T15:00:00Z",
        }
    ]
}

🚧

OrderDate format

OrderDate in the format above is read as UTC time. You will need to synchronise in UTC.

Alternatively, you can set an offset for your timezone, subsituting Z for +HH:MM relevant to your timezone. For example: “orderDate”: “2021-12-02T15:00:00+10:00" will specify the timezone is UTC+10.

Multi-item orders

Below is the context for a customer who has purchased multiple items - there are multiple items in the orderItems array:

POST $BASE_URL/v1/orders HTTP/1.1 
accept: application/json
content-type: application/json
Authorization: Basic <API_KEY>

                  "regularUnitPrice": "2.50",
                  "totalOrderItemPriceAfterDiscounts": "2.50"            
                }
              ]
            }
    ]
}

If successful, the following object will be returned:

            "orderDate": "2021-12-02T15:00:00Z",
        }

}

Syncing multiple orders

If you are syncing multiple orders, you can send up to 100 items as a batch with each request. The number of requests you can make is unlimited. The payload order pushed is the same order as the result returned. This makes it possible for the data to remain congruent with the order representation in your backend.

POST $BASE_URL/v1/orders HTTP/1.1 
accept: application/json
content-type: application/json
Authorization: Basic <API_KEY>

Marketplace sellerId

If you are onboarding marketplace sellers you need to synchronise the sellerId where applicable when reporting orders. In the event the purchased product does not have a sellerId, it can be omitted.

❗️

If you are not onboarding marketplace sellers, you do not need to specify sellerId in the order report

Below is an example of an order where one product is from a marketplace seller and another is not a marketplace product:

POST $BASE_URL/v1/orders HTTP/1.1 
accept: application/json
content-type: application/json
Authorization: Basic <API_KEY>
{
    "orders": [
       {
        "customerId": "npc-s243-ir",
        "catalogId": "6adb93d0-7he4-4d4e-9b47-e5d3714c976a",
        "sessionId": "5cat7-9964-4f",
        "orderDate": "2021-12-02T15:00:00Z",
        "id": "abcti84ew-c158-4d78-a0af-b48bbwfrcss4",
        "orderItems": [
            {
                  "gtin": "9891998566P",
                  "quantity": 3,
                  "regularUnitPrice": "1.00",
                  "totalOrderItemPriceAfterDiscounts": "3.00",
                  "sellerId": "10sa-3s33-j8e3"
                }
              ]
            },
          {
                  "gtin": "351998532P",
                  "quantity": 1,
                  "regularUnitPrice": "2.50",
                  "totalOrderItemPriceAfterDiscounts": "2.50"            
                }
              ]
            }
    ]
}

Syncing order data via frontend (not recommended)

If you are unable to sync order data via the backend, CitrusAd supports an open API as specified below. It is recommended that this is only used when backend integration and file synchronising capabilities are not possible.

🚧

Reporting any data via the frontend is a higher risk than a standard backend integration.

Integrators should be aware of the risk that while the reporting domain is not currently blocked by adblockers, it may be in the future, at which point CitrusAd will not be responsible for any lost data.

Retrieving order information

If you wish to verify order information within CitrusAd, you will make a GET request to the /orders/ API with the order id.

GET $BASE_URL/v1/orders/<ORDER_ID> HTTP/1.1
accept: application/json
content-type: application/json
Authorization: Basic <API_KEY>

You will retrieve all information related to the order stored within the CitrusAd system.
In the event the order is not found, it has likely not been ingested into the CitrusAd system.
