Forward Auction API

Forward Auction API Overview

1.Registration API

Registration is done through auction software’s authentication service. Since payment gateways are involved, we support only HTTPS. We authenticate with basic authentication and cookie sessions. Only after registering, the user will have access to post product, admin panel(if super admin) and other segments.

The registration API brings the following formidable features

  • Registration as buyer and seller.
  • Email verification to register.
  • User Login.
  • Login with facebook.
  • Retrieve forgotten password.

2.Product Posting API

Posting a product involves a complex set of wrapper JSON which is customized and delivered based on the requirement of the customer. We have base set of required fields which are added and removed based on the specifications.

3.Search Filters API

Search filters allow multiple filtering of products, which includes sorting by the status (buy now, auction and classified). Category based sorting, time based sorting, region based sorting, price range based sorting and other filters option (enables searching options like filter by self pickup).

4.Bidding API

Bidding API allows the users to bid and the only requirement is the bid amount. Server side validations allow the users to bid the correct amount, and proxy bidding allows absentee bidding. Until the reserve price is met and auction closes, the bidding continues. Proxy bidding, if enabled, allows the user to place bid (system places the bid) whenever a bid is placed in his absence. Only requirement sent via this request is the bid_amount.

5.Dashboard API
There are two dashboards, buyer and the seller dashboards.

The following API calls are made:

Buyer Dashboard

GET /dashboard/activebids – All the bids made and the products that are active and open to bidding ( yet to be won) are listed under the active bids section of the dashboard.

  • GET /dashboard/mywon – Products that are won through bidding are listed in the won bids section of the dashboard.

6.Payments API

RESTFUL payment APIs are done through various payment gateways. Our payment gateway services include paypal, paypal-adaptive, Braintree, vougepay, stripe, payUbiz, PayUMoney, authorize and so on. We extend our services through wrapper that wraps the amount to be paid as JSON response, sends it as HTTPS request to the server to complete the transaction.

7.Shipping API

Product shipping can be done through the shipping API, which allows to track the location, time and the current place of the package. Shipping partner depends on the client’s need and is accordingly customized. Generally shipping API needs address width and height of the products.

8.Reviews API

9.Memberships API

  2. Revoking and adding memberships
  3. User activation and deactivation
  4. Shipping and payment API customization
  5. Dashboard access
  6. Review customization
  7. And various other accesses.

To get access to the admin panel you should have the admin user access, which is not available for all users by default.

API Methods

All endpoints are invoked with https://www.auctionsoftwaremarketplace.com/

The reporting API endpoints are divided into two categories:

JSON endpoints and CSV export endpoints.

JSON endpoints get response and posts to the API, which in turn processes the object and gets the response from the server. For example, the API catches the search parameters as JSON and posts it to the server to fetch data from the server.

CSV export endpoints are designed for use by custom reports. These endpoints return data in CSV format with a header to describe the schema. For instance, at any point the admin user can import all the users as CSV.

Currency conversions

All cost and revenue numbers are returned with two decimal places of precision. The default currency is US Dollars (USD), and can be overridden with the currency query parameter where appropriate.

Attributions

An attribution is a customer-defined conversion event with its attributed impression(s) or click(s). There are two classes of attributions:

  1. Standard attributions are generated to be either click-through or view-through attributions. This determination is done by using the advertiser’s click-through and view-through windows, which are specified in the advertiser’s account settings.
  2. Flexible attributions behave more like potential attributions. These attributions do not have any concrete meaning without specifying click-through and view-through windows post-generation of the attribution.

There are correspondingly two sets of endpoints for attribution reporting: one for standard attributions, and one for flexible attributions. The endpoints for standard attributions provide summarized counts for click-through and view-throughs. The endpoints for flexible attributions provide more raw-level data for impression and click history, so as to allow the client to efficiently explore the resulting data set without having to make a series of calls.

Penny Auction API

Penny Auction API

Penny Auction API

Penny Auction API Overview

1.Registration API

 

Registration is done through auction software’s authentication service. Since payment gateways are involved, we support only HTTPS. We authenticate with basic authentication and cookie sessions.

The following Bidding API are

Manual Bid

API Methods

 

All endpoints are invoked with https://www.auctionsoftwaremarketplace.com/

The reporting API endpoints are divided into two categories:

JSON endpoints and CSV export endpoints.

JSON endpoints get response and posts to the API, which in turn processes the object and gets the response from the server. For example, the API catches the search parameters as JSON and posts it to the server to fetch data from the server.

CSV export endpoints are designed for use by custom reports. These endpoints return data in CSV format with a header to describe the schema. For instance, at any point the admin user can import all the users as CSV.

Currency conversions

All cost and revenue numbers are returned with two decimal places of precision. The default currency is US Dollars (USD), and can be overridden with the currency query parameter where appropriate.

Attributions

An attribution is a customer-defined conversion event with its attributed impression(s) or click(s). There are two classes of attributions:

  1. Standard attributions are generated to be either click-through or view-through attributions. This determination is done by using the advertiser’s click-through and view-through windows, which are specified in the advertiser’s account settings.
  2. Flexible attributions behave more like potential attributions. These attributions do not have any concrete meaning without specifying click-through and view-through windows post-generation of the attribution.

There are correspondingly two sets of endpoints for attribution reporting: one for standard attributions, and one for flexible attributions. The endpoints for standard attributions provide summarized counts for click-through and view-throughs. The endpoints for flexible attributions provide more raw-level data for impression and click history, so as to allow the client to efficiently explore the resulting data set without having to make a series of calls.
