Attribution with Ionic API Key
Attributing transactions originating from clicks on links generated by the Ionic API. Users must obtain an API Key from support@ioniccommerce.com and use it either in the header x-api-key
or as a query parameter api_key
.
Getting Started
Obtaining an API Key
- Request an API Key: Send an email to support@ioniccommerce.com to request your unique API Key.
- API Key Delivery: Upon verification, the API Key will be sent to your registered email address.
Implementing the API Key
You can use the API Key in two ways:
Transaction Attribution
Tracking Clicks
Each click on an Ionic generated link is tracked so we know when links are clicked and that they came from you.
Attributing Transactions
Transactions made through the clicked link are attributed to the source API Key. The system checks for a valid API Key and matches transactions to the corresponding user account.
Troubleshooting
Invalid API Key: Ensure the key is correctly entered in the request, we will not fail requests if an invalid or incorrect API Key is used.
