API documentation - Data Management Platform

Tracking events

There are two ways to track data: Through front-end or back-end.
Front-end means that you will use a tracking pixel on your website. Back-end means you use server to server communication to track your data via our API.

The goal is to send events to us with user behavior, so we can create segments that you can use on the connected channels.
This integration guide will help you set up the event tracking.

Front-end tracking

Almost all tracking will be done through front-end.

Place the following personalized code snippet in the head section of every page you want to use tracking on.

NOTE: Please log in to see your personalized snippet.


    <script type="text/javascript">

    (function(s,q,u,e,z,l,y){s['SqueezelyObject']=z;s[z]=s[z]||function(){
    (s[z].q=s[z].q||[]).push(arguments)},s[z].l=1*new Date();l=q.createElement(u),
    y=q.getElementsByTagName(u)[0];l.async=1;l.src=e;y.parentNode.insertBefore(l,y)
    })(window,document,'script','https://squeezely.tech/tracker/<YOUR_IDENTIFIER>/sqzl.js','sqzl');

    </script>

Tracking events

You can track Standard Events or Custom Events.
For example. if you want to track a pageview through the standard PageView event, use the following code:


    <script type="text/javascript">

        sqzl({
            "event" : "PageView"
        });

    </script>

That's all, your visitors are now being tracked!
The more info we have the better your segments will be. To provide more data, use the available properties as shown in the documentation of the event.

Another example: Track a Purchase event:


<script type="text/javascript">

    sqzl({
        "event"         : "Purchase",
        "email"         : "jan@schmit.com",
        "firstname"     : "Jan",
        "lastname"      : "Schmidt",
        "gender"        : "M",
        "birthdate"     : "1985-12-31",
        "city"          : "Berlin",
        "country"       : "DE",
        "orderid"       : "12345",
        "currency"      : "EUR",
        "products"      : [
                            "id": "ABC123",
                            "name": "Product 1",
                            "category_id": "CAT_1",
                            "price": 29.99,
                            "quantity": 2
                          ]
    });

</script>

All events work this way, you can track as many events on a page as you want. Please refer to the event specific documentation (found in the menu on the left) to find out which events and properties are supported.

By default all tracking pixels are sent immediately. It is possible however to give customers more control. You can implement your own privacy policy by implementing custom pixel consent.
Enabling custom pixel consent:

Implement reject & grant consent as shown below.
Enable the Custom consent management setting in the company settings panel.

NOTE: Pixels will stop being sent by default after enabling the Custom consent management setting.
Please enable this option after you have implemented the consent constols shown in code below.

Granting all permissions:


    <script type="text/javascript">

        sqzl({
            "consent": "grant"
        });

    </script>

Granting only specific permissions:


    <script type="text/javascript">

        sqzl({
            "consent": "grant",
            "permissions": [
                "analytics"
            ]
        });

    </script>

Revoking all permissions:


    <script type="text/javascript">

        sqzl({
            "consent": "revoke"
        });

    </script>

Revoking only specific permissions:


    <script type="text/javascript">

        sqzl({
            "consent": "revoke",
            "permissions": [
                "marketing"
            ]
        });

    </script>

Pixels sent while permission is revoked will be queued. All events in the queue will be sent as soon as permission is granted again.

NOTE: Consent has to be set on every page. This is not a setting that will be stored in a cookie.

NOTE: Queued pixels are lost as soon as a customer reloads or leaves the page. Any unsent pixels will not be stored.

Available permissions:

Permission	Description
analytics	Allows 3rd party pixels and cookies for analytical purposes
marketing	Allows 3rd party pixels and cookies for marketing purposes

By default all data sent to us will be used. It is also possible to anonymize events by enabling the anonymization feature. This will disable the marketing consent, remove any fields containing personal information and anonymize IP addresses by removing the last octet before it is forwarded.

Enabling the anonymization feature:


    <script type="text/javascript">

        sqzl({
            "anonymize": "yes"
        });

    </script>

Disabling the anonymization feature:


    <script type="text/javascript">

        sqzl({
            "anonymize": "no"
        });

    </script>

NOTE: Anonymization has to be enabled on every page. This is not a setting that will be stored in a cookie.

NOTE: Anonymization has to be enabled before any events are sent to be effective.

Using the back-end API

This API is meant for server to server HTTP calls.

Authentication

All API endpoints require authentication. Authentication will be performed by checking two values in the HTTP request headers.

Header	Description
X-AUTH-ACCOUNT	This is the Account-identifier
X-AUTH-APIKEY	This is the secret API key. Consider this value as being a password.

The API key can be found and if so desired, modified in the company settings panel.

NOTE: Examples in the documentation will contain the Account-identifier and API key when logged in.

Data formatting

All information sent to the API has to be in either or JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format or included as HTTP POST parameters. Responses will always be in JSON format. We currently do not support other formats like XML or other methods of serialization.

Base API URL

All back-end API endpoints can be reached at https://squeezely.tech

Example requests

PHP


    $url = "https://squeezely.tech/api/v1/<ENDPOINT>";
    $fields = [
        'some_field' => 'some_value'
    ];
    $json = json_encode($fields);

    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $json);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
        'X-AUTH-ACCOUNT: <ACCOUNT_IDENTIFIER>',
        'X-AUTH-APIKEY: <API_KEY>',
        'Content-Type: application/json',
        'Content-Length: ' . strlen($json)
    ));
    
    $result = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);

NOTE: Please log in to see your Account-identifier and API Key.

Response values

When correctly authorized, we will return a JSON response with the result.

Example response for a correct call:

{
    "success": true,
    // ...
    "errors": []
}

Example response for an incorrect call:

{
    "success": false,
    "errors": [
        // ...
    ]
}

NOTE: Please make sure you do not implement any of these server to server endpoints in front-end code. This would be a security issue as authentication headers are included in every request.

Response codes

HTTP status code	Description	Error codes
403	Invalid credentials	MISSING_API_KEY_OR_ACCOUNT INVALID_CREDENTIALS

Back-end Tracking

With backend tracking you can send server to server events.

Backend events have the same parameters as frontend events, but also allow you to set the date & time.
You can send up to 250 events at a time. See the PHP example code below:


    $url = "https://squeezely.tech/api/v1/track";
    $fields = [
        "events" => [
             [
                 "event"           => "Purchase",
                 "email"           => $email,
                 "firstname"       => $firstname,
                 "lastname"        => $lastname,
                 "gender"          => $order->getCustomerGender(),
                 "birthdate"       => $order->getCustomerDob(),
                 "phone"           => $order->getShippingAddress()->getTelephone(),
                 "postcode"        => $order->getShippingAddress()->getPostcode(),
                 "city"            => $order->getShippingAddress()->getCity(),
                 "country"         => $order->getShippingAddress()->getCountry(),
                 "currency"        => $order->getOrderCurrencyCode(),
                 "orderid"         => $orderId,

                     ]
                 ]
            ]
        ]
    ];

    $json = json_encode($fields);

    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $json);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
        'X-AUTH-ACCOUNT: <ACCOUNT_IDENTIFIER>',
        'X-AUTH-APIKEY: <API_KEY>',
        'Content-Type: application/json',
        'Content-Length: ' . strlen($json)
    ));
    
    $result = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);

NOTE: Please log in to see your Account-identifier and API Key.

Just replace the values with your values and you're ready to go!

Privacy requests

Conforming with the European General Data Protection Regulation law, known as GDPR has become mandatory.

By implementing this server to server API endpoint it is possible to give customers a custom experience when giving insight to the personal information that has been stored. Implementing all features of this endpoint will give customers the opportunity to view, change or delete personal information.

Flow

Privacy requests work as follows:

Request profiles for a specific customer.
After the request has been handled you will receive a callback containing the profiles that have been found and the personal information contained within them.
Present the data to the customer and/or provide a way to change data for each profile.
Delete or modify the profile when required.

Implementation

Step 1: Requesting profiles matching a cookie or e-mail address for a customer

Endpoint: /api/v1/privacy/request

Requesting a customer's profiles
HTTP POST Request:
Searching for profiles by e-mail:

{
	"callback_url": "https://example.com",
	"email": "example@example.com"
}

Searching for profiles by cookie:

{
	"callback_url": "https://example.com",
	"cookie": "<COOKIE_IDENTIFIER>"
}

API Response:

{
    "success": true,
    "callbackHash": "<CALLBACK_HASH>"
}

Step 2: Receiving the profiles on the specified callback URL

After processing the request the callback URL will receive a HTTP POST request with a JSON formatted string containing the profiles as payload.

{
    "callbackHash": "<CALLBACK_HASH>",
    "profiles": [
        {
            "profileHash": "<PROFILE_HASH>",
            "entities": {
                "12344": {
                    "firstname": "Fist",
                    "lastname": "Last",
                    "gender": "m",
                    "zipcode": "1234AB",
                    "city": "Amsterdam",
                    "country": "nl",
                    "phone": "+31612345678",
                    "email": "example@example.com"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}

Step 3: Changing fields in user profiles, or deleting them

NOTE: The profile hashes could differ from the callback hash received when creating the privacy request. Please always use the profile hashes received in the callback payload.

NOTE: The callback & profile hashes are always 64 character strings.

Deleting a profile
HTTP DELETE Request:

Endpoint: /api/v1/privacy/request/{PROFILE_HASH}

{}

API Response:

{
    "success": true
}

Modifying a profile

Endpoint: /api/v1/privacy/request/{PROFILE_HASH}

HTTP PATCH Request:

{
	"entities": {
		"12345": {
            "firstname": "New first name",
            "lastname": "New last name",
            "gender": "f",
            "zipcode": "",
            "city": "",
            "country": "",
            "phone": "",
            "email": "example@example.com"
		}
	}
}

API Response when the request has been handled successfully:

{
    "success": true
}

API Response when the request has not been handled successfully:

{
    "success": false,
    "errors": {
        "INVALID_TEXT_FIELD_VALUE": {

It is important when using the full textual category paths to select the correct category path naming language. This way our platform can convert those to numerical ones. Currently Google supports the following unique languages:
