API Problem with Links

    • MaryF
    • Topic created 14 years ago

    Since yesterday, the links for all races from the Search API look like this:
    http://www.tantracking.com/click.track?CID=141770&AFID=56210&1=running&2=fountain-hills-az&3=josephs-appraisal-group-10k-run-2011&cmp=10-2

    This is new, they used to start with http://www.active.com/whatever

    And they ALL cause an error. Not one of these links works for me. I have tried on 2 different computers. One with Windows Vista and IE 8. The other with Windows XP and Chrome.

    What is going on? Will this be fixed soon?

    Sorry about that! This affected your account only as we've switched on our new affiliate program for you. The links now resolve correctly, although they will follow the new format beginning with tantracking from now on. Gina will be reaching out to you guys shortly to talk more about the program.

    It is still not working. Gina said something about an AFID key. I have changed nothing with how we are using the API. None of the links are working, they all result in an error. What am I doing wrong?

    Sorry about that. Your affiliateID had been reset to "false". I set it back to the proper value. Give it about 15 minutes for the cache to clear. Thanks for your patience while we get this new program off the ground!

    Is there a way to get involved in the affiliate program? I'd like to get added as one for my campground app if possible. Thanks.

    No problem. Shoot an email to allison dot reutter at active dot com and she'll take care of you.

    what is the significance of the cmp=10-2 at the end of the url above? I noticed that sometimes I see cmp=10-1 and sometimes cmp=10-2.

    That is a campaign code for our web analytics tool to denote whether or not an API referral comes from an affiliate or not.
