Engage API Requests

Engage Digital provides a REST JSON API to retrieve, create data and manipulate data from third party applications.

Test in your browser

The Engage API can easily be tested from any web browser or command line terminal.

Using this Guide

Throughout this Developer Guide you will see sample endpoint URLs. These URLs all contain a placeholder string of [YOUR DOMAIN]. When developing, be sure to replace this string with your assigned domain.

Building an HTTP Request

Scheme and hostname

Request must be done with https scheme. Hostname is determined from your application name. If your application name is "example," then the API hostname will be: example.api.engagement.dimelo.com.

HTTP method

URL path

All API paths is prefixed by /1.0. This is the version of Engage Digital Rest API.

Multiple parameters

Some API methods described below take extra parameters. Some of them are multiple (example: category_ids, tags_ids or some custom fields). You must add double brackets [], after the parameters name.

Examples:

  • ?firstname=john&category_ids[]=4242&category_ids[]=2854
  • tag_ids[]=1&tag_ids[]=2
  • custom_field_values[multiple_custom_field_key][]=value1&custom_field_values[multiple_custom_field_key][]=value2&custom_field_values[multiple_custom_field_key][]=value3
