API Documentation for كوانتم sponsored product Ads

Introduction

The Quantum API provides a comprehensive suite of tools to manage and operate sponsored product listing campaigns. These APIs allow you to:

Create, manage, and delete sponsored product listing campaigns.
Generate detailed reports, including impressions, clicks, and conversions.
Implement advanced targeting using demographic and geographic filters.
Retrieve available ad inventory and place bids for product listings.

Note: The APIs for sponsored product listings are identical to those for other ad types. However, the responsibility for displaying the sponsored products within the partner’s e-commerce platform lies with the partner’s implementation.

This documentation is structured to ensure a seamless integration experience for developers.

Cross-Sell Ads

How It Works:

Cross-sell campaigns rely on associating complementary products with the primary product. These associations are defined through tags and productList configurations.

Configuration Details:

name	string	Yes	Name of the cross-sell campaign.
dailyBudget	number	Yes	Daily budget allocated for the campaign.
totalBudget	number	Yes	Total budget for the campaign.
impressionBid	number	Yes	Cost-per-impression bid amount.
startAt	string	Yes	Start date and time for the campaign (ISO 8601).
endAt	string	Yes	End date and time for the campaign (ISO 8601).
tags	array	Yes	Tags to associate products and targeting filters.
description	string	No	Description of the campaign objective.
productList	array	Yes	List of complementary product IDs.

Example Request:

				
					curl -X POST "http://localhost:5068/campaigns" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-d '{
  "name": "Cross-Sell Campaign",
  "dailyBudget": 1500,
  "totalBudget": 20000,
  "impressionBid": 8,
  "startAt": "2024-12-01T00:00:00Z",
  "endAt": "2024-12-31T23:59:59Z",
  "tags": [["category:electronics", "region:ksa"]],
  "description": "Promoting accessories for electronics buyers",
  "productList": ["product-headphone-id", "product-case-id"]
}'

Expected Response:

				
					{
  "id": "c1f27c2e-b1e4-4e6b-8d1a-9086e7d7d9b9",
  "name": "Cross-Sell Campaign",
  "dailyBudget": 1500,

  "startAt": "2024-12-01T00:00:00Z",
  "endAt": "2024-12-31T23:59:59Z"
}

Upsell Ads

الهدف: Encourage customers to upgrade to higher-value products. For example, promoting a premium laptop to users viewing an entry-level laptop.

How It Works:

dailyBudget	number	Yes	Daily budget allocated for the campaign.
totalBudget	number	Yes	Total budget for the campaign.
impressionBid	number	Yes	Cost-per-impression bid amount.

-d '{
  "name": "Upsell Campaign",

  "description": "Upselling premium laptops to buyers of entry-level laptops",
  "productList": ["product-premium-laptop-id"]
}'
