BlueConic REST API

The BlueConic REST API is an interface that provides access to BlueConic visitor profile, segment, and interaction information. Through the API you can retrieve visitor profile information as well as add properties to visitor profiles. BlueConic segments and interaction JavaScript can also be retrieved and events can be posted to a BlueConic session.

OAuth signed requests

Methods in the BlueConic REST API that require authentication must use OAuth signed requests to do so. OAuth is an open standard for authorization of requests. OAuth allows private resources to be shared between two entities without requiring username/password credentials to be supplied. BlueConic implements "two-legged OAuth" in which a client communicates directly with BlueConic and the authentication is accomplished in one step.

BlueConic only supports OAuth version 1.0a with HMAC-SHA1 as signature algorithm in the request headers.

Do not use an OAuth 2.0 library to send signed requests as these are incompatible with BlueConic.

In OAuth, the entity that grants the authorization is known as the provider and the entity requesting the authorization is known as the consumer. Each consumer is assigned a publicly known key known as the Consumer Key. The Consumer Secret, which is private for each individual consumer, paired with their Consumer Key is used to grant the authorization for access to resources. The provider knows what the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret is for each consumer. When a request for authorization is received by the provider, it checks the consumer key and consumer secret in order to verify that resources may be accessed.

Request flow

HTTP requests that require signing typically have the following flow:

  1. An application generates an HTTP request for BlueConic.
  2. The OAuth library signs the request and sends it to BlueConic.
  3. BlueConic's API Access Connection receives the request. Using an OAuth library it validates the request and generates an HTTPS response.
  4. The HTTPS response is sent to the consumer.



Consumer Secret and Consumer Key configuration

In BlueConic the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret are set up by creating a BlueConic API Access Connection. The application manager that creates this connection needs to send the developer of the external software application this information, so the developer can implement OAuth.

Signing requests

Libraries for signing requests can be downloaded here. A BlueConic java example based on Maven and Eclipse can be downloaded here.

Profile methods

The following methods allow you to create, modify, retrieve properties from and delete BlueConic visitor profiles as well as retrieve BlueConic segment information.

Create or update one or more profiles at once

Synopsis PUT https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/profiles
PUT https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/profiles?objectiveIds=objectiveID_1,objectiveID_2
Description Create or update one or more profiles in a single request. This is the recommended way of creating or updating profiles.

The format of this API call is different from other profile APIs: it only accepts a JSON body and it will return a JSON response.
Parameters The querystring of a profile bulk API request may contain an “objectiveIds” parameter. If present, these objective ID’s are matched against the consented objectives of a profile update, in case the profile is governed by one or more legislation zones.
Name Required Data Type Default Value(s) Description
objectiveIds No String null Comma separated list of objective IDs. A list of ID’s that should map on objectives that are configured in the BlueConic UI. If passed, the profiles to be updated that are in the privacy legislation zone are matched against these objectives. If there is no match, the profile won’t be updated (or created, for that matter).

If a profile would have been created/updated, but is skipped because of an objective mismatch, the response will contain a “CONSENT_MISMATCH” state for that profile.


The body of a profile bulk API request consists of an array of profile operation objects. A single profile operation object (i.e. one object in the parameters array) may have the following parameters:

Name Required Data Type Default Value(s) Description
identifier No String null any value An (external) identifier which can be passed along with an operation and is returned in the response.
matching No Object[][] null [[{id: "email", value: "test@test.com"}]] The profile properties to match. Only profile properties marked as "Unique Identifier" can be used. This is an array of arrays; the items in the outer array have an "OR" relation, the items in the inner array have an "AND" relation.
profileId No String null any BlueConic profile ID The profile ID to search for. When used, it overrides possible matching criteria.
create No Boolean "false" "true", "false" When true, creates a new profile if no profile is found matching the given criteria.
domainGroup No String "DEFAULT" any domaingroup ID Specifies the domain group in which a profile is created. Used for matching and creating profiles.
permissionLevel No String Default permission level of privacy tab "PERSONAL", "ANONYMOUS", "DO_NOT_TRACK" The permission used for creating profiles (not for matching).
privacyLegislation No String null One of the privacy legislation zone values The default privacy legislation for creating profiles (not for matching).
restriction No Object null "isMemberOfSegment": Any segment UUID The possible restriction rules when matching profiles. Only "isMemberOfSegment" is available at the moment.
properties No Object[] null [ { "id": "myproperty1", "values": ["value1", "value2"], "strategy": "ADD" } ]

The rules that will be executed on this profile.
Strategy must be one of the following types:
- ADD
- SET
- SET_IF_EMPTY
- SUM
- REMOVE

The following properties have a special meaning:
“privacy_legislation”: the value passed in this property should be one of the privacy legislation zone values, and is used to determine if a profile should be matched against the passed “objectiveIds” in the querystring.

“consented_objectives”: the value(s) passed in this property are used to match against the passed “objectiveIds” in the querystring. At least one must match in order for the profile to be created/updated, otherwise “CONSENT_MISMATCH” is returned.
“refused_objectives”: ”: the value(s) passed in this property are used to set the explicitly refused objectives
timeline No Object[] null [Event data 1, Event data 2, ...] (see below) The events that will be added to the event timeline for this profile.

Events

Events are data points tied to the BlueConic Timeline of a profile, e.g. an order the customer placed. BlueConic comes out of the box with several predefined BlueConic Timeline event types. Events can be HIGH or LOW priority. There is a maximum number of 250 events per profile allowed. LOW priority events have a time to live of 30 days. HIGH priority events are constrained by the total number of events and take precedence over LOW priority events, which are capped at 50 if there are 200 or more HIGH priority events.

Name Required Data Type Default Value(s) Description
id No String null any value An identifier to identify the event. Preferred to be unique, although it isn't required to be. If an event with the same ID is present on the profile's timeline, it will be overwritten. Note that the combination of ID, event type ID, and date uniquely identifies an event.
eventTypeId Yes String null any event type id that is defined in BlueConic The type identifier of the event. See https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/timelineEventTypes?alt=json for the list of defined event types.
source No String null any value A string to identify the source of the data. Will be set by BlueConic when known, e.g. when events are imported by a connection.
data Yes Object[] null Data structure has to match the definition of the timeline event type The event data as structured data. See Event data below.
strategy Yes String null Has to be specified. Only "SET" is currently supported. How the event will be applied to the timeline.
date No String Now   Timestamp for the event. The format of date is "2018-01-01T00:00Z" or with a timezone offset "2018-01-01T00:00+05:00". If empty, "now" will be used.

Event data

Event data is structured to the definition of the timeline event type (see https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/timelineEventTypes?alt=json). Simplified for brevity, a timeline event type definition will look something like this:

{
    "fieldTypes": [
        {
            "key": "product",
            "values": {
                "value": [
                    {
                        "key": "quantity",
                        "values": {"value": "NUMBER"}
                    },
                    {
                        "key": "netprice",
                        "values": {"value": "DECIMAL"}
                    },
                    {
                        "key": "coupon",
                        "values": {"value": "TEXT"}
                    },
                    {
                        "key": "deliverydate",
                        "values": {"value": "DATETIME"}
                    }
                ]
            }
        },
        {
            "key": "quantity",
            "values": {"value": "NUMBER"}
        }
    ],
    "id": "order",
    "name": "Order",
    "priority": "HIGH"
}

There are field types that contain key value pairs which can be nested. The data structure of the order event above boils down to something like this:

  • product
    • quantity: NUMBER
    • netprice: DECIMAL
    • coupon: TEXT
    • deliverydate: DATETIME
  • quantity: NUMBER

This then maps to the JSON event data structure to be used as value for "data". The recipe is to keep the same definition JSON structure in place, then replace "key" with "id", and replace the type string by the actual data point (e.g. replace "NUMBER" by 2, and "DECIMAL" by 3.45). Key value pairs are not mandatory and may be omitted.

{
    "id": "eb20c911-4d23-4791-a3e7-d113e7a326d9",
    "eventTypeId": "order",

              "value": [2]
            }
          }, {
            "id": "netprice",
            "values": {
              "value": [3.45]
            }
          }, {

          }, {
            "id": "deliverydate",
            "values": {
              "value": ["2020-01-23T23:45:56.789Z"]
            }
          }]
        ]
      }
    }, {
      "id": "quantity",
      "values": {
        "value": [1]
      }
    }],
    "strategy": "SET"
  }

Privacy legislation

Any “objectiveIds” passed in the querystring are matched against the profile that is being created.

Matching is done against the special profile property “consented_objectives”, which reflects the objective IDs that the profile has explicitly consented to. So, for the profile to be created, the “properties” should at least contain one of the objective IDs passed in the querystring, for the property with id “consented_objectives”. Otherwise, the “CONSENT_MISMATCH” state is returned in the response.

The following values are valid privacy legislation zone values.

Name Description
CCPA Indicates that a profile is governed by CCPA in the state of California.
GDPR Indicates that a profile is governed by GDPR in Europe.
NYPA Indicates that a profile is governed by NYPA in the state of New York.
PIPEDA Indicates that a profile is governed by PIPEDA in Canada.
SB220 Indicates that a profile is governed by SB220 in the state of Nevada.
NONE The profile is not governed by a known privacy legislation zone; profile will just be created.

Strategy

The following values are valid property rule strategies.

Name Description
ADD Values will be added to the values that already existed in the profile property. Duplicates will not be added.
SET Values will overwrite the values that already existed in the profile property.
SET_IF_EMPTY Only set values if the profile property is empty.
SUM Add the value to the value already stored in the profile property.
REMOVE Remove the value from the list of values already stored in the profile property.

This request contains two operations:

  • The first operation looks up a specific BlueConic profile by its id, then sets the property with id crm_id to 003Kz4Bsaa14. If the profile cannot be found, nothing will happen.
  • The second operation tries to find profiles that either have an email address jane@example.com or a crm_id of 002wC4BadR1w in the specified domain. If any profile is found, three properties will be set:
    • Zip codes 02111 and 02112 will be added
    • Email address will be set to jane@example.com
    • crm_id will be set to 002wC4BadR1w
    Also an order event will be added to the timeline for an order of quantity 2, net price 3.45, coupon "FREETV" and delivery date 23/1/2020 at 11:45 PM. If no match can be found, a new profile is created in the specified domain, the three properties will be set in it and the order event will be added to the timeline.

JSON Response

Every bulk operation is returned in the response as well.
The state can be one of the following values: "CREATED", "MODIFIED", "UNCHANGED", "NOTFOUND", "RESTRICTION_MISMATCH" or “CONSENT_MISMATCH”.

Generate recommendations

To work with recommendations, you will have to set up a content collector or a product collector.

Synopsis POST https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/recommendations
Description Generate BlueConic recommendations for a specific profile based on the provided parameters.
Parameter(s)
Parameter Type Name Required Data Type Default Value(s) Description
Querystring profileId No String null Any UUID The ID of the BlueConic profile.
Querystring storeId Yes String null Any UUID The ID of the content store to get the items from.
Querystring itemId No String null Any string Optional ID of the current item being shown. Some algorithms are based on this information. It also excludes this item from being returned in the result.
Querystring frequencyCap No Int Null Any number The number of times an item can be recommended to a profile before being hidden from future recommendations.
Querystring imageWidth No Int Null Any number Width of the images to return.
Querystring imageHeight No Int Null Any number Height of the images to return.
Querystring manualViewCounting No Boolean false true, false Prevent updating recommendation statistics for the recommended items. Can be used to generate offline recommendation items without influencing the profile.

The body of a recommendations request consists of a JSON array that holds one or more sets of recommendation definition objects. Each recommendation definition object contains a combination of algorithms and filters and a number of items that should be returned. This allows you to return items based on different mixes of algorithms. You can also define a default to fall back to when not enough matching recommendations can be found.

Name Required Data Type Default Value(s) Description
id Yes String null “first”, “second” or “default” The order of execution of the definition objects: “first” will be executed first, “second” will be executed next. If the total count has not been reached, the remainder items will be from the “default” definition.
boosts Yes Object[] [] [{"value": "1.5", "algorithm": "RECENCY"}] The algorithms that will be executed to determine the recommendations with their boost value and parameters.

value: Boost value can be a whole or half number: 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, …, 9.5, 10.

algorithm: Available boosting algorithms:

  • COLLABORATIVE_FILTERING
  • INTEREST
  • LOOK_ALIKE
  • RECENCY
  • RECENT_CTR
  • RECENT_ENTRYPAGE
  • RECENT_VIEW
  • RECENTLY_BOUGHT
  • RECENTLY_SHOPPINGCART
  • RECENTLY_VIEWED
  • SAME_CATEGORY

rampUp:  Ramp up value for algorithms that use it:

  • INSTANT
  • VERY_SLOW
  • SLOW
  • NORMAL
  • FAST
count No Int null Any number The maximum number of items that should be returned for this definition.
filters No String[] [] ["category:news", "viewed"] Item filters, see below.

The following boosting algorithms are supported:

Name Description Example
Breaking news Items most viewed by all visitors in the time frame defined in the collector. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": "RECENT_VIEW"}]
Viral news Items most used as a landing page by all visitors in the time frame defined in the collector. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": "RECENT_ENTRYPAGE"}]
Recency Items most recently added items based on the publication date property. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": "RECENCY"}]
Recent high CTRs Items most clicked-through from BlueConic recommendations by all visitors in the time frame defined in the collector. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": "RECENT_CTR"}]
Recently bought items Items recently bought by the provided profileId. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": "RECENTLY_BOUGHT"}]
Recently carted items Items recently put in the shopping cart by the provided profileId. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": "RECENTLY_SHOPPINGCART"}]
Same category Items of the same category as the item with the provided itemId. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": "SAME_CATEGORY" }]
Look-alike-articles Items that have similar content to the item with the provided itemId. "boosts": [{"value": 1, "algorithm": " LOOK_ALIKE" }]

REST API example

In this section an expanded example of using the BlueConic REST API is described. In the example, a visitor who already has a BlueConic profile ("Profile A") in one channel in the BlueConic universe (website) visits a different channel in the universe (mobile) and, since the visitor is not recognized, a new visitor profile is created, in this case "Profile B". The new visitor profile is then populated with segment data based on his or her activity. By retrieving the visitor's second profile and searching for a matching property/value in the other profiles, it is determined that "Profile A" and "Profile B" belong to the same visitor. The profiles are then merged into "Profile A" and "Profile B" becomes inactive:

In your merge implementation, you must decide which values to keep when both profiles contain the same property with different values. A REST method then sets the replaceBy property which specifies that "Profile A" replaces "Profile B". From then on, the visitor's active BlueConic profile is "Profile A". "Profile B" is kept but no longer updated:

Retrieve the profile ID for "Profile B" from the cookie request

The visitor with "Profile B" sends a cookie request (BCSessionID) to the mobile channel. The ID from "Profile B" is retrieved from the request.

For example:

In this case, the profile ID from the cookie is:

99db747f-2061-43d3-a508-76a977a18ba4

Retrieve the visitor profile

Now that we have the BlueConic ID of "Profile B", we can retrieve the BlueConic profile (99db747f-2061-43d3-a508-76a977a18ba4):

GET https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/profiles/99db747f-2061-43d3-a508-76a977a18ba4

Returns:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<profile>
  <id>99db747f-2061-43d3-a508-76a977a18ba4</id>
  <properties>
    <property>
      <id>email</id>
      <values>
        <value>jsmith@blueconic.com</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>clickcount</id>
      <values>
        <value>11</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>device</id>
      <values>
        <value>iPhone</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>country</id>
      <values>
      <value>Netherlands</value>
      </values>
    </property>
  </properties>
</profile>

Retrieve the BlueConic profile ID(s) with the matching email address

Now that we know the email address, we can retrieve other BlueConic profile(s) based on the known property to see if there are any other profiles containing the same email address. Note: A property must be indexed (unique) in order to be retrievable using this method.

GET https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/profiles?alt=xml&property=email&value=jsmith@blueconic.com

Returns:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<profiles total="2">
  <profile>
    <id>1af1a5ac-0fbb-40eb-91ff-f9909b3fb2d6</id>
  </profile>
  <profile>
    <id>99db747f-2061-43d3-a508-76a977a18na4</id>
  </profile>
</profiles>

Retrieve the profile that matches the property

In the previous step we retrieved the profile ID(s) that match the specified email address. You can now retrieve the profile that matches the profile ("Profile A" in this case).

GET https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/profile/1af1a5ac-0fbb-40eb-91ff-f9909b3fb2d6

Returns:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<profile>
  <id>1af1a5ac-0fbb-40eb-91ff-f9909b3fb2d6</id>
  <properties>
    <property>
      <id>name</id>
      <values>
        <value>John Smith</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>email</id>
      <values>
        <value>jsmith@blueconic.com</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>visitclicks</id>
      <values>
        <value>7</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>preferences</id>
      <values>
        <value>Football</value>
        <value>Ajax</value>
      </values>
    </property>
  </properties>
</profile>

Merge profiles

Now that know that the two profiles belong to the same visitor, we can merge the profiles. To do so, the values from one profile are added to the other in a merge operation. In addition to merging the values, you must also indicate which profile is the primary or main profile, that is, the one that contains all profile properties that have been gathered by both profiles. Once you determine which profile will be the main profile, you indicate in the profile that will become inactive, the ID of the main profile that replaces it. All future requests for the inactive profile are rerouted to the main profile. You must decide in your implementation the criteria that determine which profile becomes the primary, main profile.

Using the PUT https://yourserver.blueconic.net/rest/profiles/ method, you can individually write all the desired properties present in "Profile B" to "Profile A" using name/value pairs.

The result:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<profile>
  <id>1af1a5ac-0fbb-40eb-91ff-f9909b3fb2d6</id>
  <properties>
    <property>
      <id>name</id>

    <property>
      <id>email</id>
      <values>

    <property>
      <id>visitclicks</id>
      <values>
        <value>7</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>preferences</id>
      <values>
        <value>Football</value>
        <value>Ajax</value>

    </property>
    <property>
      <id>clickcount</id>
      <values>
        <value>11</value>
      </values>
    </property>
    <property>
      <id>device</id>
      <values>
        <value>iPhone</value>

    <property>

      <values>
      <value>Netherlands</value>
      </values>
    </property>
  </properties>
</profile>

Replace "Profile B" with "Profile A"

Now that the properties are merged into "Profile A", you want to indicate in "Profile B" that it has been replaced by "Profile A". As a result, all future requests for "Profile B" will be routed to "Profile A". The following method replaces "Profile B" with "Profile A", in the body, you include the "replaceBy" parameter and the ID of the profile that replaces the current profile. In this case profile ID 1af1a5ac-0fbb-40eb-91ff-f9909b3fb2d6 replaces 99db747f-2061-43d3-a508-76a977a18ba4:
