  description: >
    The Scaleo Public API gives external systems the same capabilities as the

    dashboard, organised by user role — **Advertiser**, **Affiliate**, and

    **Manager** — plus shared reference data.


    Use the sidebar guides to get started:


    | Guide | Covers |

    |---|---|

    | [Authentication](#tag/Authentication) | API keys, role scoping |

    | [Errors](#tag/Errors) | Response envelope, error codes |

    | [Pagination](#tag/Pagination) | List params, pagination headers |

    | [Versioning](#tag/Versioning) | Version prefix, compatibility |

    | [Conventions](#tag/Conventions) | Timestamps, IDs, currencies |


    ## Quick start


    Authenticate with your API key using the `X-API-Key` HTTP header
    (preferred):


    ```

    GET https://your-domain.scaleo.io/api/v2/affiliate/profile

    X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY

    ```


    The legacy `api-key` query parameter is still accepted but **deprecated** —
    see

    [Authentication](#tag/Authentication) for migration details.


    Every response uses a consistent JSON envelope:


    ```json

    {
      "message": "OK",
      "success": true,
      "info":    { }
    }

    ```


    `success` is `true` for 2xx responses and `false` for errors.

    See [Errors](#tag/Errors) for the full format and error codes.


    ## Roles


    | Role | Endpoint prefix |

    |---|---|

    | Manager | `/api/v2/network/...` |

    | Advertiser | `/api/v2/advertiser/...` |

    | Affiliate | `/api/v2/affiliate/...` |


    Each API key is bound to one role and cannot call endpoints of another role.

      The Scaleo Public API exposes the same data and operations available in
      the

      web dashboard, organised by user role — **Advertiser**, **Affiliate**, and

      **Manager** — plus a small set of shared resources.


      It is a REST API. All endpoints accept and return JSON, except for binary

      download endpoints (invoice PDFs, creative assets) which return raw file
      data.


      ## What you can do


      | Role | Capabilities |

      |---|---|

      | **Advertisers** | Offers, profile, statistics. |

      | **Affiliates** | Offers, campaigns, payouts, click/conversion/referral
      stats. |

      | **Managers** | Full administration: advertisers, affiliates, offers,
      billing, tracking, reporting. |

      | **All roles** | Shared reference data — countries, categories, tags,
      tiers. |


      ## URL conventions


      | URL prefix | Role |

      |---|---|

      | `/api/v2/network/...` | Manager |

      | `/api/v2/advertiser/...` | Advertiser |

      | `/api/v2/affiliate/...` | Affiliate |


      `{id}` in paths is a numeric resource ID. All timestamps are ISO 8601 UTC.


      ## Where to start


      1. Read **Authentication** in the sidebar and obtain an API key.

      2. Read **Errors** to understand the response envelope.

      3. Try `GET /api/v2/affiliate/profile` (or the equivalent for your role)
         to verify your key works.
      4. Browse the role-scoped sections for the endpoints relevant to your
      integration.


      ## Support


      For integration support, contact your account manager or

      [support@scaleo.io](mailto:support@scaleo.io).
  - name: Authentication
    x-displayName: Authentication
    description: >
      All Public API requests are authenticated with an **API key**. Pass it in

      the `X-API-Key` HTTP request header — this is the **preferred** method:


      ```

      GET https://your-domain.scaleo.io/api/v2/affiliate/profile

      X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY

      ```


      The user account that owns the key must have `api_status` enabled.


      ## Deprecated: `api-key` query parameter


      The `api-key` URL query parameter is still accepted for backwards

      compatibility but is **deprecated** and will be removed in a future
      release:


      ```

      GET
      https://your-domain.scaleo.io/api/v2/affiliate/profile?api-key=YOUR_KEY

      ```


      :::warning Deprecated

      Migrate to the `X-API-Key` header. Support for the `api-key` query
      parameter

      will be removed approximately 6 months after this notice.

      :::


      ## Role scoping


      Each API key is bound to a specific user role and **cannot** call
      endpoints

      outside that role:


      | Role | Endpoint prefix |

      |---|---|

      | Manager | `/api/v2/network/...` |

      | Advertiser | `/api/v2/advertiser/...` |

      | Affiliate | `/api/v2/affiliate/...` |


      Calling an endpoint with the wrong role's key returns `403 Forbidden`.


      ## Where to find your key


      * **Affiliate / Advertiser** — dashboard → **Profile → API**.

      * **Manager** — admin panel → **Users → Managers → {user} → API**.


      Keys can be regenerated at any time. Regeneration invalidates the previous

      key immediately.


      ## Security best practices


      :::tip

      The `X-API-Key` header keeps your API key out of URLs, request logs, and

      browser history — always prefer the header over the query parameter.

      :::


      * Use **HTTPS** only — HTTP does not protect the key in transit.

      * If a key is leaked, rotate it from the dashboard immediately.

      * For server-to-server integrations, store keys in a secrets manager
        (e.g. AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault) rather than in source control.
  - name: Errors
    x-displayName: Errors
    description: >
      Every Public API response uses the same JSON envelope regardless of
      whether

      the request succeeded:


      ```json

      {
        "message": "OK",
        "success": true,
        "info":    { }
      }

      ```


      | Field | Description |

      |---|---|

      | `message` · string | Human-readable result summary. |

      | `success` · boolean | `true` for 2xx, `false` for errors. |

      | `info` · object | Payload. Omitted when the response carries no data. |


      :::info

      The HTTP status code is the authoritative signal. `success` is a
      convenience

      for clients that cannot easily inspect HTTP status codes.

      :::


      ## Standard error responses


      | HTTP status | When you see it |

      |---|---|

      | `400 Bad Request` | Invalid JSON, unknown parameter, or malformed
      request. |

      | `401 Unauthorized` | Missing or invalid API key (`X-API-Key` header or
      `api-key` query param), or `api_status` disabled. |

      | `403 Forbidden` | Key is valid but belongs to a different role. |

      | `404 Not Found` | Resource not found or not visible to this account. |

      | `422 Unprocessable Entity` | Validation failed — see `info.errors`. |

      | `500 Internal Server Error` | Server-side problem. Retry with backoff. |


      ## Validation errors (422)


      When validation fails the server returns `422`. Each key in `info.errors`

      is the failing field name; the value is an array of error strings:


      ```json

      {
        "message": "Validation error",
        "success": false,
        "info": {
          "errors": {
            "email":    ["Email cannot be blank."],
            "currency": ["Currency must be a valid ISO code."]
          }
        }
      }

      ```


      ## Retry guidance


      * `4xx` — client problem, fix the request before retrying.

      * `5xx` — transient server problem. Retry with exponential backoff
        (start 1 s, max 60 s, add 0–25% jitter).
      * `GET` and `PUT` on a known resource are always safe to retry.
  - name: Pagination
    x-displayName: Pagination
    description: >
      List endpoints support consistent query parameters for pagination,

      filtering, and sorting.


      ## Pagination parameters


      | Parameter | Default / Max |

      |---|---|

      | `page` · integer | default `1` |

      | `perPage` · integer | default `10`, max `1000` |


      :::info Pagination metadata is in response headers, not in the body.

      :::


      Paginated responses carry metadata in **HTTP response headers**:


      | Header | Value |

      |---|---|

      | `X-Pagination-Current-Page` | Current page number |

      | `X-Pagination-Total-Count` | Total items across all pages |

      | `X-Pagination-Page-Count` | Total number of pages |

      | `X-Pagination-Per-Page` | Page size used for this request |


      Example response for a list endpoint:


      ```json

      {
        "message": "Affiliates List",
        "success": true,
        "info": {
          "affiliates": []
        }
      }

      ```


      With HTTP headers:


      ```

      X-Pagination-Current-Page: 2

      X-Pagination-Total-Count: 137

      X-Pagination-Page-Count: 7

      X-Pagination-Per-Page: 20

      ```


      ## Sorting


      | Parameter | Values |

      |---|---|

      | `sortField` | endpoint-specific field name |

      | `sortDirection` | `asc` (default) \| `desc` |


      ```

      GET
      /api/v2/network/affiliates?sortField=created_at&sortDirection=desc&page=1&perPage=50

      ```


      ## Filtering


      | Parameter | Meaning |

      |---|---|

      | `field=value` | Exact match — e.g. `status=1` |

      | `field[]=v1&field[]=v2` | Match any value — e.g.
      `country[]=US&country[]=GB` |

      | `field_from` / `field_to` | Date or numeric range |

      | `q` | Full-text search |


      ## Date format


      All date and datetime filters accept ISO 8601. If no timezone is given,

      UTC is assumed.


      * Date only: `2026-01-20`

      * Datetime UTC: `2026-01-20T13:45:00Z`
  - name: Versioning
    x-displayName: Versioning
    description: >
      The Public API uses a path-based version prefix.


      | Version | Status | Prefix |

      |---|---|---|

      | **v2** | Stable, default | `/api/v2/...` |


      ## Compatibility policy


      * **Additive changes** (new fields, new endpoints) can appear without
      notice. Clients must tolerate unknown fields.

      * **Breaking changes** require a new major version, announced with a
      minimum 6-month deprecation window.

      * **Bug fixes** that alter response shape are treated as breaking.
  - name: Conventions
    x-displayName: Conventions
    description: >
      Conventions used across the entire Public API.


      ## Time and dates


      All timestamps are **ISO 8601 in UTC** unless explicitly noted:


      ```

      2026-01-20T13:45:00Z

      ```


      Date-only fields (report ranges, billing periods) use `YYYY-MM-DD`.


      ## Identifiers


      * Resource IDs are positive integers.

      * Country IDs use **GeoNames** numeric IDs:
        `6252001` (US), `2635167` (GB).
        Full list: `GET /api/v2/common/lists/countries`.

      ## Currencies and monetary values


      * Currency codes follow **ISO 4217**: `USD`, `EUR`, `GBP`.

      * Monetary amounts have up to 4 decimal places: `12.5000`.
        Display rounding is the client's responsibility.

      ## Status values


      Many resources use a numeric `status` field:


      | Value | Meaning |

      |---|---|

      | `1` | Active |

      | `2` | Disabled / Inactive |

      | `3` | Pending review |

      | `4` | Rejected |


      Per-endpoint documentation lists the exact allowed values and

      any resource-specific additions.


      ## Booleans


      JSON booleans are always native `true` / `false`. Some legacy filters

      accept `1` / `0` as a fallback — prefer native booleans.


      ## Null and empty values


      * Optional fields absent from the record are returned as `null`, not
      omitted.

      * Empty collections are returned as `[]` (arrays) or `{}` (objects).

      * In `POST` / `PUT` bodies: sending `null` clears the field; omitting the
        key keeps the current value (unless noted in the endpoint description).

      ## Localisation


      Display strings (offer names, descriptions, creative captions) are
      returned

      in the network's configured primary language. There is no per-request
      locale

      override.
