API request - Budget change

[Deniz Yücel]

Hey,

i am working on an automatic budget updater for our Outbrain campaigns and i want to make a PUT request where i am using https://api.outbrain.com/amplify/v0.1/budgets/{{1.`0`}} URL where the "{{1.`0`}}" is budget ID retrieved from Outbrain. And the body i send is (1.`3` is new budget amount):

{
  "budget": {
    "amount": {{1.`3`}}, 
    "type": "DAILY"
  }
}

However i cannot get to succeed here, could you help me with how i can make budget update requests to the system?

Thank you so much!

Best,

Deniz

Hi Deniz,

You'll need to modify the body slightly for the update to be successful. It should be structured like this:

{

  "amount": {{your_new_budget}},

  "type": "DAILY"

}

Remember to replace {{your_new_budget}} with your desired value.

Best,

Hey Kaja,

Thank you so much for your return! I am still getting errors and therefore I wanted to ask if my url is correct or how I put the OB Token for authorization.

Here is my request URL: https://api.outbrain.com/amplify/v0.1/campaigns/X/budget - I am not sure if the X should be campaign ID or budget ID

And as addition, 

my Header name: Authorization 

Header body: OB-TOKEN-V1 <value>

Thank you so much and wish you a nice day!

Best,

Deniz

Hi Deniz,

You should try this request URL, where X is budget ID: https://api.outbrain.com/amplify/v0.1/budgets/X

The OB Token for authorisation appears to be correct. I am using Postman where, in the Headers, the key is OB-TOKEN-V1, and the value is the token. Let me know if the errors still occur.

Best,

  "amount": {{your_new_budget}},

  "type": "DAILY"

} "

Thank you so much again and wish you a great evening!

Hi Deniz,

To update the CPC, you'll need to initiate an additional request to this endpoint. Include the new CPC value in the request body, formatted as follows:

{

  "cpc": {{new_cpc}}

}

Hi Kaja,

Hope you are well! Thanks a lot again for all your help, I wanted to ask something. Recently I got errors for my cpc change request and it says it has a malfunctioned request body, is there any change in your system that I need to send to a different body? Thank you so much!

{

  "cpc": {{new_cpc}}

}

Best regards,

Deniz

Hi Deniz,

I noticed I did not send the endpoint you should be calling when trying to update the cpc, so just to be on the same page, it is this one. And if that is the one you use, I'm not aware of any changes in our system regarding the cpc change. Could you send me some screenshots of the error and the setup of the call you have on your side (including full body and endpoint you are calling). 

Best regards,

Kaja
