API Documentation

This document is for version 1 of the API.

Introduction

The Mobiniti API is a REST API. It is designed to have predictable, resource-oriented URLs and to use HTTP response codes to indicate API errors. We use built-in HTTP features, HTTP verbs, which can be understood by off-the-shelf HTTP clients. JSON will be returned in all responses from the API, including errors (though if you’re using one of our libraries, we will use exceptions to indicate an error).

Authentication

Overview

In order for an application to access the Mobiniti API, it needs to have a valid access token. The token is generated when a Mobiniti customer grants the application access to their account. An access token is currently valid for a period of 10 years, and the application needs to use it for each API call to the user’s Mobiniti resources. In simplest terms, you register your application with Mobiniti, parse a token from an HTTP response, and send the token to the Mobiniti API you wish to access. OAuth 2.0 lets a user authorize your application to access their private Mobiniti resources without having to share their log in credentials with your application.The OAuth 2.0 flows requires the following, which you can find in your Mobiniti account after you have registered for an account.

  1. Login to your Mobiniti account.

  2. Go to your settings page, click the integrations tab.

  3. Scroll down to the applications section, click ‘Create new application’ in the top right.

  4. Enter an application name and the redirect url (located on your server) and click 'Create Application’.

  5. A client id, consumer secret will be generated for you which are used to authenticate the application with Mobiniti.

Once the app is authenticated, and the Mobiniti user grants access to their account, the app receives an access_token to use when making API calls to that user’s account resources. The Mobiniti API supports the Server (authorization code) OAuth 2.0 authentication flows.

Request Permissions

Implementation Details

The OAuth2-specific endpoints you’ll need to worry about:

OAuth 2.0 Server Flow

The OAuth 2.0 server authentication flow is used whenever a Mobiniti account uses your integration for the first time. The Mobiniti user must login to their account and give permission to your application to access their Mobiniti account. The Server Authentication flow consists of 2 main transactions:

  • The app makes an authorization request.

    • The authorization server responds with an authorization code.
  • The app then makes an access token request using the authorization code.

  • The authorization server responds with an access token.

Authorization Request

Parameter Values Required Description
response_type code YES A value of code tells the authentication server it is sending an authorization code to a web server. It MUST be the code for server applications. (Scopes are below)
client_id YOUR_CLIENT_ID YES Identifies the app that is making the request to the server; this parameter MUST always be set to the exact value of the client id provider when creating an application.
redirect_uri YOUR_REDIRECT_URL YES Tells the Authorization Server where to send the user once access is granted. This must be the same redirect_uri that is associated with your applications when it was created.
scope Scopes YES A space delimited list of scopes
Scopes
campaigns.create campaigns.delete campaigns.update
campaigns.view contacts.create contacts.delete
contacts.update contacts.view coupons.create
coupons.delete coupons.update coupons.view
groups.create groups.delete groups.update
groups.view messages.create messages.unread.view
messages.update messages.view message.schedule.view
message.schedule.create message.schedule.update message.schedule.delete
optins.view phone-numbers.lookup carriers.view

Authorization Response

If the user grants the access request, the authorization server issues an authorization code and delivers it by adding it to the query component of the redirection URI.

Field Description
code Unique 27 character authorization code generated for the request. It is valid for 10 minutes, and must be exchanged for an access token in order to make API calls.
error Error label and description if an error condition is detected in the authentication request.

Access Token Request

After the application receives the authorization code, it must exchange it for an access token by making a call to the Token endpoint.

  1. The application requests an access token from the Mobiniti authentication server, providing its client_id, client_secret, redirect_URI and the authorization_code.

  2. The authorization server validates the client credentials, the authorization code, and the redirect_URI (it must match the redirect_uri used in the Authorization Request exactly, including any parameters added). If the validation is successful, the authorization server sends back an access token. The application needs to retain the access token and use it when making API calls on behalf of the user.

Parameter Values Required Description
grant_type authorization_code YES This parameter MUST always be set to 'authorization_code’
client_id your_API_KEY YES This parameter MUST always be set to the value of your_API_KEY
client_secret your_client_secret YES This parameter MUST always be set to the your_client_secret value associated with the API_key.
code unique_code YES MUST be set to the authorization code provided in the Authorization request response.
redirect_uri your_encoded_redirect_URI YES It must match the redirect URI used in the authorization request, including any parameters.

Access Token Response

Field Description
access_token hyphenated hexadecimal string used to make API calls to a users account.
expires_in 315359999 seconds - Tokens are currently valid for 10 years
token_type This is always set to Bearer

Personal Access Token

If you would like a quick way to experiment with the API or don't have a need for the authorization code redirect flow, you can create a personal access token.

Once you're logged in, use the following steps to generate a personal access token.

  1. Navigate to Settings -> Integrations tab -> Personal Access Tokens.

  2. Click "Create New Token" in the upper right corner of the Personal Access Tokens subsection.

  3. Enter a meaningful name for your reference in the future.

  4. Choose the scopes you would like to grant to this token.

  5. Click the "Create" button.

  6. A popup will display your new token, it will only be shown once so make sure it's stored in a safe place.

Filtering, Ordering & Pagination

Filtering

This API can filter returned collections based on provided query parameters.

For example, when requesting a list of contacts from the /v1/contacts endpoint, you may want to limit these to only those of a specific reward points. This could be accomplished with a request like GET /v1/contacts?filter[reward_points]=10.

Ordering

This API can sort returned collections. A generic query parameter sort is used to describe sorting rules. This parameter can take a list of comma separated field, each with a possible unary negative to imply descending sort order.

E.g. GET /v1/messages?sort=-created_at - Retrieves a list of messages in descending order by creation date.

Includes

On certain endpoints you can choose to include additional data by specifying an include query parameter.

E.g. GET /v1/groups/f82e541a-a4b1-11e8-a85f-127fd0971098/contacts?include[]=status&include[]=fields - Retrieves a list of contacts with the corresponding status and custom fields for each contact.

Pagination

To do pagination for list resources, the query string in the url should be used. The two parameters are ‘limit’ and ‘page’ with the default and max number of results being 100.

Example: GET /v1/groups/limit=20 - This will return 20 results per page. Under the ‘meta’ -> ‘pagination’ in the api response will have a few fields that are used for pagination. Total is the total number of records, per_page is essentially the limit parameter from the url. current_page and total_pages are self explanatory.

Under ‘links’ are the ‘next’ and ‘previous’ keys which are in the url to use and retrieve the next page of results. When paginating you can check if those keys exist.

curl https://api.mobiniti.com/v1/groups?limit=2

HTTP Methods

This API uses HTTP verbs (methods) as following:

  • GET - Read - used to read (or retrieve) a representation of a resource,

  • POST - Create - used to create new resources. In particular, it's used to create subordinate resources.

  • PUT - Update/Replace - used for update capabilities, PUT-ing to a known resource URI with the request body containing the newly-updated representation of the original resource. On successful request, replaces identified resource with the request body.

  • PATCH - Update/Modify - used for modify capabilities. The PATCH request only needs to contain the changes to the resource, not the complete resource.

  • DELETE - Delete - used to delete a resource identified by a URI.

Media Type

Where applicable this API MUST use the JSON content-type. Requests with a message-body are using plain JSON to set or update resource states.

Content-type: application/json and Accept: application/json headers SHOULD be set on all requests if not stated otherwise.

Representation of Date and Time

All exchange of date and time-related data MUST be done according to ISO 8601 standard and stored in UTC.

When returning date and time-related data YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.SSSZ format MUST be used.

Resource IDs

The ‘id’ fields will always be a UUID

Example

f82e541a-a4b1-11e8-a85f-127fd0971098

Status Codes and Errors

The Mobiniti API uses HTTP status codes to communicate with the API consumer.

  • 200 OK - Response to a successful GET, PUT, PATCH or DELETE.

  • 201 Created - Response to a POST that results in a creation.

  • 204 No Content - Response to a successful request that won't be returning a body (like a DELETE request).

  • 400 Bad Request - Malformed request; form validation errors.

  • 401 Unauthorized - When no or invalid authentication details are provided.

  • 402 Payment Required - You need to pay for campaign or contact messages.

  • 403 Forbidden - When authentication succeeded but authenticated user doesn't have access to the resource.

  • 404 Not Found - When a non-existent resource is requested.

  • 405 Method Not Allowed - Method not allowed.

  • 406 Not Acceptable - Could not satisfy the request Accept header.

  • 415 Unsupported Media Type - Unsupported media type in request.

  • 422 Unprocessable Entity - Usually a validation error.

  • 429 Too Many Requests - Rate limit reached.

  • 500 Internal Server Error - An error occurred on our server.

  • 503 Service Unavailable - We’re temporarily offline for maintenance. Please try again later.

  • 504 Gateway Timeout' - A 3rd party service has timed out. Please try again later.

Error response

The Mobiniti API returns both, machine-readable error codes and human-readable error messages in response body when an error is encountered.

Example

Validation Error
{
    "status": 422,
    "message": "A validation error occurred",
    "errors": {
        "phone_number": [
            "The contact already exists."
        ]
    }
}
Generic Error
{
    "status": 400,
    "message": "An error has occurred with your request and is unable to be processed.",
    "errors": {}
}

Request ID's

Each API request has an associated request id. You can find this in the response headers, under X-Request-Id. If you need to contact us regarding a specific request, this id can be helpful for debugging purposes.

Rate Limits

All requests to the API are rate limited to 1 request per second for each route. Each response contains 2 headers that can be used to manage the rate limit.

Header Value
X-RateLimit-Limit 60
X-RateLimit-Remaining 59

If the rate limit is exceeded, a HTTP status code of 429 will be returned.
