Contact Insight Integration Endpoints

Contact Insight® endpoints must be configured in such a way that the URL component can be changed at the runtime to accommodate the future changes to the service. The end point consists of server address, method, and query parameters.

Server Address

The server address element of the URL is the address of the Acoustic Campaign Pod where the host's database instance resides. Select the appropriate address for the host's database:
POD number POD address
POD 1 http://engage1.silverpop.com
POD 2 http://engage2.silverpop.com
POD 3 http://engage3.silverpop.com
POD 4 http://engage4.silverpop.com
POD 5 http://engage5.silverpop.com
POD 6 http://engage6.silverpop.com
POD 7 http://engage7.silverpop.com
POD 8 http://engage8.silverpop.com
POD 9 http://engage9.silverpop.com
Pod A http://engageA.silverpop.com

Method

The method element of the URL is the instruction communicating method to be used by the server. There are two main methods for Contact Insight:

  • https://endpoint/oauth/token that is used to acquire a valid access token.
  • https://endpoint/mashup/oauth/contact/contactInsight that is used to get the Contact Insight application.

The query parameters consist of more than one part, including the number of oAuth tokens and necessary parameters that the method needs to properly execute its function.

  • The getAccessToken method must be invoked by using a HTTP POST and embed the parameters into the BODY of the request.
  • The contactInsight method can be invoked by using HTTP GET by constructing the URL with the parameters that are embedded in the connect string.
