Hi Richard,

I'll look into it for you - i've not coded an API module for shopping.com as yet..

Cheers,
David.

Hi again,

Looks straight forward actually...

http://developer.shopping.com/docs/API_Use_Cases#1

Would you know where to go to find your "apiKey" and "trackingId"?

Cheers,
David.

Hi David,

Yes I have an APIkey and tracking ID, these are given when you create an account.

Thanks
Richard

Hi Richard,

I think we're there!

Click here to download, and unzip shopping.php to your local computer. Open the file and edit the following lines at the top of the script as required before uploading to your site:

  $shoppingApiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY";
  $shoppingTrackingId = "YOUR_TRACKING_ID";

Results can be added to both search.php and products.php. In both files, to include shopping.com results at the end of the page, look for the the following code towards the end of the script:

  require("html/footer.php");

...and REPLACE this with:

  require("shopping.php");
  require("html/footer.php");

Cheers,
David.

Hello David, I am trying to implement the same API tracking from Commission Junction. I have a API key and a tracking id from cj. Could the above file also be used on CJ's API? The CJ API information is found on http://webservices.cj.com/getting_started/ .

If not could you also provide a cj.php file?

Thank you,
Roy

Hi Roy,

I'll take a look for you - the Commission Junction API isn't so straight forward i'm afraid as you are required to construct an HTTP header etc. rather than being able to make a simple GET request - but i'll check it out...

Cheers,
David.

Hi David
Well I will open the flood gates. I don't have a shopping.com api but I do have a shopzilla api have you ever looked into their api?

On another subject I got your email the other day on another matter and it worked great.

Thank You
Dean
