The Report Tracked Events by Campaign command allows you to return a list of contacts for any tracked event in a date range for a specific campaign.
NOTE: As of revision 13.0.0, the rpt_tracked_events_by_campaign command no longer supports returning all events in a single call. You must use the specific event type ID, found in Event Types.
The Report Tracked Events by Campaign command requires the following arguments: Command, Realm, Password, Campaign ID, Event Type, Offset, Start (From) Date, and End (To) Date:
api_web?r=myrealm&p=mypass&c=rpt_tracked_events_by_campaign&campaign_id=11&event_type=0&offset=0&start_datetime=06/20/2012%2000:00:00&end_datetime=06/20/2012%2011:59:59
The command is ‘rpt_tracked_events_by_campaign’, the realm is ‘myrealm’ and the password is ‘mypass’. The command will return every tracked event that occured for campaign_id '11' from 12:00 am on June 20, 2012 to just before midnight on the same day starting with the first result (offset=0). The report will include the first 250 events with the following details:
"campaign_id","campaign_alias","list_id","list_name","subscriber_id","email","first_name","last_name","event_date","event_type"
Example
Using all commands and arguments (please note the command is wrapped for display purposes only):
api_web?c=rpt_tracked_events_by_campaign&r=myrealm&p=mypass&campaign_id=11&event_type=9&offset=0&start_datetime=06/20/2012%2000:00:00&end_datetime=06/20/2012%2011:59:59&version=8.4.0&output_format=csv&headers=1
Successful results return:
"campaign_id","campaign_alias","list_id","list_name","subscriber_id","email","first_name","last_name","event_date","event_type","meta_data","tracking_id"
"11","","80","List","13","jack@myemail.com","Jack","Sprat","2012-06-20 10:48:25","9","","32" "11","","80","List","14","jane@myemail.com","Jane","Doe","2012-06-20 10:48:25","11","http://www.mysite.com","33"
Some systems have the ability to define a unique Customer Key per contact. If your realm has Customer Key enabled, and additional column "customer_key" will be included in the results.
Results
The Report Tracked Events by Campaign command outputs either the results of the search or a FAILURE message.
SUCCESS
The Report Tracked Events by Campaign command does not explicitly return a Success code. Instead, it outputs the campaign id, list name, subject, date sent, and number of recipients in plain text format. Use the output_format argument to return the following data results in an alternate format:
"campaign_id","campaign_alias","list_id","list_name","subscriber_id","email","first_name","last_name","event_date","event_type","meta_data","tracking_id"
FAILURE
A Report Tracked Events by Campaign command will fail for several reasons, such as if the date is invalid or the campaign doesn't exist. The result format is:
FAILURE: [Reason]
