Troubleshooting with Zapier & the REST API

An important concept to keep in mind when creating affiliates in Zapier or through the REST API is that affiliates can participate in multiple programs.

If you do not indicate a program to add the affiliate to, they will be archived.

Zapier

To create new affiliates using Zapier, the following actions must take place: 

  • Action in "x" platform/app

  • Find/Create Affiliate (make sure to check the box!)

  • Add Affiliate to program

After adding them to a program, you can also (optionally) add them to an affiliate group. 

REST API

When creating affiliates using the REST API, it must be done in two steps:

Note: To launch trigger email notifications when the affiliate is added to a program, add ?send_welcome_email=true to the endpoint URL of the second step.
