Using the Mozenda Web Services Rest API, customers can programmatically connect to their Mozenda account. This provides complete automation capabilities for setting search parameters, gathering results, updating collections, etc. This connection is made by sending a standard Http request that includes variables and other settings for interacting with the system.

Configuring your account to be accessible via the API is a simple process:
1. Login to your account at http://login.mozenda.com
2. Click the Account link located in the top right corner of the web page.
3. Click the Users tab in the Account area.
4. Click the wrench symbol for the user you would like to configure an 'API Web Service Key' for.
5. Look for the 'API Web Service Key' section and then click Generate a New Key. You will be required to provide this key in all requests to the API.
6. Learn the syntax of the API requests using the documentation below and you are ready to go!

After you have enabled your account for API access you will want to determine what functions you need to accomplish programmatically. Most of the actions you can perform via the Web Console can also be initiated through the API. Use the rest of this document as a reference for the different functions that you will need to perform.

Mozenda API Syntax

With every API request there is some standard information that must be passed. First is the base url, which is:

Next, each request made to the API requires your Web Service Key (described above) to authenticate your account. This value is passed in using the WebServiceKey parameter:

Next, each request needs to provide the Service parameter. This parameter specifies the version of the API being used. Right now the only accepted value is Mozenda10:

Finally, each request needs to provide the Operation parameter. This parameter tells the API what operation you want performed. A list of the available operations follows, along with a sample URL showing how to use the operation.

API Request Frequency: The Mozenda system currently supports making up to 30 requests to our API every minute.
Important Note: All API requests must comply with the the specification for URLs RFC 1738. This means some parameters need to be encoded before they are passed via the API. For Example, if you wanted to add a ViewParameter.Name parameter with the value of "Sport Camera" to your View.GetItems API call, then the correct encoding for this call is "ViewParameter.Name=Sport%20Camera", because spaces are not allowed in URLs and should be replaced with a %20 in the encoding step of your process.

Collection.Add

Description

Adds an empty collection in your account.

Required parameters

Name

Optional parameters

Description

Returns

The result of the operation and the CollectionID if it was successful.

Example request url

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<CollectionAddResponse>
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <Result>Success</Result>
  <CollectionID>2259</CollectionID>
 </CollectionAddResponse>

Collection.AddItem

Description

Adds an item to a collection with the values specified. Instead of including the single item to be added in the request it is also possible to add items in bulk by attaching a file with the request.

Required parameters

CollectionID

Optional parameters

Field.<FieldName>

Returns

The ItemID of the newly added item, or an error message stating why it could not be added.

Example request url

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<CollectionAddItemResponse 
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <Result>Success</Result>
  <ItemID>1098</ItemID>
</CollectionAddItemResponse>
		

Bulk Insertion

In addition to adding items one at a time, there is a method that can be used to add items in bulk. Below is some sample C# code that will demonstrate how this is done. This same technique can be used in many different programming languages to add multiple items to a Mozenda collection at one time. This option should be used whenever a large number of items need to be inserted all at once.

string webServiceKey = C70E1F84-E12B-4e73-B199-2EE6D43AF44E; //Your Account WebServiceKey.
string collectionID = 1001; //The ID of the destination Collection.
string url = string.Format(
"https://api.mozenda.com/rest?WebServiceKey={0}&Service=Mozenda10&Operation=Collection.AddItem&CollectionID={1}",
webServiceKey, collectionID);
string fileName = "C:\\Temp\\NewItems.xml"; //Path to the file containing the items to be uploaded.

WebClient client = new WebClient();
byte[] responseBinary = client.UploadFile(url, fileName);
string response = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(responseBinary);
		

The image below illustrates the format for each item in the uploaded file.
