GET - List

The Custom Audience API 1.0 only accepts custom user IDs and avertising IDs. For audiences with install IDs, the version 1.1 should be used.

The Custom Audience API enables you to create, update, delete and list custom audiences. A custom audience can contain a list of custom user IDs or advertising IDs (GAID or IDFA).

This is useful to target segments with push notifications or In-App messages, either they are coming from your userbase or created by third-party tools.

Custom audiences created using the API can be targeted from Batch’s dashboard or the Campaigns API.

Request structure

Route

The Custom Audience API exposes a GET endpoint that allows to list custom audiences :

https://api.batch.com/1.0/BATCH_API_KEY/custom-audience

Here is a valid cURL example:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "X-Authorization: BATCH_REST_API_KEY" -X GET "https://api.batch.com/1.0/BATCH_API_KEY/custom-audience"

The BATCH_API_KEY value is either your Live, Dev or SDK Batch API key from the settings page of your app within the dashboard (⚙ Settings → General).

Headers

In order to authenticate with the API, you need to provide your company REST API Key as the value of the X-Authorization header. You can find it in ⚙ Settings → General.

Get parameters

IdDescription
fromInteger - Optional, Default : 0
Value used for pagination : it indicates the offset of the first custom audience to be returned. Custom audiences are ordered by creation date (from the most recent to the oldest).
E.g."/custom-audience?from=10"
limitInteger - Optional, Default : 10, Max : 100
Value that indicates the number of custom audiences to be returned per API call.

Here is an example of a valid cURL CLI request, which would return 5 custom audiences, starting from the 10th audience :

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "X-Authorization: BATCH_REST_API_KEY" -X GET
"https://api.batch.com/1.0/BATCH_API_KEY/custom-audience?from=10&limit=5"
