CAKE
Connect your CAKE affiliate network to AffZero using the Affiliate API.
Overview
CAKE is a performance marketing platform used by affiliate networks and brands. AffZero connects to CAKE using the Affiliate API, which allows pulling stats for campaigns and daily summaries.
What You Need
- Your CAKE network domain (the subdomain specific to your CAKE instance)
- A CAKE Affiliate API key
Where to Find Your CAKE API Key
The Affiliate API key is found in the CAKE Affiliate Portal:
- Log in to your CAKE affiliate portal (e.g.
https://yournetwork.cakemarketing.com/affiliate/login) - Click on your name or account settings in the top-right corner
- Navigate to API Keys or Account Settings → API
- Copy the Affiliate API Key shown on this page
CAKE has separate API keys for the Affiliate portal and the Admin portal. AffZero currently uses the Affiliate API — make sure you're copying the correct key.
