Partially update a guest

Sitecore CDP Guest REST API (v2.1)

Use the Guest REST API to create, retrieve, update, and delete guest data in Sitecore CDP.

This REST API lets you interact with:

The guest object. The guest object is the core entity of Sitecore CDP. It stores the personal data of a customer, and all relevant transactional and behavioral data is linked in a guest profile.
The guest data extension object. A guest data extension is an object that lets you specify any key-value pairs you want. Guest data extensions are optional and enable your organization to capture more robust information about your guests.

After capturing guest information, Sitecore CDP users can:

View the captured data in the guest profile.
Use the captured data to build segments of guests.
Export audience data to activate audiences outside Sitecore CDP.

Note the following:

To use this REST API, you must authenticate your API requests.
All API requests are made in your production environment.
This reference documentation describes Sitecore CDP functionality for data model 2.1.

For more information, see the official Sitecore CDP developer documentation.

Authentication

The Guest REST API uses basic authentication.

Basic authentication involves sending a user name and a password with every request.

To find your user name and password, in Sitecore CDP, on the navigation pane, click Settings > API access:

The user name is the Client key.
The password is the API token.

You must include the user name and password in every request you make. For example:

curl -X GET '{baseURL}/v2/guests' \
-u '{YOUR_USERNAME}:{YOUR_PASSWORD}' \
-H 'Accept: application/json'

Guest

The guest object is the core entity of Sitecore CDP. It stores the personal data of a customer, and all relevant transactional and behavioral data is linked in a guest profile.

To get started with this API, create a guest then find it in Sitecore CDP.

Operations

Create a guest

Request

Creates a guest. The REST API does not check whether a guest already exists in Sitecore CDP when you create a guest. To avoid creating duplicates, first retrieve guests by their email address or other identifying information.

In the response, the ref key contains the guest reference.

Find the guest in Sitecore CDP

You can also use the guest reference to find data about the guest in Sitecore CDP. In Sitecore CDP, click Guests. In the Search field, enter the guest reference, then click the Guest type: All filter. Then, Sitecore CDP lists the guest profile for the guest.

Retrieve guests

Request

Retrieves guests. We recommend that you retrieve guests by their email address or other identifying information using query parameters before you create a guest. This lets you check if a certain guest already exists in Sitecore CDP. If the guest exists, avoid creating duplicates. Instead, update the existing guest.

Query parameters

You can use the following query parameters to retrieve guests by some identifying information:

email
email.untouched
firstName
lastName
phoneNumber
identifiers.provider plus identifiers.id

Alternatively, you can use the expand=true query parameter to retrieve guests with all their key-value pairs listed.

Examples

Here's an example of how to use the email query parameter to retrieve guests by their email address:

{baseURL}/v2.1/guests?email=john.doe@gmail.com"

Here's an example of how to use the identifiers.provider and the identifiers.id query parameters to retrieve guests by their identifiers:

{baseURL}/v2.1/guests?identifiers.provider=ProfileSystem&identifiers.id=B7524AE6-CF1C-440F-B1A2-0C9D42F5CB41"

If any of this returns a guest, avoid creating another guest with the same identifying information. Instead, update the existing guest.

Guest reference

In the response, in items.href, the guest reference is the string that follows the final slash:

"href": "{baseURL}/v2.1/guests/{guestRef}"

Example guest reference: f7aabbca-1c1b-4fc2-be72-3e16294a4f03

Use the guest reference to interact with the full guest record, for example, to retrieve or update it.

Query

offsetobject(Offset)

Collection responses use offset pagination. The offset query parameter is used to exclude from a response the first N items of the entire resource collection.

Default 0

Example: offset=10

limitobject(Limit)[ 10 .. 100 ]

Collection responses use offset pagination. This query parameter lets you adjust the maximum number of collection items to return for a single request.

Default 10

Example: limit=40

expandArray of strings(Expand)

You can expand items in a collection by setting expand=true. This eliminates the need to send multiple follow-up requests (one for the collection and another for each of its items). This also helps you check if the data you intend to create already exists.

Example: expand=true

sortstring

You can sort search results by specifying a sort query parameter and a corresponding sort value (ASC or DESC case sensitive) on a collection resource URL.

The example query parameter shows how to return a resource in ascending chronological order of when the resource was created and descending order of the resource label.

Example: sort=createdAt::ASC|label::DESC

curl -i -X GET \
  -u <username>:<password> \
  'https://api-engage-ap.sitecorecloud.io/v2.1/guests?expand=true&limit=40&offset=10&sort=createdAt%3A%3AASC%2Clabel%3A%3ADESC'
