Tags API

The Analytics 2.0 Tags APIs allow you to retrieve, update, or create tags and their association with components programmatically through Adobe Developer. The APIs use the same data and methods that are used when working with tags in the UI.

data-variant=info

data-slots=text

Adobe may add optional request and response members (name/value pairs) to existing API objects at any time and without notice or changes in versioning. Adobe recommends that you refer to the API documentation of any third-party tool you integrate with our APIs so that such additions are ignored in processing if not understood. If implemented properly, such additions are non-breaking changes for your implementation. Adobe will not remove parameters or add required parameters without first providing standard notification through release notes.

Retrieve multiple tags

Retrieve a list of tags that the user can access.

GET https://analytics.adobe.io/api/{GLOBALCOMPANYID}/componentmetadata/tags

You can paginate results by using the limit and page query strings.

limit: An integer that represents the number of results per page.
page: An integer that represents which page to return results.

For example, use the page and limit query strings to only retrieve the first 3 tags in a company:

              data-slots=heading, code

            

              data-repeat=2

            

              data-languages=CURL,JSON

            

              Request
            

              curl -X GET "https://analytics.adobe.io/api/{GLOBALCOMPANYID}/componentmetadata/tags?page=0&limit=3" \
  -H 'Accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {ACCESSTOKEN}' \
  -H 'x-api-key: {CLIENTID}'

            

              Response

Create a tag

Creates tags for use with components.

POST https://analytics.adobe.io/api/{COMPANY_ID}/componentmetadata/tags

This API call requires a JSON request body so it can create the desired tag. The JSON request body is an array of tags to create. For example:

              {
  "id": "segment1,segment2",
  "status": {
    "success": true
  }
}

Overwrite tags for components

Set the tags for one or more components. This endpoint overwrites all existing tags for the component, meaning that existing tags are removed.

PUT https://analytics.adobe.io/api/{GLOBALCOMPANYID}/componentmetadata/tags/tagitems

This API call requires a JSON request body that contains the components to update and the tags to set. For example:

[
   {
      "componentType":"project",
      "componentId":"component-id-1",
      "tags":[
         {
            "name":"marketing-1",
            "description":"marketing 1"
         },
         {

            "description":"marketing 2"
         }
      ]
   }
]

For example, this API call performs several actions:

Creates two tags named "marketing-1" and "marketing-2"
Ties these two tags with the component component-id-1
If there are any existing tags tied with component-id-1, remove those ties.
