How does the XML API Feed Work?

by Zack Cilia

Last updated: 11-Aug-2026

The XML API allows managers and developers to retrieve data from MyAffiliates in bulk or through automated processes and scripts. The API provides a range of functions that accept input parameters and return the requested data in XML format.
The API supports both GET and POST requests, depending on the specific API function being used.
To access the available XML API functions and documentation, navigate to:
Reporting > XML APIs
Note: Access to the XML API requires separate valid manager credentials for the MyAffiliates Admin system.

The main XML API feeds available in MyAffiliates by default include the following:

Feed 1 - User Feed
Returns a list of affiliates based on the specified input parameters and filters. Eg. Status

Feed 2 - User Detail Feed
Allows specific user detail fields to be retrieved or updated for selected users. It can also be used to retrieve a specific user detail field for an individual user.

Feed 3 - User Status Feed
Returns the status of a selected list of users. It can also optionally be used to update the status of those users.

Feed 4 - Decode Token
Allows one or more tracking tokens to be decoded.

Feed 5 - Encode Token
