It is highly recommended that you send multiple objects in one HTTP request. This API allows streaming using newline separated JSON format or ndjson (http://ndjson.org/)
Rate-limits
You may send up to 30 requests per second
You may have up to 30 concurrent connections
If you send many conversions/products/etc. in bulk, the upload speed will be limited to 30 conversions/products/etc. per second
Rate limiting examples
If you send 1 conversion per request you will be limited to 30 requests per second
If you send 90 conversions in one request your upload will be completed in about 3 seconds
If you send 40 requests, each with one conversion in the same second, 30 of them will be processed and 10 of them will be rejected
If you send 3 requests, each with 100 conversions they will be completed in 10 seconds
Limitations
You can send up to 150 conversion items
Date formats
Use the long format with timezone for passing ISO-8601 dates. The following formats are accepted:
"2019-04-29T13:47:47.315Z"
"2019-04-29T13:47:47Z"
"2019-04-29T13:47:47.315+02:00"
"2019-04-29T13:47:47+02:00"
Errors
Errors are always returned as an array of objects in the top-level "errors" property.
Errors in bulk operations
For bulk operations you may have "errors" and "data" properties at the same time since some objects may have errors while others may not. Bulk errors are aggregated which means there won't be an error for each instance of an error but one error for each type of error with the number of occurrences and some examples of line numbers or ids.
This endpoint creates and updates conversions. Your request will be processed asynchronously. It can take up to 1 hour until the request is processed and updates are made in the database.

There are three ways to have product information in your conversion items. First method is to put product properties inline for each conversion item. Second method is to synchronize your product catalog with our database using "POST /products/bulk" endpoint and only send product ids in conversion items (our server will copy product properties from catalog). Third method is a combination of previous ones and implies having a product catalog and send the product information inline. In case a property is present in both catalog product and inline product, properties from inline product will overwrite properties from catalog. This method is useful when product information is incomplete or complementary in inline products.
It is recommended to send products inline, except when you do not have all product information. In most cases you don't need to use the catalog. It is recommended to use as many fields as you can in order to be able to build good segments with advanced conditions.
When you only send the id of the product in a conversion item, you need to make sure that your catalog already contains the product, otherwise product properties will not be added to your conversion item.
