Get Leaderboard

GET https://api.loyaltysurf.io/v1/campaign/:id/leaderboard

Retrieves a list of participants in the campaign ordered by loyalty action count in ascending order.

  • Monthly Loyalty Action Count Leaderboard You can retrieve the campaign leaderboard ordered by the monthly loyalty action count by providing a query parameter leaderboardType with a value of CURRENT_MONTH. This will retrieve a list of participants ordered by monthly loyalty action. Monthly loyalty action counts are automatically reset at the end of each month for each participant within your campaign, therefore results of the monthly loyalty action count may vary.

  • Previous Monthly Loyalty Action Count Leaderboard Similar to the monthly campaign leaderboard, providing a query parameter of leaderboardType with a value of PREV_MONTH will retrieve a list of participants ordered by the previous monthly loyalty action count. Participants that did not exist within the campaign during the previous month will not be returned within the previous monthly leaderboard response.

Path Parameters

Name
Type
Description

id*

string

The ID of the campaign

Query Parameters

Name
Type
Description

nextId

string

The ID of the participant to start the next result set with. This can be used to skip through the list or to page the list of results. Each response will provide a nextId value if there are more participants otherwise, nextId will be null.

limit

string

The number of participants to return. Must be a value less than or equal to 100 and greater than 1. 100 is currently the maximum limit per reach request.

leaderboardType

string

Returns the leaderboard for the specified type if provided. Options ALL_TIME - Returns the all-time leaderboard, based on all-time loyalty action counts. Default CURRENT_MONTH - Returns the current month's leaderboard, based on the current month's loyalty action counts. PREV_MONTH - Returns the previous month's leaderboard, based on the previous month's loyalty action counts (With this option, participants that did not exist within the campaign during the previous month will not be returned).

Response

Example response of the standard leaderboard with returned participants ordered by their loyalty action count.

If the leaderboardType=CURRENT_MONTH query parameter is provided, the resulting list would be ordered by monthly loyalty action count.

Similarly, if leaderboardType=PREV_MONTH is provided, the resulting list would be ordered by the previous monthly loyalty action count.
