Question:
Could you size the following work and let me know the effort involved in completing it please?
We need a new process that would call the OpenX API’s with a Publisher ID and return a complete inventory of the zones (zone name, zone ID) related to that Publisher in JSON format.
As this is read-only, does it require security credentials to log into to OpenX, or can it be done without secure login being invoked?
Answer:
Yes, We can do this work. There are two options we have.
Option 1:
If we use OpenX API then it requires login information to get all information of zones. Implementation of functionality based on OpenX API will take 5 hours.
Option 2:
If you don’t want to use login information to get zone information then we need to implement first our API which will skip login checking and gets all zone information. Implantation of this functionality will take 10 hours.
Let me know which option do you want so we will start working on it.
Question:
Option 2 would be preferred without login. I would like to expand the requirement - in addition to the Publisher ID as input, can we also add a format indicator for the output ? Based on this value, the output data would then be either in JSON or XML format - we have a need for each type in different circumstances.
So (for example)
Input PubID, J —–> output in JSON ( Pub Id, list of all zones )
input Pub ID, X —–> output in XML (Pub ID, list of all zones)
Please provide time for this expanded requirement.
Answer:
Yes, we can add format type of results as parameter with publisher ID.
Implementation of this functionality will take 2 days.
