BadBoysFinishFirst.com Live on the New Emma API

Written by John Hobart, Posted in MyEmma

emma-logoWe're very excited to announce that the long-awaited API for MyEmma is now in limited release to developers.  We've been eagerly waiting in the wings for the launch.

We got our hands on the API this afternoon, and are very glad to report that it took us all of about 15 minutes to port over BadBoysFinishFirst.com from RemoteSignup to the new API.  

We are looking forward very much to exploring all this new API has to offer!  Matt Thackston, the API maestro at Emma, reports that in addition to a more elegant SOA approach to remote signups, the API will bring the following functionality to the community:

  • Sync your Emma audi­ence with your own inter­nal cus­tomer database
  • Pull response results from Emma and store them with your inter­nal cus­tomer data to sort and seg­ment any way you’d like
  • Create audi­ence groups, add mem­ber fields, edit mem­ber data and cre­ate searches from out­side of Emma
  • Create trig­gers from within your own web­site or platform

You can find out more about the API on the Emma Tech Blog, and you can sign up and become a part of the test group here.
