Text links clicked

Overview

Get which links in texts were clicked.

Use this to see what customers acted on.

You'll need an account token and the campaign's id. Clicks are counted over the campaign's life unless you send a window (start_date, end_date).

Returns click counts per link, most clicked first. Links that weren't clicked are listed with 0.

Prerequisites

A bearer token. See Authentication.
The campaign's id (campaignId), from List campaigns.
Optional: a window (start_date, end_date), both Y-m-d.
