Subscription API - Documentation

In order to use the Subscription API, your Salesforce Org needs to have API usage activated through having an API usage License. You also need to have the finance license.
Otherwise you will get the error “This feature is not part of your current ADvendio license.“ returned.

For general information about the Subscription feature, see 6.13 How to Manage Subscriptions/Recurring Payments.

Please take note that the Subscription API consists of 2 different calls:

1. Create (initial) Media Campaign

The API call for the creation of the initial Media Campaign creation requires your Subscription Contract as well as the Subscription Ad Price Assignments to be set up correctly.
With those records you can start the API which will result in your initial Media Campaign getting created similar to how you would do it via the action button in the UI: 6.13 How to Manage Subscriptions/Recurring Payments | How to Invoice your Subscription Contracts?
