Hey there, Python wizards! Ready to add some urgency to your marketing game? Let's dive into integrating the Deadline Funnel API into your Python projects. This nifty tool will help you create time-sensitive offers that'll have your customers scrambling to hit that "Buy Now" button.
Before we jump in, make sure you've got:
requests
libraryFirst things first, let's get our ducks in a row:
pip install requests
Now, let's store that API key somewhere safe:
import os os.environ['DEADLINE_FUNNEL_API_KEY'] = 'your_api_key_here'
Time to test the waters:
import requests api_key = os.environ.get('DEADLINE_FUNNEL_API_KEY') base_url = 'https://app.deadlinefunnel.com/api/v1' headers = { 'Authorization': f'Bearer {api_key}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' } response = requests.get(f'{base_url}/funnels', headers=headers) print(response.json())
If you see a list of your funnels, you're golden!
Let's birth a funnel:
new_funnel = { 'name': 'Super Awesome Funnel', 'deadline_type': 'evergreen', 'duration': 72 # hours } response = requests.post(f'{base_url}/funnels', headers=headers, json=new_funnel) funnel_id = response.json()['id']
Curious about your funnel? Let's take a peek:
response = requests.get(f'{base_url}/funnels/{funnel_id}', headers=headers) funnel_data = response.json()
Time for a funnel facelift:
updates = { 'name': 'Even More Awesome Funnel', 'duration': 48 } requests.patch(f'{base_url}/funnels/{funnel_id}', headers=headers, json=updates)
When it's time to say goodbye:
requests.delete(f'{base_url}/funnels/{funnel_id}', headers=headers)
Let's light a fire under those subscribers:
subscriber_data = { 'email': '[email protected]', 'funnel_id': funnel_id } response = requests.post(f'{base_url}/subscribers', headers=headers, json=subscriber_data)
Is the clock still ticking?
email = '[email protected]' response = requests.get(f'{base_url}/subscribers/{email}/funnels/{funnel_id}', headers=headers) status = response.json()['status']
Feeling generous? Let's extend that deadline:
extension_data = { 'extend_by': 24 # hours } requests.patch(f'{base_url}/subscribers/{email}/funnels/{funnel_id}', headers=headers, json=extension_data)
Always wrap your API calls in try-except blocks:
try: response = requests.get(f'{base_url}/funnels', headers=headers) response.raise_for_status() except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e: print(f"Oops! Something went wrong: {e}")
And don't forget to respect those rate limits! Implement some backoff logic if needed.
Got a lot of subscribers? Let's add them in bulk:
subscribers = [ {'email': '[email protected]', 'funnel_id': funnel_id}, {'email': '[email protected]', 'funnel_id': funnel_id} ] requests.post(f'{base_url}/subscribers/batch', headers=headers, json={'subscribers': subscribers})
Want real-time updates? Set up a webhook:
webhook_data = { 'url': 'https://your-app.com/webhook', 'events': ['subscriber.deadline_reached'] } requests.post(f'{base_url}/webhooks', headers=headers, json=webhook_data)
Always test your integration thoroughly. Here's a quick unit test example:
import unittest class TestDeadlineFunnelAPI(unittest.TestCase): def test_create_funnel(self): # Your test code here pass if __name__ == '__main__': unittest.main()
And there you have it, folks! You're now armed with the knowledge to integrate Deadline Funnel into your Python projects. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility – use these deadlines wisely and watch your conversions soar!
Happy coding, and may your funnels be ever full!
