Swagger
Swagger is the world's largest framework of API developer tools enabling test and deployment. You can also use our Swagger tools to manually test the API.
Swagger is available at this url: https://api.criteo.com/marketing/swagger/
Note: This Swagger links to the live Criteo Production environment. Any test applied there will thus impact real campaigns.
