CJ Affiliate Click Events API
Server-to-server JSON REST API through which CJ partners register a consumer click and receive back the final landing-page URL carrying the cjevent tracking parameter. Supports bounceless tracking experiences and first-party id journey mapping. Cannot be called from a browser, rejects unknown fields, and rejects any field containing an email pattern as consumer PII. On any error the partner must fall back to a traditional CJ tracking click URL.
