openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Simon Data Audience Contacts API
  description: The Simon Audience API returns a single Simon Data contact profile so marketers can personalise content at request time. Look a contact up with an identity string in the form identifier:id (simonid, email, email-hash, primary-subscriber-key for Salesforce Marketing Cloud, riid for Responsys, or zendeskid for Zendesk) and a comma-separated list of the contact fields to return. Only fields configured as content in the Simon account appear in the response. The Audience API is an optional premium feature; access is arranged with a Simon account manager. Authentication is a bearer token issued by a Client Solutions Manager, and the API is intended for server-side use only.
