QBank Integration

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I am looking for Marketo integration with QBank DAM. Do you guys have any solution to make this integration successful?

If you have documentation on that i would really appreciate your help!

Kind Regards,

Nitin Sharma

"Integration" is always too vague to give a precise answer.  You'll need to describe your precise requirements.

From a cursory glance at the QBank API, if you mean something like "let users browse for QBank-hosted assets from the Marketo Insert Image dialog" that's not going to be possible.

Hi Sanford,

Thank you for replying!

Actually my requirement is to fetch the image from the Qbank DAM and import it to the Marketo image library.

Can you please provide me a solution to get this done.

Both sides have an API through which files can be read and (re)written.

However, neither API has a triggered/evented structure that will tell fire, for example, when new images have been added to QBank so you can listen for such a trigger and only then connect to Marketo.

Instead, you will have to poll the QBank API periodically, filtering by update timestamp is later than last poll timestamp, and when you get a result download and write the file(s) to the Marketo API.

Hi Sanford,

Yes, it's look like same that I am looking for.

Do you have any document, link or sample code which can help me to go in right direction?

I really appreciate your efforts .

A simple intro to the QBank3 API is here: Getting started with the API​​.  While this is not in any way an endorsement of using PHP  -- not my preferred language for anything -- their official PHP library seems to have the best documentation: QBNK/qbank3api-phpwrapper.

The Marketo REST Asset API intro is here: http://developers.marketo.com/rest-api/assets/files/ and detailed reference here: http://developers.marketo.com/rest-api/endpoint-reference/asset-endpoint-reference/#/Files

I'm not sure what else you expect to happen here on the Community... this is a pretty sophisticated project, at least a few hundred lines of code, several components, and lots of testing when it's all done!
