Affiliation

Current status: Beta

Affiliation helps you manage Shopify affiliate stores after SaaS authorization, Shopify affiliate campaigns, campaign members, tracking links, discount codes, and performance reads.

Best-fit scenarios

You need to list authorized Shopify affiliate stores before creating or managing campaigns
You need to inspect or update a Shopify affiliate campaign
You need to add NoxInfluencer creators or owned creator links to an affiliate campaign
You need to activate, terminate, or resume affiliate members after confirming settings
You need campaign or member performance reads for affiliate tracking

Current beta scope

List authorized Shopify stores and the last operated store
List Shopify products for an authorized store
List, read, create, update, delete, and summarize affiliate campaigns
List pending and active campaign members
Add, update, delete, activate, terminate, or resume members
Read member overview, performance, promotion orders, and tracking-link click details

Important routing rule

Use affiliation for Shopify affiliate campaigns and members. Use Short Links for normal Nox short links.

Shopify store authorization is handled in NoxInfluencer SaaS. If no store is listed, or store access is denied, open the NoxInfluencer affiliation pages to authorize or manage the store first. Do not try to authorize stores from the Skill or CLI.

Key commands

Start with stores:

noxinfluencer affiliation stores list
noxinfluencer affiliation stores last
noxinfluencer affiliation stores products <store_id>

Inspect campaign commands before preparing bodies:

noxinfluencer schema "affiliation campaigns create"
noxinfluencer schema "affiliation campaigns update"
noxinfluencer affiliation campaigns list --store-id <store_id> --page_size 20
noxinfluencer affiliation campaigns get <campaign_id>
noxinfluencer affiliation campaigns overview <campaign_id>

Create, update, or delete campaigns only after approval:

noxinfluencer affiliation campaigns create --body-file affiliation-campaign.json --force
noxinfluencer affiliation campaigns update <campaign_id> --body-file affiliation-campaign-update.json --force
noxinfluencer affiliation campaigns delete <campaign_id> --force

Manage campaign members:

noxinfluencer affiliation members pending <campaign_id>
noxinfluencer affiliation members active <campaign_id>
noxinfluencer affiliation members add <campaign_id> --body-file affiliation-members.json --force
noxinfluencer affiliation members update --body-file affiliation-member-update.json --force
noxinfluencer affiliation members status --body-file affiliation-member-status.json --force
noxinfluencer affiliation members delete --body-file affiliation-member-delete.json --force

Read member performance:

noxinfluencer affiliation members overview <member_id>
noxinfluencer affiliation members performance <member_id>
noxinfluencer affiliation members promotions <member_id>
noxinfluencer affiliation members track-detail <member_id>

Member inputs

When adding members, use search/profile creator_id values when you are adding NoxInfluencer creators. The CLI also supports platform + channel_id, or custom_id for owned or external creator links when the schema calls for it.

Activation can generate SaaS discount codes and affiliate tracking links when member settings are complete.

Safe execution rules

Campaign and member write commands default to dry-run; use --force only after approval
Use schema <cmd> before preparing campaign or member JSON bodies
Confirm the exact store_id, campaign_id, member_id, member list, status action, discount settings, and commission settings before mutations
Use SaaS-aligned discount fields such as commission_type, discount_method, and discount_detail when creating or updating campaigns
Store authorization stays in SaaS; the CLI only operates stores already available to the account

Current boundary

It does not authorize or connect Shopify stores from the CLI
It does not manage normal Nox short links
It does not create outreach copy or negotiate creator terms
It does not operate Shopify admin outside the NoxInfluencer affiliation surface
