Ad-Owl ads can be exported into a print publication using the BLOX native webservice function. Ad fields are exported via XML. Accessing the ad export requires that a webservice key be in place on the site as a security precaution. The webservice key is comprised of a key code and a secret code that must be supplied each time you access the export.
To access the export webservice, access the following URL (replace 'example.com' with actual domain):
You'll be prompted to enter webservice key and secret prior to gaining access to the webservice.
This page will provide the XML output of the approved orders in your BLOX Ad-Owl, which can then be copied into a file. You may also provide additional parameters that can filter the selection of approved ads by order date and by category/classification code.
