Jul 2023 - Jul 2023 (1 month)

CAKE API Fixes captures backend work in the CakePortalsMVC codebase to harden affiliate reporting pagination behavior in production endpoints.

In July 2023, delivery focused on CampaignSummary and DailySummary API fixes so paged report requests returned consistent rows and accurate row_count metadata for client pagination.

Built with: C#, .NET Framework 4.5.2, ASP.NET MVC 5, ASP.NET Web API 2, OWIN, Unity, Newtonsoft.Json, Swashbuckle (Swagger), NUnit, and Moq.

Recent updates for CAKE API Fixes. Completed

July 2023

  • Fixed DailySummary API pagination by wiring summary metadata through repository/controller/response layers, returning correct `row_count`, and preventing empty results when `start_at_row > 1`.
  • Fixed CampaignSummary API pagination summary output so affiliate report responses return accurate `row_count` metadata for paged clients.

Objective Link to heading

  • Stabilize affiliate reporting pagination in CAKE APIs by fixing summary metadata and paging behavior in CampaignSummary and DailySummary endpoints.
  • Ensure API consumers receive accurate row_count values and consistent paged records when requesting non-first result windows.

Delivery scope Link to heading

  • Fixed CampaignSummary report repository flow so summary data always includes row_count when records are returned.
  • Extended DailySummary flow across repository, controller, response model, and interface contracts to pass summary metadata through the API surface.
  • Corrected DailySummary pagination behavior for start_at_row > 1 to prevent empty result sets in valid paged requests.

Technical architecture focus Link to heading

  • ASP.NET Web API + MVC service layer on .NET Framework with repository-driven data access for affiliate reports.
  • Strongly typed API response models carrying both result collections and summary metadata for pagination-aware clients.
  • Dependency-injected backend composition (Unity/OWIN stack) with report logic split across controller, repository, and interface layers.
