[2022](https://help.linktrust.com/en/knowledge/whats-new?hsLang=en#2022) # July 2022 Product Update Main Features: - **Pipeline Leads** - **OAuth Security for APIs** - **Pay By Transaction in Affiliate Commissions Report** - **New Lead Poster Tool** - **New Mass Transaction Modification Tool**   **Pipeline Leads**  Manage relationships throughout the life cycle of each lead. A single lead can generate multiple stages of income depending on how stages are configured. This is a LinkTrust Enterprise feature.  ***Summary: *** *Pipeline Stages are customizable within each campaign. Pipelines are managed via the UI and new APIs. New reports allow users to get high-level views as well as drill into details of each lead’s stages. * **Custom Setup of Pipelines:**  Configure stages as well as distribution to meet business needs. - Campaigns contain multiple Stages. Stages act as steps or milestones in the lifecycle of a single lead. - Identify each Stage’s name, description, and payout; the last two are optional. - Decide on the following options for each Stage: ![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/Hksb1nH57DIXELhj1p1j1EeT9NCQ5eETW-rstlpQKFBx1AmRIDgZqmeNhG-78pw_9I1QsR9Tj0kIhlyqhtu__abSQApylOix6pkhioBeBS-dKcB5PFpQ7pUDBW-lIYkt_F5g0YlXgipKyzPYfw) **Managing Pipelines:**  Once leads are submitted, there are two ways to update pipeline stages.  **1)** **User Interface:**  Stages can be updated from within the Lead Details report, in both the Partner Center and the Advertiser Center.    ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/quhiwTBGsZBKiYkvzWOPFPHBTKjE5H2_xR93bzFwrCRZya1REP97we1KhohzIEehdzhf8aKxpR1JrIJjwl5R2izgN9aEqsug5gKquBpdls3o1-7K7csXvfhI8KoOMFFvlOLc8DnZunjoWFe9Lw) The video above shows Pipeline stages being updated from within the Lead Details Report.    **2)** **APIs: ** Stages can optionally be updated via a new set of APIs, whereas completion of Pipeline Leads is only via API.

This is a LinkTrust enterprise feature.    **Brief Summary of OAuth Process**   3 participants are required for OAuth transactions:   - the end user;  - the application (API);   - the resource (service provider that’s storing privileged credentials)    3 steps are involved in an OAuth transaction:   - End User/Resource Owner asks permission through a client Application;  - Application requests Access Token;  - Application accesses the Resource.   **LinkTrust OAuth Features come in 2 Types**   **Admin Keys**: - provide access to all data in the customer account; - utilize a unique ClientID & Client Secret, provided by LinkTrust Support; - get an access token using grant type of client credentials. **User Credentials:**   - provide limited access based on each user’s rights;  - utilize username & password plus a unique ClientID, provided by LinkTrust Support; - get an access token using grant type of password credentials.   Here is an example using the OAuth features in Postman.    ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/yp7LBkzGdrIq_-yc-1AEO656J8nxxus4eGBzULJyyFNkZ66R7aQCFOwrw7kme3RbXOQ83mT5hl6riXAH77XJMoGuvJKZWe0CoWcKkyl9JbOkW781ZR1_opbix9QbuiyBIyVi45fDY2VZiEn2QQ) **Pay By Transaction in Affiliate Commissions Report**   We’ve built a new ‘Affiliate Commissions by Lead/Conversion’ report. This is a modified version of the existing ‘Affiliate Commissions by Pay Period’ report. This is an Enterprise Feature. The new report breaks out as follows: - Each Parent Row:  an affiliate who’s earned commissions - Each Child Row:  a single transaction for that affiliate (Sold Lead, Approved Conversion, or Completed Pipeline Lead)   We also provide an API for pulling the information from this report.

Find the new tool in a Lead campaign’s ‘Posting Details’ page. Use this to import batches of leads with a date stamp of today’s date.   **![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/tPoa--BBAXcuQUAFQuB1wSSY4E4G176KjMlusqls0PcWD3FgEpY4Nb_baKldK8oCBpnSwTcaaaCQG3rhFZ09ba7FYCKFfqcFPphf4j1dNSsRDDoqhtHLI0YJuKh3308shYs0SjN7vKfFphdrNA)**   **Transaction Mass Update Tool**   Also a replacement for our legacy Lead Poster, we’ve built a new tool for mass updates to existing Click/Pixel transactions.
