# Your affiliate IDs seen behind ads that use your brand

`GET /projects/{project_id}/affiliate-findings`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://adslighthouse.com/api/v1`
- URL: `https://adslighthouse.com/api/v1/projects/{project_id}/affiliate-findings`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Lists the project's affiliate IDs found in destination URLs of ads whose copy uses the brand, with case status, networks, advertiser domains and example URLs. Use these scoped findings to prioritize partner review. Match the returned keyword text and market against list_keywords to resolve its keyword_id, then call list_keyword_ads with that keyword_id, view=ads, one advertiser domain from the finding, and the same date window and observation filters. After the team's review, record its outcome with set_affiliate_case_status. Requires an affiliate URL parameter in project settings; configured is false otherwise and the list is empty. A finding is a lead to review with the partner, not proof of a violation.

## Path parameters
