CIcint
Profiling Helper

Validates a profile

Validates a complete profile and target configuration without creating or modifying any resources.

You can use this stateless endpoint to check your profile logic for business rule violations (e.g., overlapping quotas) before you use it to create or update a target group. It provides detailed warnings and errors to help you build a valid configuration.

The API automatically removes duplicate open-ended values in this request before validation, but rejects duplicates in selection or range conditions.

Request body

completes_goalnumber required

Specifies the target group's required number of survey completions or pre-screen responses. Formerly referred to as the "filling goal," this value sets the benchmark for the number of valid responses needed to achieve the desired level of data reliability.
