ConversionRuler supports back-end calls to our server from your server, provided that your web site is willing to manage aspects of the user session and cookie management. This functionality is intended for advanced developers who understand cookies, the HTTP protocol, URL escaping, and how to retrieve various aspects of browser state.
The main call to ConversionRuler is:
