HTTP Interfaces and External Systems for State-owned Large Bank Marketing Content

What Data for This Category Looks Like

Data for this category comes from the head office’s unified controlled marketing material management platform, compliant marketing materials submitted by branches, and public marketing content libraries required by regulators. Update schedules include bulk synchronization before marketing campaigns launch, full updates of temporary activity materials within 24 hours before launch, and on-demand updates for routine maintenance materials. Documents use structured formats, and include material ID, material type, applicable customer group scope, compliance check status, delivery channel, validity period, content text, and associated activity number. Units include characters, calendar days, and number-type fields. No non-standard units are used.

Constraints for HTTP Interfaces and External Systems

Multi-source material origins, compliance check requirements, and field specifications for this category impose constraints on HTTP interfaces and external systems. First, materials include a compliance check status field. Interfaces must carry compliance check results as a pre-check item, otherwise calls will be blocked. Second, update schedules include both bulk and real-time updates. Interfaces must support both bulk pull and real-time push call modes. Third, field specifications are strict. Interface request parameters and return fields must strictly match the state-owned large bank’s marketing content field definitions, otherwise they cannot be recognized by the bank’s external systems. Fourth, most connected external systems are related to core banking business. Interfaces must adapt to internal network access security check rules.

Configuration Settings

Configuration ItemRecommended ValueRationale
external_api_timeout600 secondsAdapts to the time required for bulk marketing material synchronization by state-owned large banks, matches reasonable duration for bulk material pull requests
field_mapping_stricttrueEnforces full matching between interface return fields and state-owned large bank marketing content field specifications, avoids field mapping errors
compliance_check_triggerAuto-check before interface returnsComplies with state-owned large bank compliance check requirements, automatically verifies material compliance status
api_call_modeDual mode: bulk pull and real-time pushAdapts to material requirements for different update schedules, covers call scenarios for bulk campaigns and temporary materials
max_batch_request_count500 itemsControls the maximum number of materials per bulk interface request, avoids interface overload
internal_api_whitelistAdd state-owned large bank internal system IP rangesComplies with banking internal network security access requirements, restricts unauthorized systems from calling the interface

The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material formats, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis. It is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.

Three Common Misconfigurations

  • Scenario: An offline-deployed m3e-large-api:latest service starts, and a curl call returns the Could not resolve host: cl100k.tiktoken error. Cause: Local resource loading for the interface is not configured, and external network resource requests are forcibly skipped. This does not comply with the security requirements of state-owned large bank internal network deployments.
  • Scenario: An HTTP interface call returns a 403 Forbidden status code, and logs show compliance check failed. Cause: compliance_check_trigger is not configured for auto-check, and compliance check parameters are not included.
  • Scenario: A bulk pull request returns 200 OK, but the number of returned materials does not match expectations. Cause: The max_batch_request_count configuration value is set outside a reasonable range, leading to failure to pull some materials correctly.

How to Verify Proper Configuration

  • Run a curl command to call the configured HTTP interface, check that return fields include required fields specified by state-owned large banks such as compliance_status and content_text.
  • Initiate a bulk pull request, check that the number of returned materials matches the value configured for max_batch_request_count.
  • View interface call logs, check for compliance check failure errors, confirm that the compliance_check_trigger configuration is active.
  • Initiate an interface call in the internal network environment, check that marketing materials are returned normally, confirm that the internal_api_whitelist configuration is active.
