# Affiliates

> Create, read, update, and delete affiliate (publisher) records on your Invoca network, including contact and payout settings, via the Network Integration API.

The operations on Affiliate are similar to Network, in that the interface is fully idempotent, and the create and update commands both expect the full set of affiliate sites and users each time. Similar to advertisers, you are not allowed to delete if one or more campaigns exist for this affiliate.

### Custom Data

Affiliates may have Custom Data Fields applied to them, which will be applied to calls originating through the affiliate. To apply Custom Data Values to an affiliate, the top level parameter `custom_data` should be assigned a hash with each pair's key corresponding to a partner name. The value of the pair should be the value to be applied.

For the following example, we would apply the value "Offline newspaper" to the Custom Data Field "channel".

```json theme={null}
{
  "custom_data": {
    "channel": "Offline newspaper"
  }
}
```
