Zazzle RSS Guide - Parameter 'at'

Dear Zazzle Team,

In the Zazzle RSS Guide, the referral id is specified as 'at'. Is that still correct? It seems to me that 'rf' is currently the correct value.

With kind regards

Checked it. 'at' is correct and appends the referral ID with 'rf' to the links in the RSS feed.
Thanks for the your help.

This is what I found doing a search—for anyone wanting to learn more about RSS feeds—

at  is Your associate referral id. Inserts your referral id into all product links in the feed so you can earn referrals on any sales that come in through (are attributed to) your feed.

on Page 7 of the 2016 rss guide (possibly needs updating?) (can download it)

Does not answer the question as to whether to use rf or at or both.
at might be what is used when RSS feed is called, instead of rf. 
Great question tho.

So my initial post, referring to the rss guide and adding at, was correct and the guide probably doesn’t need updating. Also good that those wanting more info now have the rss guide link w/out having to search for it.

In RSS feed requests, the associate id parameter is always "at" and not "rf". For example:
https://feed.zazzle.com/rss?qs=birthday&at=238582202591969585

You'll then get links returned in the feed of the form:
https://www.zazzle.com/legend_since_november_1947_for_men_women_november_t_shirt-235837480994575432?rf=238582202591969585 

I hope this helps 🙂
