External Services

This plugin relies on the GATopPosts.com service (https://www.gatopposts.com, API endpoint: https://app.gatopposts.com), operated by the plugin authors, to provide its core features. A free or paid GATopPosts.com account and API key are required — the plugin cannot retrieve your top posts without connecting to this service.

The plugin contacts the service in the following situations:

  1. API key verification (POST /scf/validateKey) — when you save your API key in the plugin settings. Sends your API key and the installed plugin version.
  2. Creating or updating a filter (POST /updateFilter) — when you create or edit a Top Posts filter, including the default filter created on first setup. Sends your API key, the installed plugin version, and the filter configuration (your site URL, selected content types, date range, and language settings).
  3. Retrieving Top Posts results (GET /getFilters, GET /getFilter) — when the plugin loads or refreshes your Top Posts lists, both in the WordPress dashboard and on the front end of your site. Sends your API key, the installed plugin version, and the filter ID; the service returns the ranked post data generated from the Google Analytics property you connected on GATopPosts.com.
  4. Deleting a filter (POST /deleteFilter) — when you delete a filter from the plugin settings. Sends your API key, the installed plugin version, and the filter ID.
  5. Plugin version and site status checks (GET /version) — when plugin admin pages load and during throttled background checks. Sends your API key and the installed plugin version.

The plugin does not transmit personal data of your site’s visitors. Analytics data is processed by the GATopPosts.com service from the Google Analytics account you explicitly authorize on GATopPosts.com.
