Campaigns

Campaigns have the following structure:

{
  id                  : int64
  name                : string
  created_date        : string(datetime)
  launch_date         : string(datetime)
  send_by_date        : string(datetime)
  completed_date      : string(datetime)
  template            : Template
  page                : Page
  status              : string
  results             : []Result
  groups              : []Group
  timeline            : []Event
  smtp                : SMTP
  url                 : string
}

The template, page, groups, and smtp objects are all Gophish objects. Their format can be found at their various API endpoints.

Campaign Events

Gophish keeps track of every event for a campaign in it's timeline. Each event has the following format:

{
  email                : string
  time                 : string(datetime)
  message              : string
  details              : string(JSON)
}

The details field is a string containing JSON which contains the raw data about an event (such as credentials that were submitted, user-agent information, and more). The details field has the following format:

{
  payload              : object
  browser              : object
}

Campaign Results

In addition to this, campaign results are maintained in the results attribute. This has a format similar to the members of a Group, in that they have the following structure:

{
  id                   : int64
  first_name           : string
  last_name            : string
  position             : string
  status               : string
  ip                   : string
  latitude             : float
  longitude            : float
  send_date            : string(datetime)
  reported             : boolean
}

}

This method expects the campaign to be provided in JSON format. For the various objects in a campaign, such as the template, landing page, or sending profile, you need to provide the name attribute. Here's an example of a JSON payload to create a new campaign:

{
    "name":"CC Example Campaign",
    "template":{"name":"Example Template"},
    "url":"http://localhost",
    "page":{"name":"Example Landing Page"},
    "smtp":{"name":"Example Sending Profile"},
    "launch_date":"2018-10-08T16:20:00+00:00",
    "send_by_date":null,
    "groups":[{"name":"Example Group"}]
}

Scheduling a Campaign

You can schedule a campaign to launch at a later time. To do this, simply put the desired time you want the campaign to launch in the launch_date attribute. Gophish expects the date to be provided in ISO8601 format.

Without setting a launch date, Gophish launches the campaign immediately.

Spreading out Emails

By default, Gophish sends all the emails in a campaign as quickly as possible. Instead, you may wish to spread emails out over a period of minutes, hours, days, or weeks. This is possible by setting the send_by_date to an ISO8601 formatted datetime. It's important to note that this must be after the launch_date.
