Are there plans to transition to Mailchimp 3.0?
+1
Hey guys!
Yes, there are plans to transition to v3.0 but since this package's dependency is not yet transitioned (nor is the official one) I can't do much yet, sorry.
Stay tuned for updates ;)
Fantastic, just starred the repo :) Thanks man!
Does anyone know how long 2.0 will continue to operate? Googled, but couldn't find an answer.
According to Pete @ MailChimp - long enough ;)
Thanks for the quick response and link. I've signed up for the 2.0 Warning email :)
Hey Guys!
I just got an email from Mailchimp stating...
At end of 2016, previous versions of the MailChimp API will no longer be operational. This allows us to focus all of our resources on developing new features and functionality.
Hope the dependencies get updated as we are just rolling out an implementation using this package.
I'll keep my eyes peeled for updates as well ;)
Any update?
Nope :(
Heyo! Anyone else get this email from Mailchimp?
As of Dec. 31, 2016, previous versions of MailChimp’s APIs will no longer be supported. Everyone will use version 3.0.
Is there any hope of this package getting updated before then (I know Miro said it's dependencies are the hold-up)? Or should we opt for other direction... Any ideas what can be done??
Thanks!
We use this package in quite a few projects.
Please inform if we should be worried about any of this.
Thx.
Got this email from Mailchimp a few days ago...
A few weeks back we wrote to remind you we're retiring all older versions of our API at the end of the year. We’ve received valuable feedback in the weeks since our first API retirement announcement, and we wanted to clarify a question that we’ve continually received from our developer community.
As of Jan. 1st, 2017, all previous versions of MailChimp’s API will no longer be supported. Any calls that are made using older versions of the API will be operational for the near future, but as we continue to develop new features within MailChimp, we can’t guarantee that older versions of the API will continue to work as expected. We’ll push all developers to build using the latest version of our API.
Looks like things will still function, but they're not guaranteeing (or offering support for) it.
I currently use the simplest portions of the API (adding a subscriber to a list and logging the unsubscribes). I asked them about it, and here's what I got back:
Since you are using a relatively simple version of the API everything should remain pretty much the same for you. The endpoints would change however. To add a subscriber the call would be like:
POST /lists/{list_id}/members
You can read more about that here http://developer.mailchimp.com/documentation/mailchimp/reference/lists/members/For the unsubscribe webhook it would look like this:
POST /lists/{list_id}/webhooks
More about that can be read about here http://developer.mailchimp.com/documentation/mailchimp/reference/lists/webhooks/
Not sure how the changing of the endpoints affects this package, but hope this helps.
Hey @MiroHibler. Hope all is well.
Don't forget to update us if you hear of any news or breakthroughs.
Hey @crsssl, I'm still keeping my eyes peeled but no breakthroughs yet...
