[idea] Sync opt-in status
rcknr opened this issue · 5 comments
A boolean field to sync user opt-in status (subscribed/unsubscribed).
Closing, lets use the PR as the discussion point (as I've commented there!)
Hi! I have submitted this while working on a project that is now concluded. However, I could modify the PR to accommodate your suggestions. I'm not sure how to proceed since you have closed the request. Please advice.
Hi @rcknr , sorry for the confusion, I wanted to make sure we have a single thread for the discussion, and would rather that be on your PR #15, if you're happy with that? Alternatively, can convert this issue to a feature one, and link the PR.
If you'd like to do the changes, that would be great, thanks!
Similar to as proposed in #43 , I think we can have a object based syntax to allow syncing of contact status in the merge fields handler, as that handler talks to the same API as where status updates need to be sent.
Merge field config would then be in this shape:
{
"mergeFields": {
"firstName": "FNAME",
"lastName": "LNAME",
"phoneNumber": "PHONE"
},
"status": {
"mailchimpFieldName": "subscriberStatus", <- Field that will indicate the users Status
"format": "boolean|string" <- Determines whether the Status field will be interpreted as a simple "subscribed/unsubscribed" or whether they want to provide the full status
}
"subscriberEmail": "emailAddress"
} With the status configuration being optional.
