[ACTION] Loops.so - Add to Mailing List

[johndbritton]

Is there a specific app this action is for?

Loops.so

Please provide a link to the relevant API docs for the specific service / operation.

The "Create Contact" action should support sending the optional mailingLists property. The values of that property need to be fetched from the Loops.so API.

Additionally, there should probably be an action to add a contact to a mailing list.

It should also be possible to set all of these properties from the "Create Contact" action:

Hi @johndbritton , here’s a summary of the solution for the "Create Contact" action with support for the mailingLists property in Loops.so.

Solution Overview

The "Create Contact" action in Loops.so enables you to add a new contact with various configurable properties, including optional support for associating the contact with specific mailing lists.

Supported Properties for Create Contact

The following fields are available when creating a contact:

• Last Name (lastName): The contact's last name.
• Email (email): The contact's email address (required).
• Notes (notes): Any additional information about the contact.
• Source (source): Identifies the origin of the contact, e.g., "API".
• User Group (userGroup): Specifies the group to which the contact belongs.
• User ID (userId): A unique identifier for the contact.

Example JSON Payload

{
  "email": "example@example.com",
  "lastName": "Doe",
  "notes": "Important client",
  "source": "API",
  "userGroup": "premium_users",
  "userId": "12345"
}

Mailing Lists Support

The mailingLists property allows for optional inclusion of mailing lists to which the contact should be subscribed. This property is available in the Loops.so API.

Relevant Documentation Links

• API Introduction
• Create Contact Documentation
• Mailing Lists Management

This setup should provide flexibility for adding and managing contacts, including support for associating them with mailing lists. Please let me know if there are any other requirements!

I understand that the property is available in the API, however in the Pipedream UI for the Create Contact action it's not possible to specify arbitrary parameters, unless I'm missing something.
