When editing a contact, lists are mandatory (field p[123]) is there an easy way to edit the contact and keeping its current lists?

Does the the param returned ''listslist" returns all the lits separated by a dash? ( listslist: '1-2' )

On p[123] description there's a warning I don't quite get. WARNING: if overwrite = 1 (which is the default) this call will silently UNSUBSCRIBE this contact from any lists not included in this parameter.

Does that mean I can maybe do something p[1] = listslist to achieve what I need to?

I am trying to get a list of contacts from AC.

var contact_list = ac.api("contact/list", {}); contact_list.then(function(result) { // successful request console.log(result); }, function(result) { // request error });

This returns nothing even though contacts are associated with the account.

{ result_code: 0, result_message: 'Failed: Nothing is returned', result_output: 'json', success: 0, error: 'Failed: Nothing is returned' }

How do I use this to return results?

Hi all,

Thanks in advance for taking time and reading my proposal.

Main issue: AC does not migrate accounts on AC from A(ENV) to B(ENV) both inside active campaign, imagine for example replicating, cloning the test platform to production and the opposite even though it would have less sense.

We are developing a script to make this migration but we have serious trouble, some entities that were created in A, can't be created in B because they miss fields, even though they exist like that in A, B can't create them. Does no seem to be very consistent.
Also, there's no way we can force the forms, lists or entities to have a specific ID. Our issue is that we would need to keep the IDS and keys too after migration.

First problem I found, FORMS POST even though its not documented I could access it but can't set the ID we need to set. After using it its impossible to force the IDS. From the architectural perspective I think i t has a lot more sense to generate a more robust Id not just an integer and also letting users define a unique key value( we could use to search as the ID now)

My feature request would be: Exporting all env info a JSON, Importing env from a JSON.
If thats not possible, i'd say at least adding an option in PUT requests to allow users to set custom identifier for whatever they are creating.

The link View our full API documentation in the readme.md is not working. There is a redirect loop and thus the documentation cannot be accessed.

This library depends on the Request library which has been deprecated for two years. There is an advisory on that library that will likely not be fixed. Is there a mitigation plan for this library to address the issue and move off of Request?

When activeCampaign load balancer returns a 503 error message. The NodeJS package is not able to parse or generate the response and returns the string "Error:", instead of "Error: ${error.message}" or something like that.

Expected behavior:

1. Returning the Error object
2. Return descriptive Error message for cases like those.

Current Behavior:

1. Returns an empty string as error
2. Try catch returns a string as an error, instead of an error object.

When I pass an array for tags the result is a little messed up. Am I using this correctly?

var data = {
  email: this._user.email,
  tags: ['foo','bar']
}
ac.api('contact/tag_add', data).then(function (result) {
  console.log("DEBUG: success", result)
}, function (result) {
  console.log("DEBUG: error", result)
})

I have a problem with how the url is built, after I log an event with api('tracking/log'), the connector url changes to "https://trackcmp.net/event", making all the other api calls imposible to reach after that.

I keep getting this error with all calls as if i was trying to log an event:
{"success":0,"message":"An account ID must be provided."}

Is there a way to reset the connector to the original url? Am I missing something?

Cheers

How can I dynamically retrieve all custom contact fields?
I.e: https://developers.activecampaign.com/reference#retrieve-fields-1

var mailUrl = new ActiveCampaign(
"https://URL.api-us1.com",
"KEY"
);
var contact = {
email: "[email protected]",
first_name: "john",
last_name: "deo",
phone: 7878787788,
};
var contact_add = mailUrl.api("contact/add", contact);
contact_add.then(
function (result) {
console.log("success result", result);
},
function (result) {
console.log("fail result", result);
}
);

// after contact added successfully in active campaign send welcome email to that contact

Hi I am tring to add contact, added successfully but firstName and lastName is not showing as full name.
Please also let me know how I can add contact in list?
Please help.

Looking at the contact/delete documentation, I couldn't find a variable to specify deleting a contact only from a particular list.

This would make it easier when transferring contacts from one list to another (ex: cold leads to warm leads).

Thanks

I want to get all list & also want to view the contact.So I'm using this code:
ac.api("list/view",{});
output : "result_code": 0,
"result_message": "Failed: Nothing is returned",
"result_output": "json",
"success": 0,
"error": "Failed: Nothing is returned"

Could you please tell me how can I make the request for getting all List & add contact in the List by using this wrapper

var contacts_get = ac.api("contact/list?ids=all", {}); contacts_get.then(function(result) { // successful request console.log("result is ", result); }, function(result) { // request error });

Ids all is no longer working, this returns an empty object.

Hi, I have used the API to add a contact to a list. There is an automation on my account that should trigger once a contact subscribes to a specific list. However, when the user is added through the API, the contact does not automatically get added to the automation. It seems like I have to make another request to add the contact to that automation. This can cause an application to easily reach the 5 req/s cap if more than two users sign up simultaneously.

I wrote a code snippet that transfers a contact from one list to the other if they exist in the system. If they don't exist, it creates a new contact and adds them to the system. This code snippet doesn't work though.

var contact_exists = ac.api("contact/[email protected]", {}, function(response){
  var contact;
  if(response){
    if(response.lists[30]){     //If subscriner is already subscribed, does nothing
      return;
    }
    contact = {
      email: response.email,
      'p[123]': 30,                                       //adds subscriber to list
      'status[123]': 1,
    };
    if(response.first_name){  
      contact.first_name = response.first_name;
    }
    if(response.last_name){
      contact.last_name = response.last_name;
    }
    if(response.fields[4]){
      contact.fields[28, 0] = response.fields[4].val;     //adds field name if available
    }

    var contact_delete = ac.api('contact/delete', {'id': response.id}, function(nestedresponse){
      console.log(nestedresponse);
    });
  }

// If contact is not in the list, the following blocks of code should still execute, but they don't  

  contact.email = "[email protected]";
  contact.p[123] = 30;
  contact.status[123] = 1;

  // Add the contact to the subscribed list

  var contact_add = ac.api("contact/add", contact, function(response){
    console.log(response);
  });
});

In the readme, you have:

new ActiveCampaign("https://ACCOUNT.api-us1.com", {{KEY}});

In ES6, {KEY} is equivalent to { KEY: KEY }, which would lead me to believe that the right way to create a new instance would be something like:

const ac = new ActiveCampaign('https://account.api-us1.com', {
    KEY: 'some key',
});

When instead, it's actually:

const ac = new ActiveCampaign('https://account.api-us1.com', 'some key');

I am attempting to do contact/sync.

try {
  const data = {
    email: form_data.email,
    ip4: ctx.request.ip,
    form: form_id,
    api_output: 'json'
    // some more fields...
  }
  // In my app, the ctx.acApi is equal to ActiveCampaign.api
  const acRequest = await ctx.acApi(`contact/sync`, data)
  // do some things with response, irrelevant to this issue
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error)
}

And as a response I get (in XML, I might add, not in the requested JSON format):

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<root><error>You are not authorized to access this file</error></root>

Earlier in the app (when it boots) I run this:

const authCheck = await ctx.acApi.credentials_test() // this has a success: true

Could you tell me what is going wrong here?

Is this still maintained?
Seems to use the old v1 PHP API.

Hi,

I've had to manually add note_add to my whitelist in the Contact.js file. Can't see a way of providing my own whitelist.

It's missing the other note actions as well as automation_list.

Cheers,
Q

Hi, I want to be able to send a mail to a particular user. I tried to use this API but it returns this response:

{
    "result_code": 0,
    "result_message": "Please send this campaign through the web interface to continue.",
    "result_output": "json"
}

Would be great to get some Typescript types

I got error [NOT FOUND MODULE] while sending request to "tags/list" url via your wrap. There are no Tags.js in lib folder.

Lately when I've been trying to query Active Campaign's api, it has been returning what looks like an out of service message:

<div align="center" style="font-size:12px; font-family:Arial;">We are currently having some issues. Please check back soon.</div>

However, it looks like the node wrapper attempts to JSON.parse() this response, and this causes the script to crash.

Here is the relevant stack trace:

<div align="center" style="font-size:12px; font-family:Arial;">We are currently having some issues.  Please check back soon.</div>

This code fires a Invalid API method error:

        var eventdata = {
            tag: 'somesampletag',
            email: '[email protected]'
        };

        ac.api('contact/tag/add', eventdata).then(function(result) {
            console.log('success', result);
        }, function(result) {
            console.log('failure', redirect);
        });     

the contact has been created earlier by calling ac.api('contact/add').

Hello, I can't seem to retrieve contacts by listid. Here's my code

var contacts_get = ac.api("contact/list?listid=1", {});
        contacts_get.then(function(result) {
            // successful request
            console.log("result is ", result);
        }, function(result) {
            // request error
        });

However, if I change the request contact/list?ids=all I get all contacts. I've also tried contact/list?ids=all&listid=1 but that returns all contacts, even those not part of the listid. Is this a bug or am I missing something? Thanks.

Hi,
I wanted to try to single sign on but whenever i tried i get session expired message.

This is the error which comes on url.

https://kamrantestcompany.activehosted.com/admin/index.php?error_mesg=timeout&redir=aHR0cHM6Ly9rYW1yYW50ZXN0Y29tcGFueS5hY3RpdmVob3N0ZWQuY29tL2FkbWluL21haW4ucGhwP19zc290PTExZDEyYTFlYWE1NmVkZmJmOGRjYzVjYjQ1ODI5YWQ5

Not sure what does it mean. I want to figure this out if you could help me.

Using code from this link

All parts of the example code work for me (the GET and the POST) except for the part where it checks whether the contact exists. Here's the full error log:

Here is the code I wrote so far:

var contact_list = ac.api("contact/list", {}, function(response) {
  console.log(response);
});

This is the error it gives:

/Users/Thakkery/Sites/omninox-local/node_modules/activecampaign/lib/ActiveCampaign.js:71
                throw new Error("Invalid API method.");
                      ^

Thanks for merging my pull request #24. Could you please create a new release on npm with this bug fix?

I have installed and tested the packed in meteor.js locally and is working fine.

After deploying to a staging server I get the following error..

/bundle/programs/server/node_modules/fibers/future.js:280
throw(ex);

This looks like it supports your API v1. Do you have a library which supports v3?

Hello Sir,
I using this wrapper for a long time & it's working properly until last 2 days.Even I try to used API but it isn't working now.Can you please checkout once.

I'm able to make API call's to the api but when there is a error response, it's not in a JSON format. Could we update the API to return in a JSON error format?

The exception isn't helpful as I don't know the reason for the error in the first place.

var api_request = new RSVP.Promise(function(fulfill, reject) { request(request_options, function(error, response, body) { try { JSON.parse(body); } catch (e) { reject("Not a valid JSON object.") return; }

Calling any API function requires an empty object be passed, e.g:

var account_view = ac.api("account/view", {}); // <-- {} needed, even without options

It would be far cleaner if on this line you had a default prop:

api: function(path, post_data = {})

... which would mean the api call could simply be:

ac.api("account/view");

... in the absence of options.

Hi,

I do a GET request on my Vuejs app (localhost:8080) and have some CORS problems :
"Access to fetch at 'my_url/admin/api.php?api_key=my_key&api_action=contact_view_email&api_output=json&email=[email protected]' from origin 'http://localhost:8080' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled."

I have the same problem when I use a simple fetch instead of your library.

How can I manage CORS?

Thanks for your help

Hello,

I'm trying to add new members to my contacts and a specific mailing list, however all the examples I could find were for PHP.
So I tried to structure it the same way as Lists are gotten from a GET request, I didn't get an error, but no success adding the user to the list:

this is what I've been trying:

var lists = {'5': 5};
            var status = {'5': 1};
            var contact = {
                email: user.email
                ,p: lists
                ,status: status
            };

// Add contact
            var post_test = ac.api("contact/add", contact).then(function (result) {
                // successful request
                console.log(result);
            }, function (result) {
                console.log("ERROR",result);
                // request error
            });

I'd appreciate any help or pointers in the right direction, Thanks!

Current version of ActiveCampaign API is NOT supported by this package and there is no info about this in docs. Do not use it in your project!
