Hello.
At this time, Mailster does not allow us to add a subscriber to a list based on which link they click on in a newsletter. Is it possible to use this plugin to get this to work.
I want to send a newsletter with three options that can be clicked on, based on what they click on they will be added to a specific list.
Please let me know what you think. Thank you and have an amazing day!
Hi,
You can add subscriber to multiple or single list based on your requirements, Here is a example of request. { firstname”, “lastname”: “Doe”, email”, list_ids] }
please let me know if it fulfill your requirements.
Thank you. Is this something you can help me set up when I purchase or is that an additional charge?
Thank you and have an amazing day!

Sent. Thank you and have an amazing day!
Hi, I have a pre-sale question. I use Mailster right now on my website. I’ve created a popular Python program. When a user is going through the setup I would like to give the user the ability to signup for our newsletter. My question. With your REST API for Mailster if I add an email field in the program would I be able to perform an API post with the user email address with the specific list I would like them to join? Does the api have a key value for particular lists? This way I can assign a list for the program and send emails when an update is available etc. Do you have a list of the API parameters (key:values)? Does the program return a status if successful/error? If so, is it a json format? Thank you.
Hi, I was searching Google and came across your KB article on this plugin. It answered all my questions. Plus, it even had screen shots from Postman. Which is awesome. I use Postman to test the API’s too. Thank you!
FYI, for any future customer. Here is a link to the KB article: https://wpintegrate.com/kb-article/mailster-rest-api-plugin-documentation/
Does anyone answer support requests??? I’ve sent two inside CodeCanyn and two on your Websites support page. It’s been over a week and no response?
Hi 2pupsnacat – Sorry for the delay. I think we had responded earlier. Please let us know if you need any additional assistance. You can email us directly for support at info[a-t]wpintegrate.com as needed.
No…you have not responded at all. I’ve been waiting a week for help. I still am. You might want to check your website form and code canyon. I’ve sent FOUR support requests. I starting to get tired of typing the same thing over and over again.
Our codecanyon comment notification option was turned off. Sorry again.
What about on your website? I sent two message each time I sent on CodeCanyon. And you just replied let us know if there is anything you can do. I still have not received an answer to my question. I’ve emailed it twice to you at the email address you provided. It’s a bit frustrating at this point.
We responded to you via email and you have since responded back to us. Thanks again.
I guess the best way it just to post my question here. On CodeCanyon description of Mailster API it dosn’t state that you require a username and password. I’ve created a popular Python program. In the program during the setup process it asks the user if they would like to subscribe to our newsletter. It will be a specific newsletter list. For that program. To keep the end user updated on the program. I’ve tested it with Postman and it’s working. Including assigning to the specific list. What I don’t understand is the authentication portion. How do I keep this secure. I can create a dummy user with admin privileges but the username and password would be in the source code. Anyone could easily go through source code and find the username and password. Making a huge security hole. How do I make an API post securely with a user that is completely new with no account on the website?
I have emailed you twice with this question. I emailed you twice this morning with this specific question. I’m not sure where the break down of communication is. I don’t know what more I can do!
Below is the response to your questions we responded to via email:
I purchased Mailster API so that I could post new users to a specific list. I’ve created a popular Python program. During setup it will ask the user if they want to subscribe to our specific newsletter that is related to the program for updates, security patches, etc. I’ve tested it in Postman and it’s working. The problem is the authentication.
The CodeCanyon description does not state that you need a username and password. Normally you generate an API code. I’m not sure how to do this securely. CH>> A username and password is needed, as it is using basic authentication. There is a WordPress plugin for application password that should be going into WordPress core that we could support if needed. Application Passwords – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org
I can create a dummy user with admin privileges but the username and password would be in the source code. Anyone could go through the source code and see the username and password. With admin privileges this is a huge security hole. Even with a user that has minimum privileges is still a security hole. CH>> Correct, this would be an issue for API keys as well if your code was comprised as well at the server level.
I’m not sure what the secure way is to make a post to subscribe a new user. CH>> Please use the methods provided in the documentation.
Future customers, please be CAREFUL! On the documentation (KB article) they are using Postman and it shows “admin” as the credentials. I’ve spend the past hour…pulling teeth…to obtain answers to my questions. I kept pressing. Trying to ask what is a “secure” and proper way of making a post to the newsletter for a new user. A new user will not have a username and password. The only thing I could find from the documentation is that you create a dummy user with admin privileges. But, I didn’t understand how I add this username/password or token from the plugin they refereed me to securely. It would be in the source code. Anyone could find it. Causing a huge security nightmare. I pressed and pressed trying to obtain a clear answer. Here is the first response: This would have to be used via abstracted code to make any call whether for the admin or a regular user on the Website. I responded with: I don’t understand “abstracted code” Do you have an example I can try on Postman. And here is the response. PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS!!! Hide it within code or config files etc. That was the response. PLEASE PLEASE do not do this! You are opening yourself up to a nightmare including possible legal lawsuits from all your members information being hacked. Never ever do this. Plain and simple!
As we disclosed before, we DON’T support your specific business use case of having all users being able to write to the rest apis, this would require a more robust user authentication layer, and thus wasn’t the intent of the plugin. The plugin was designed to use Zapier or similar services to work with the rest APIs, which would be outside of WordPress, thus the postman samples in the documentation. Best regards.
We are awaiting the refund request you expressed you wanted.
I send many support requests. But I got no answer! Mailster Rest API does not work fine with wordfence AND it gives an error when adding email that already exists that makes Zapier turn off the zap. I need help. And my support time is finishing, but you don’t answer my requests
I have not heard about this issue before, but we will take a look. Please send us a support request at info@wpintegrate.com
Have you received my email?
Yes, we have responded and will follow up.
Can I pass and store custom fields when creating subscribers using the REST API?
Hi, Yes you can save custom fields as well. When creating subscriber using REST API. Please let me know if you have any other concern.
Pre Sale Question:
Will this automatically provide a webhook URL?
So I can use this with Elementors forms? As then allow webhooks.
No this solution is only rest apis, no webbooks are available.
Hi. Is this still working/being developed?
Yes
Hi, you outline functions in your docu (https://wpintegrate.com/kb-article/mailster-rest-api-plugin-documentation/). Are there more details anywhere? How does it look like to ad a subscriber.
Hi,
you can check the doc under Newsletter >> Rest API in your WP-Admin. I have also updated the kb article so you can check that as well.
Is it also possible to Change subscribers details (e.g. lists)?
Yes, this should be possible.
How is this possible by your API (not indocumentation)?
in addition: is it also possible to create lists by api?
No list creation is not supported currently.
I saw your documentation, it is not at all detailed. Please include some use case examples for common operation between Mailster and some popular apps like HubSpot crm, data from one Wordpress site to another Wordpress site hosting Mailster, gravity forms data from one site to another site hosting Mailster. Both read and write operations are required for all. Please update documentation with use case examples. It will make use of plugin so much easy and make it worth buying. If you intent to update please let us know the plan and timeline as I am very keep on buying the plugin but not with the current status of documentation
1) We will be providing more real world examples sometime in the near future. 2) We have a new version in the works which will be available soon.
What do you mean by “WordPress installation with Http_Authentication enabled on said server”? How can I enable Http Authentication?
“WordPress installation with Http_Authentication enabled on said server” Please see https://wpintegrate.com/kb-article/wordpress-rest-api-basic-authentication-with-http-authorization/
I get 401 unauthorized error when I try to call your rest api (any of the api provided). How can I solve the problem?
Changes are you have not used basic authentication to access the rest api endpoints.
Where are the docs? How is Authentication handled?
Hello. I´m having problems with the requirement: “WordPress installation with Http_Authentication enabled on said server”. Can you explain how to enable this? Thanks
Please send us an email at info[]wpintegrate.com so we can look at this issue.
Maybe silly question
But can i use integromat to import mailchimp users automatically to specific mailster Lists?
This Pluggin allows that?
Thanks
Yes using tools like integramat, zapier, mulesoft will be fine.
Hi. We are looking to send mailster subscriber information to a CRM and/or a google sheet. We want to send the subscriber contact information only for subscribers on a particular list who meet a minimum star rating. Is this possible with this API? Thank you
Yes, the data you are looking to send will be available via the provided rest api endpoints.
Great. Thank you
Plugin works great! I use it to subscribe users of my app to my newsletter. One little question: Is it possible to enable Double-Opt-in? Best Regards.
I’ll check with the developers and get back to you shortly.
Send us an email at info[]wpintegrate.com regarding this request.
Pre-Sale Question: I want to add users with name and email with Integromat or IFTTT or something else… Is it possible? Or I can just read data from it? Thank you!
Yes, we have confirmed with our developer that both read and write is supported for the rest api.
Thank you for the quick reply! I’ll buy it.
Thanks
Hi wpintegrate! I’ve purchased few weeks ago your plugin and this evening I’ve tried for the first time to create a campaign. Even if the campaign was created (activated) and there is at least one subscriber associated with the mailing list for the campaign, my campaing is in progress and remains in progress. I have to notice that I’m using the latest Mailster version. Could you please help me on this topic? Thank you.
Hi Mihu90 – We will look in your feedback and provide some feedback shortly.
Hi, After activating the mailster rest api plugin, Rest API sub menu will be added to Newsletter menu. You can check documentation there.
