Callbacks

Callbacks allow external systems to be notified about GetResponse contact activities.

Configuration

Callbacks can be managed using API GET /accounts/callbacks, POST /accounts/callbacks and DELETE /accounts/callbacks methods or on web interface.

We support SSL, so you can use either HTTP or HTTPS for callback messages.

Parameters

Sample HTTP callback looks like this:

http
http://foo.bar/callback?action=open \ 
 &ACCOUNT_ID=A1&account_login=myaccount \ 
 &CAMPAIGN_ID=C1&campaign_name=mycampaign \ 
 &MESSAGE_ID=M1&message_name=My%20message&message_subject=Some%20subject \ 
 &CONTACT_ID=C1&contact_name=Friend&contact_email=friend@implix.com

All *_ID params are compatible with corresponding identifiers in API. So for example after receiving open callback one may call get_message API method with MESSAGE_ID from callback to fetch additional information about opened message. Those params are case-sensitive.

Failures

Callback timeout is 4 seconds, callbacks that are not received are lost and will not be repeated.

Make sure that the target server is capable of handling the expected amount of requests, especially when SSL URL is given which is more CPU-intensive.

Support

The GetResponse Callback interface is created and maintained by the GetResponse DevZone Team.
