API Documentation

Getting Started

• Create an API key

Create an API key under the Account Section of the app and find the API Keys section.

The API key should have the access control events_trigger_access

• Create an event

Create an API key under the Event Section of the app and copy the identifier field which will be used in the next step.

• Triggering an event

Instantiate a new instance of Cocomail and provide the API key created earlier.

const cocoClient = new Cocomail(process.env.COCOMAIL_API_KEY);

const identifier = 'SIGNUP'
const response = await cocoClient.triggerEvent({
  identifier: identifier,
  email: email
});

Required fields

email

The email of the contact that triggered the event - If a contact with the email does not already exist it will be created

identifier

The identifier of the event to trigger.

Events can be created under the Events tab of the dashboard.

Optional fields

consentsToEmails

Default value: true

If the created contact consents to receive emails or not

const cocoClient = new Cocomail(process.env.COCOMAIL_API_KEY);

const identifier = 'SIGNUP';
const userReceivesToMarketingEmails = true;

const response = await cocoClient.triggerEvent({
  identifier: identifier,
  email: email,
  consentsToEmails: userReceivesToMarketingEmails
});

---

contactMetadata

Default value: empty object

Metadata that should be added to the contact when the event is triggered. If the field already exists on the contact it will be updated with the new values.

const cocoClient = new Cocomail(process.env.COCOMAIL_API_KEY);

const identifier = 'SIGNUP'
const response = await cocoClient.triggerEvent({
  identifier: identifier,
  email: email,
  contactMetadata: {
    signed_up_at = new Date().toString();
  }
});

---

triggerMetadata

Default value: empty object

Metadata that should only be used for the duration of the request and in subsequent Automations triggered by the event.

The forgot_password_link field in the request will be substituted with the {{forgot_password_link}} template variable in the Email Template

const cocoClient = new Cocomail(process.env.COCOMAIL_API_KEY);

const identifier = 'FORGOT_PASSWORD'
const response = await cocoClient.triggerEvent({
  identifier: identifier,
  email: email,
  triggerMetadata: {
    forgot_password_link = "https://app-url.com/forgot-password/unique-password-reset-link"
  }
});
