We currently have a workflow where users submit data by sending an email to a custom incoming email address, creating a staged user and a private message to a Discourse group. Is it possible to achieve the same workflow using API calls? Basically 1) create staged user, 2) generate API key for that …

You can check if sidekiq is running by browsing to /sidekiq, but I think there is likely an issue with the raw email now that the api request is succeeding. There are several tabs in the admin dashboard you can check for email errors. /admin/email/sent /admin/email/skipped /admin/email/bounced /ad…

Yes, sidekiq is running. I checked the /admin/email tabs - looks like my “emails” are actually rejected. This is what I get: [2020-02-25_23-54-40] I inserted the same email text in the “Advanced text” tab, and it seems to be working, if each part (Date, From, To, Subject) starts with a new line,…

I’m not sure. Looks like it doesn’t like any of the fields in your email. I used ruby to generate the curl command and ruby to read my email text file I wrote, but yes it appears to be a newline issue. Can you have curl read an email file that has actual newlines in it? curl -X POST -i -F para…

You were right - that was a newline issue. I tried the same API call from Postman, and it worked - a new staged user was created and a topic on his behalf. But: no email was sent to this user’s address! I also posted a comment in the topic - no email notification either. Is there a setting that pre…

[image] dm.linov: There was a indeed a setting that prevented sending post notifications Which setting for anyone following along? I don’t think I had to change anything, so just curious. [image] dm.linov: Why there wasn’t an email informing the staged user that the topic was created and…

[image] dm.linov: There was a indeed a setting that prevented sending post notifications Which setting for anyone following along? There actually were several. default email level - default is “only when away” email time window - default is 10 minutes, so the notification email is not se…

By design there are several fields that are omitted for staged users in email templates (like the respond instructions): app/mailers/user_notifications.rb 3568f296a unsubscribe_url: post.unsubscribe_url(user), allow_reply_by_email: allow_reply_by_…

[image] blake: I don’t think you can customize the email template to look one way for staged users and another way for non-staged users Actually, it would be enought if the template looks the same way for regular and staged users :slight_smile: I’ll think, what I could do. Thank you for the …

One last question (hopefully): how can a staged user unsubscribe from receiving new posts to the topic created on his behalf?
