hi Jafo,

I am interested in purchasing Paypal Assistant for my email subscription service but unsure whether it will work as I want.

This is the FuseMail API link http://www.fusemail.com/services/fusemail_apiv20.pdf for your reference (file size to big to upload).

My users will complete my website signup form, choose a subscription plan & pay using PayPal. After transaction completed, the datas from the signup form will be send to Fusemail website to auto create the account via API.

Will PayPal Assistant be able to perform all these tasks?


thanks

regards
Anthony

It will provided you have the PHP or Perl code to talk to the API. The script will oversee the transaction and then perform actions based on your criteria. Actions can consist of executing PHP (or Perl) code. Via the code, you could update the API.

thanks for the reply.


can I use the perl code example listed in the API & sort of paste it in the PP Assistant to execute the account creation?

From what I see of it, probably, but it would still require some editing. For example:

my($ResponseCode,$ResponseDetail) = FuseMailRequest({
'PlatformUser' => $PlatformUser,
'PlatformPassword' => $PlatformPassword,
'request' => 'order',
'user' => 'my_new_user',
'password' => 'abc123',
'first_name' => 'Jason',
'last_name' => 'Smith',
'email' => 'contact@email.org',
'street' => '123 MyStreet',
'city' => 'My City',
'state' => 'Missouri',
'postal' => '64154',
'country' => 'USA',
'account_type' => 'group_basic',
});

This would probably have to look SOMETHING like:

my($ResponseCode,$ResponseDetail) = FuseMailRequest({
'PlatformUser' => 'Username',
'PlatformPassword' => 'PASS',
'request' => 'order',
'user' => 'my_new_user',
'password' => 'abc123',
'first_name' => 'Jason',
'last_name' => 'Smith',
'email' => '[*payer_email*]',
'street' => '123 MyStreet',
'city' => '[*payer_city*]',
'state' => '[*payer_state*]',
'postal' => '[*payer_zip*]',
'country' => '[*payer_country*]',
'account_type' => 'group_basic',
});

Etc.. Using the variables sent back by paypal. It would definitely require some coding experience on your end to get it up and running
