Subscribe a user

Use the subscribe mutation to opt-in a user to a subscription. Note that a legal disclosure is required when a user is opted-in programmatically. For transactional messages, you must include a transactional opt-in unit. By default, if a subscription already exists, it will try and record the attempt to create the subscription again. For TEXT subscriptions, this will result in a message being sent to the person indicating that they are already subscribed.

The following input fields are provided:

user - Required. The user being subscribed. Note that this is a visitor to the site and does not need to be actively subscribed to Attentive. An email, phone, or both can be provided.

signupSourceId - Required. The unique identifier of the sign-up source. This can be found in the Subscribers tab of the Attentive platform in the ID column for any API sign-up method.

externalIdentifiers - Optional. If the user is associated with non-Attentive external ids, they can be included here. Options include Shopify id, Klaviyo id, or a list of custom identifiers.

The response will provide details about the new or existing subscriptions.
