Hey Ricky! Courier doesn't have a native Stripe integration, however we do have a profiles API that you could use to save Stripe data about each user: https://docs.courier.com/reference/profiles-api

so you could have a webhook setup in stripe that sends that data to Courier...when you make a send call all the profile information is available

would that solve for what you are trying to do? if not we also have a webhook feature that is currenlty in beta that might help

@User can stripe send data to courier profile api, or do i need the webhook to trigger a node api which in turns uses your sdk to update the profiles?

if you can explain a bit more about your specific use case I can give a better idea on the best approach but from what I understand now you would want to have a Stripe webhook that hits an endpoint for a function on your server...that function would make the corresponding call to the Courier API

@User correct, i would like to bypass my function though, and hit your api directly?

Sorry guys dumb question, how do i import receipients from my other provider, i have it in csv, but i dont clearly see a import option?

right now you would need a go between function, we may add support for direct events from Stripe in the future

we don't have a feature to import recipients. You could add them via the /providers API however https://docs.courier.com/reference/profiles-api

@User i see, i would need to write a function using the profile api to loop over my csv file and import.. doable, but im lazy, i prefer a import function for th ebulk, and then use the profile api to add single profiles later...

Ok thanks for the feedback, we'll definitely discuss that. That's a feature you will definitely see in marketing tools but our users typically only interact with our service via API so we haven't seen that request much yet. Is there a particular use case that necessitates you importing them all at once? Are you planning to do a batch send?

@User well the use case is that I want to port over automations to you guys, but currently I cant simply import a bulk of my recipients. I plan to use automations to send out non marketing emails to a segment of users. my guess is that your customer call the api's to import one email at a time perhaps? so for new lists maybe that would work, but not fold existing ones. hope im making sense.

i would only even import customers once in bulk and then use your profiles api's thereafter.

use batch sending for a segment of users, for example users who's trail is expiring, or users who have gone over their limits, etc. but i cant do this right now without importing the csv.

I see, the easiest way to get that existing list in to Courier would be to write a script that iterates over the list and imports them all using the /profiles API.

Hi everyone i'm zack i'm working on a it company for some web dev !

👋 hey Zack!

@everyone Hello Developers! We are actively building our presence on the website www.g2.com so that we can be seen alongside many of our providers like Postmark, Sendgrid, Twilio, and Mailgun. We are extending an offer of a $25 💰 Amazon gift card for anyone willing to take the time to leave a considerate review. It only takes about 5 minutes and would need you to log into G2. So if you already have a profile on G2 follow this link[ https://bit.ly/375tchU ] and get started. If you don't have a profile, you can still follow the link but it may take a bit longer to follow through. This is a great way for our company to get in front of business teams making organizational decisions like choosing providers. ⤴️ Many thanks from the Courier Team!

I know you guys have the ability to include attachments in emails (using AWS SES and S3) - my use case at the moment is I need to include a PDF with emails that are being sent out, however we have different people at my work who would like to customize their PDF templates with their own formatting e.g. logos, colors, formatting/layout etc. I was wondering if anyone knows of any PDF services that can take a look at or if Courier offers that out of the box. In essence, I just want to "PDF-tize" the email template and attach it to the email.

I haven't used any myself, but I know there are a few services that can do this. One that I think may be worth checking out is PDF Monkey: https://www.pdfmonkey.io/

(we don't have this ability ourselves currently)

Sweet, I'll check it out - I know you don't do the PDF generation with your service, just wondering what other clients or customers where doing with that sort of stuff

tbh I'll probably end up doing my PDF generation internally then placing that into an S3 bucket or something along those lines - I'm just exploring all the options at the moment

to the best of my knowledge that is what current customers are doing – I'll keep my ears open though!

depending on the TYPE of PDF, you may be able to find a more specific SaaS that covers it-- like contracts or proposals or the such.

@User hey

hi everyone 👋 i'm wondering if it's possible to specify a cancellation token when creating an automation from a template 🤔 the API docs show some examples here but they do not show if you can specify a cancellation token when POSTing to

/automations/{templateId}/invoke
