EmailSubscribers
Update email subscriber
Update component selections or admin-verify a pending email subscriber.
PUT /app/subscribers/email/subscribers/{dashboardId}/{email}
Updates service selections for a verified subscriber, or admin-verifies a pending subscriber when verify is true.
Path parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
dashboardId | uuid | Dashboard the subscription belongs to |
email | string | Normalized subscriber email address |
Request
See API Basics for required headers.
Body
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
componentIds | uuid[] | Yes | Component IDs on the dashboard |
verify | boolean | No | Set to true to activate a pending subscriber |
locked | boolean | No | Admin-managed flag. When true, blocks dashboard self-service subscribe/manage but the address still receives event notifications. Omit on update to leave unchanged; defaults to false when verifying pending. |
Behavior
| Subscriber status | verify | componentIds | locked | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Verified | omitted or false | Any (may be empty) | omitted | Update selections; empty array stops notifications (paused: true) |
| Verified | omitted or false | Any | true or false | Update selections and lock state |
| Verified | true | — | — | 400 — already verified |
| Pending | true | At least one | omitted or false | Admin-verify; no verification email sent |
| Pending | true | At least one | true | Admin-verify as admin-managed (locked) |
| Pending | omitted or false | — | — | 400 — set verify to true |
Pending subscribers already count toward quota; verifying does not consume an additional slot.
