Change email subscription status

Use this endpoint to set the email subscription state for your users.

Users can be opted_in, unsubscribed, or subscribed (not specifically opted in or out).

You can set the email subscription state for an email address that is not yet associated with any of your users within Braze. When that email address is subsequently associated with a user, the email subscription state that you uploaded will be automatically set.

Prerequisites

To use this endpoint, you’ll need an API key with the email.status permission.

Rate limit
