Q: Contacts API

Hi! How can I add a contact via the API without requiring account confirmation? When adding an email manually, account confirmation isn't required. Why is it required with the API? I need to automate registrations in my app. The user previously confirmed their account in the app, so I don't need a double confirmation. Your API documentation is super basic; you could improve it a lot.

A: Hello abdiel7,

Thank you for your email.
We are happy to assist and explain.

Every SendFox lifetime account has a mandatory double opt-in.

The Empire Add-On plan we have is a monthly subscription that you can activate via your billing page in your SendFox account after purchasing the LTD plan, and that plan offers no double opt-in.
And this is the only way to disable double opt-in for contacts coming via API and contacts signing up via forms.

With kind regards,
Team Originals

I think it's rude of them to respond so late and without validating anything. I'm already a customer as I said before and I also have the Empire Add-on subscription and I can't disable anything. Also, how do you explain that I don't need double opt-in when I register them on the portal? This only happens via the API. I DO NOT need my users to confirm anything because they already do it in my app.
