Getting started

  1. Read our best practices to understand what you can do and learn the recommended approaches.

  2. Download Demo Client and choose among several available programming languages.

  3. Test Resource Access with your MailUp account. Don't have one? Request a developer account.

  4. After getting acquainted with the API, get your API keys & build your own application.

Integrating your application

A few things to keep in mind:

  • The MailUp REST API uses Oauth2 and requires a token refresh. You can use the available samples to see how to refresh the authorization token

  • By properly setting the request header you can set the response format as JSON or XML

  • Each application is tied to a set of application keys, which are used to authorize the application (get yours).

  • Users of the application will be authenticated using their own MailUp account credentials.
  • The application keys used in the sample code shall not be used in a production environment.


Tip
titleGetting stuck while developing your application?

Take another look at the "Getting Started" section: the demo client can help a lot. Also, before contacting us, please consider that most of the questions that we receive are about...

  • Authorization (application keys) vs. authentication (MailUp account credentials): see Authenticating with OAuth v2.

  • Expired tokens: the token has to be refreshed, please use the available samples as guidelines.

  • Wrong credentials (e.g. trying to access to your production account with the credentials of your developer account, or viceversa).

  • Unexpected behavior of an API call due to unchecked error codes that were returned by previous API calls.

  • Developers that are unfamiliar with MailUp terminology (Resource Access section and related links should be helpful).

titleEmail campaigns vs. Transactional Emails
