Available solutions
You can develop your integration with MailUp by mixing the available solutions, taking advantage of the features they provide. Each listed item is a link to the correspondent documentation.
- HTTP GET/POST (includes Subscription forms, that are based on the same methods)
- SOAP API
- REST API
- SMTP+ (SMTP Relay)
- FTP
- List+
- Frontend reporting pages
Development can be done starting from scratch learning from available samples (see docs for each solution), or you can use the RubyGem (that is a wrapper of REST API)
