addSubscribers

Adds subscribers to a list in your Juvlon account.

You can add upto 100,000 subscribers along with personalizations like first name, last name, etc. (subscriber data that you may want to use in your emails to your subscribers) in each API call.

You need to mandatorily provide either an email address or a mobile number for each subscriber. If neither is provided, then the subscriber will not be added to the list.

Some of the subscribers that you provide may already exist in your Juvlon account (in the same list or another list). You can choose how you wish to add them to your list:

•Update the personalization fields of the already existing subscriber with the data provided in this API call, and add him/her to the current list as well as in the old list(s). No subscriber credit will be deducted in this case as no new subscriber is added.
•Make a new entry for every subscriber even if it already exists. You may need this option if you have 2 personalization data for a subscriber. For e.g. the same subscriber with 2 residential addresses, or the same subscriber with 2 policies. Subscriber credit will be deducted for every new entry.

When all the subscribers are added to your list, you will receive an email notification from Juvlon with a detailed summary of how many subscribers were added, how many subscribers were inactivated and why, etc.

Subscribers with email addresses as follows will be inactivated:

•Invalid email address (e.g. “john.gmail.com”, or “john@gmail”)
•Already Inactivated email address – if the subscriber was already present in your account and was inactive for any reason (for e.g., the subscriber has unsubscribed from receiving emails from you), then the new subscriber added to the list will also be inactivated.
•Email address with a bad domain – Juvlon does not send out emails to certain bad domains (for e.g. spamtrap domains, temporary domains etc.). If you send out an email to any such domain, your entire sending might get considered as spamming by spamming agencies like Spamhaus and UriBl resulting in soft bounces or in your emails reaching your subscribers’ Spam / Junk folders. Hence, Juvlon performs checks as soon as you add subscribers, and if the domain of any email address matches any of these bad domains, then the subscriber is inactivated.

Similarly, any invalid mobile number provided will also be inactivated so that no attempt to send an SMS message to these numbers will be made.

Please note that a subscriber whose email address has been inactivated (due to any of the reasons described above) will continue to receive SMS messages from Juvlon as long as his mobile number is valid. Similarly, a subscriber inactivated for an invalid mobile number will continue to receive emails from Juvlon if his email address is active.
