Discount codes obtained from the API in real time
In addition to code stacks, Mailocator allows you to read discount codes in real time from an external API, display them in a thank you page and pass them to an email tool.
Conditions for connecting to an external API
API must be accessible without authentication (username and password authentication methods are not supported).
After the call, data is expected in JSON format, which contains the code and optionally additional text - for example, the amount of the discount.
