Message Tags and the PoliteMail API

Under SentMessages, there are three POST API calls that refer to Message Tags:

  • GetByTag
  • AddTag
  • RemoveTag

Below is some sample code to show how these might be used.  Please note that the code below is written specifically for version 5+ of PoliteMail, but the API calls are also available on version 4.972.

varmyHeaders=newHeaders();
myHeaders.append("Authorization", "Basic REPLACE WITH API KEY");
myHeaders.append("Content-Type", "application/json");

varraw=JSON.stringify({
"tag": "Tag Group Test: test"
});

varrequestOptions= {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: myHeaders,
  body: raw,
  redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("/api/odata/SentMessages/GetByTag", requestOptions)
  .then(response=>response.text())
  .then(result=>console.log(result))
  .catch(error=>console.log('error', error));

varraw=JSON.stringify({
"tag": "Tag Group3: Hello Email",
"messageGuid": "B56C9A4E-3D1F-4060-A384-01D6D3F27DE6",
"groupId": 2
});

varrequestOptions= {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: myHeaders,
  body: raw,
  redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("/api/odata/SentMessages/AddTag", requestOptions)
  .then(response=>response.text())
  .then(result=>console.log(result))
  .catch(error=>console.log('error', error));

varraw=JSON.stringify({
"tag": "Tag Group3: dasdahtr"
});

varrequestOptions= {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: myHeaders,
  body: raw,
  redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("/api/odata/SentMessages(12)/RemoveTag", requestOptions)
  .then(response=>response.text())
  .then(result=>console.log(result))
  .catch(error=>console.log('error', error));
