Hi,

We have three different subscriptions that users can subscribe to / unsubscribe from. But even if they unsubscribed from all of them, they are not “opted out”.  
I found this endpoint [https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/email/update\_status](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/email/update_status) to update the status, but is it possible to opt out an email in the new API ([2026-03 API reference - HubSpot docs](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/overview))

I am aware of /communication-preferences/v3/unsubscribe but it’s unsubscribing a single one but not doing opt\_out

Hi, @BrianBrinch 👋 To confirm, you are not missing an option. The first [endpoint](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/email/update_status) you linked to is the correct one for your goal. There is not a v3 version of this specific endpoint.

Additionally, I agree, the “legacy” designation is confusing at times. In this case, the [Update email subscription status for an email address](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/email/update_status) endpoint continues to be supported and is not flagged for deprecation.

Have fun building! — Jaycee
