Updating Opted out of Email-Marketing Communications property of a contact using an API

Developer Support APIs & Integrations

I am trying to update the ‘Opted out of Email-Marketing Communication’ property of a contact which is part of Subscription Status using an API from Postman, but I keep on getting a

READ_ONLY_VALUE error. However, I can change its value directly from HubSpot. Can someone suggest me how to get around this error.

I have written the following payload in body.

{

“properties”: [

{

  "property": "hs\_lead\_status",

  "value": "IN\_PROGRESS"

},

{

  "property": "hs\_email\_optout\_225987316",

  "value": "true"

}]

}

and I am making the api call at the endpoint : https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/contact/createOrUpdate/email/Email/

Hi, @Pritistha_S :waving_hand: Have you tried using the endpoint — Update email subscription status for an email address.

Best,
