How do you Update legalConsentOptions or subscriptionTypeId when updating a contact properties.

[FAko]

            'legalConsentOptions' => array(

                'legitimateInterest' => array(

                  'value' => true,

                  'subscriptionTypeId' => $subscriptionTypeid,

                  'legalBasis' => $legal_basis,

                  'text' => ''

                ),

            ),

Could you guide me on using the communication preference api. crm()->communicationPreference() not working. What methods do we chain for this?.

My class creates $this->api connection and this method handles subscribing an email address (using PHP). Hope this helps.

use HubSpot\Client\CommunicationPreferences\Model\PublicUpdateSubscriptionStatusRequest;
use HubSpot\Client\CommunicationPreferences\ApiException as HubSpotApiException;

    public function subscribeByEmail(string $email, string $subscription_id, string $legal_basis, string $legal_basis_explanation): bool {
        try {
            $public_update_subscription_status_request = new PublicUpdateSubscriptionStatusRequest();

            if (in_array($legal_basis, $public_update_subscription_status_request->getLegalBasisAllowableValues())) {
                $public_update_subscription_status_request->setEmailAddress($email);
                $public_update_subscription_status_request->setLegalBasis($legal_basis);
                $public_update_subscription_status_request->setLegalBasisExplanation($legal_basis_explanation);
                $public_update_subscription_status_request->setSubscriptionId($subscription_id);

                $response = $this->api->communicationPreferences()->statusApi()->subscribe($public_update_subscription_status_request);
                if ($response->getStatus() === 'SUBSCRIBED') {
                    $this->return['success'] = true;
                    $this->return['message'] = '';
                } else {
                    $this->return['success'] = false;
                    $this->return['message'] = "Subscribe returned a status of " . $response->getStatus();
                }
            } else {
                $this->return['success'] = false;
                $this->return['message'] = "Legal basis ({$legal_basis}) is invalid.";
            }
        } catch (HubSpotApiException $e) {
            if ($e->getCode() == 400) {
                if (strpos($e->getMessage(), 'already subscribed') !== false) {
                    $this->return['success'] = true;
                    $this->return['message'] = "Email ({$email}) already subscribed to {$subscription_id}.";
                } elseif (strpos($e->getMessage(), 'cannot be updated because they have unsubscribed') !== false) {
                    $this->return['success'] = false;
                    $this->return['message'] = "Cannot resubscribe ({$email}) to {$subscription_id}.";
                } else {
                    throw new ApiException($e->getMessage(), $e->getCode(), $e->getResponseHeaders(), $e->getResponseBody(), $e);
                }
            } elseif ($e->getCode() == 404 && strpos($e->getMessage(), 'does not exist') !== false) {
                $this->return['success'] = false;
                $this->return['message'] = "Subscription ID {$subscription_id} does not exist.";
            } else {
                throw new ApiException($e->getMessage(), $e->getCode(), $e->getResponseHeaders(), $e->getResponseBody(), $e);
            }
        }
        return $this->return['success'];
    }

Via the API? I think you have to use the Communication Preferences API for this. I don't think there is a way to do them together. Communication Preferences are linked to email address and not contact ID.
