# client.ProviderImports

Every method in this namespace: its signature, its parameters, what it returns and an example.

## Methods

Move from Resend, SendGrid, Postmark, Mailgun or Mailchimp: suppressions, audiences, contacts, templates and webhooks come across with one key, with a checklist for domains and API keys.

### `ProviderImports.Inspect`

Look inside an account at another provider before importing

```go
Inspect(ctx context.Context, apiKey string, opts ...openemail.RequestOption) (openemail.Object, error)
```

Reads the first page of every resource with a key from Resend, SendGrid, Postmark, Mailgun or Mailchimp and returns a count for each, with `more` set where a resource runs past its first page. `resources` lists what this key can bring across: what the provider has no such thing for, or the key may not read, is left out. Nothing is stored, and the key is not kept.

`openemail.WithProvider` picks the provider and defaults to `resend`. Resend needs a full-access key, SendGrid a key with read access, Postmark a Server API token, Mailgun a private API key from either region and Mailchimp an API key with its datacenter suffix. A key that can read nothing but sending is 400 `restricted_key`: create one with more access for the import and revoke it afterwards.

Scopes: `settings:write`.

**Parameters**

- `apiKey` (`string`, required): The key from the other provider: a full-access Resend key `re_…`, a SendGrid key `SG.…`, a Postmark Server API token, a Mailgun private API key or a Mailchimp key ending in its datacenter, such as `-us6`.
- `openemail.WithProvider` (`string`): One of `resend`, `sendgrid`, `postmark`, `mailgun` and `mailchimp`. Defaults to `resend`.
- `openemail.WithAPIKey` (`string`): Overrides the client API key for this call only.

**Returns**

An `openemail.Object` with `resources` and `counts` per resource.

**Example**

```go
inventory, err := client.ProviderImports.Inspect(ctx, os.Getenv("SENDGRID_API_KEY"), openemail.WithProvider("sendgrid"))
if err != nil {
	return err
}

fmt.Println(inventory.String("object"))
```

**Notes**

- A key restricted to addresses or domains is refused, since audiences, suppressions and templates belong to the whole workspace.
- Postmark keeps domains and sender signatures behind an Account token, which the import does not take, so they are not in `resources`. Mailchimp has no webhooks for sending events and does not list API keys.

### `ProviderImports.Create`

Import from another provider

```go
Create(ctx context.Context, body openemail.Body, opts ...openemail.RequestOption) (openemail.Object, error)
```

Queues an import from Resend, SendGrid, Postmark, Mailgun or Mailchimp. Suppressions keep their reason, segments and lists become audiences, subscribed contacts arrive with their names, templates arrive as HTML templates with their variables declared, and webhooks are registered switched off because deliveries here are signed differently. Domains and API keys come back as a checklist in the report, since a signing key or a token cannot leave the provider that made it. Resources the provider has no such thing for, or the key cannot read, are left out, and `resources` on the import says what it brings.

The key is held encrypted only while the import runs and is erased when it ends, fails or is cancelled. Running it twice duplicates nothing.

Scopes: `settings:write`.

**Parameters**

- `apiKey` (`string`, required): The key from the other provider, as `Inspect` takes it.
- `provider` (`string`): One of `resend`, `sendgrid`, `postmark`, `mailgun` and `mailchimp`. Defaults to `resend`.
- `resources` (`[]string`, required): Any of `suppressions`, `audiences`, `contacts`, `templates`, `webhooks`, `domains` and `api-keys`.
- `openemail.WithAPIKey` (`string`): Overrides the client API key for this call only.

**Returns**

An `openemail.Object` with `status: queued`.

**Example**

```go
job, err := client.ProviderImports.Create(ctx, openemail.Body{
	"apiKey":    os.Getenv("MAILGUN_API_KEY"),
	"provider":  "mailgun",
	"resources": []string{"suppressions", "audiences", "contacts", "templates", "webhooks", "domains", "api-keys"},
})
if err != nil {
	return err
}

fmt.Println(job.ID(), job.String("status"))
```

**Notes**

- One import runs per workspace at a time; a second is 409 `already_running`.
- Contacts who unsubscribed at the provider are left out and counted in `report.contacts.unsubscribed`.
- SendGrid hands out contacts through an export it prepares first, so the contacts step waits for it before anything arrives.

### `ProviderImports.List`

List one page of imports from sending providers

```go
List(ctx context.Context, opts ...openemail.RequestOption) (*openemail.Page, error)
```

One page of the provider imports in the workspace, newest first, each with its report. Nothing is dropped from the history: follow `NextCursor` while `HasMore` is true to reach the first one, or let `ListAll` and `Iterate` do that walk.

Scopes: `settings:read`.

**Parameters**

- `openemail.WithLimit` (`int`): Rows per page, a whole number from 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.
- `openemail.WithCursor` (`string`): The `NextCursor` from the previous page. One that names no provider import in the workspace is a 400 `invalid_cursor`.
- `openemail.WithAPIKey` (`string`): Overrides the client API key for this call only.

**Returns**

A `*openemail.Page` with `Items`, `HasMore` and `NextCursor`.

**Example**

```go
page, err := client.ProviderImports.List(ctx)
if err != nil {
	return err
}

for _, job := range page.Items {
	fmt.Println(job.String("status"))
}

fmt.Println(page.HasMore, page.NextCursor)
```

### `ProviderImports.ListAll`

Collect every provider import into one slice

```go
ListAll(ctx context.Context, opts ...openemail.RequestOption) ([]openemail.Object, error)
```

Follows `NextCursor` from page to page and returns with every provider import in the workspace, newest first, each with its report.

Scopes: `settings:read`.

**Parameters**

- `openemail.WithLimit` (`int`): Page size per request, from 1 to 100, defaulting to 25 on the server.
- `openemail.WithCursor` (`string`): A provider import id to start after.
- `openemail.WithAPIKey` (`string`): Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.

**Returns**

A `[]openemail.Object` holding every provider import across all pages.

**Example**

```go
jobs, err := client.ProviderImports.ListAll(ctx)
if err != nil {
	return err
}

for _, job := range jobs {
	fmt.Println(job.String("status"))
}
```

**Notes**

- A failure on any page fails the whole call.

### `ProviderImports.Iterate`

Stream provider imports one at a time

```go
Iterate(ctx context.Context, opts ...openemail.RequestOption) *openemail.Iterator
```

Returns an iterator that yields provider imports individually, newest first, and requests the next page only once the current one is drained. Breaking out of the loop stops the requests.

Scopes: `settings:read`.

**Parameters**

- `openemail.WithLimit` (`int`): Page size per request, from 1 to 100, defaulting to 25 on the server.
- `openemail.WithCursor` (`string`): A provider import id to start after.
- `openemail.WithAPIKey` (`string`): Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.

**Returns**

An `*openemail.Iterator` yielding one provider import per step.

**Example**

```go
for job, err := range client.ProviderImports.Iterate(ctx).All() {
	if err != nil {
		return err
	}

	fmt.Println(job.String("status"), job.String("id"))
}
```

**Notes**

- The iterator is lazy, so an abandoned loop costs only the pages you consumed.

### `ProviderImports.Get`

Read one import from a sending provider

```go
Get(ctx context.Context, id string, opts ...openemail.RequestOption) (openemail.Object, error)
```

Status, the step it is on and the report so far. Poll it while `status` is `queued` or `running`.

Scopes: `settings:read`.

**Parameters**

- `id` (`string`, required): Provider import id, `pimp_` followed by 24 hex characters.
- `openemail.WithAPIKey` (`string`): Overrides the client API key for this call only.

**Returns**

An `openemail.Object`.

**Example**

```go
job, err := client.ProviderImports.Get(ctx, "pimp_3f9c2a7b1e4d8f60a5c7b92d")
if err != nil {
	return err
}

fmt.Println(job.String("status"), job.Object("report").Object("contacts").Int("added"))
```

### `ProviderImports.Cancel`

Cancel an import from a sending provider

```go
Cancel(ctx context.Context, id string, opts ...openemail.RequestOption) (openemail.Object, error)
```

Stops the import and erases the provider key. What already came across stays.

Scopes: `settings:write`.

**Parameters**

- `id` (`string`, required): Provider import id, `pimp_` followed by 24 hex characters.
- `openemail.WithAPIKey` (`string`): Overrides the client API key for this call only.

**Returns**

An `openemail.Object` with `status: cancelled`.

**Example**

```go
job, err := client.ProviderImports.Cancel(ctx, "pimp_3f9c2a7b1e4d8f60a5c7b92d")
if err != nil {
	return err
}

fmt.Println(job.String("id"), job.String("status"))
