MailChimp API Error: You must specify a email value (code -100)

[amro]

I wouldn't recommend that until it's fully tested and the doc is fully updated. That aside, the doc for subscribe says you must pass a struct (hash) for the email parameter.

Try something like:

Gibbon::API.lists.subscribe({:id => 'foofoo', :email => {: email => '[email protected]'}})

[amro]

You're using the wrong parameter name, as the error says. I'd need to know what version of Gibbon you're using so I could figure out which API it's hitting.

The current doc on Github is for an unreleased that uses MailChimp API 2.0. If you're using the current release of gibbon see the doc at https://github.com/amro/gibbon/tree/832c4ea36a995330f601f7f3486a5bff2c713442

[ngw]

gem 'gibbon', git: 'git://github.com/amro/gibbon.git'

So I'm getting it directly from github

[ngw]

Unfortunately the gem version doesn't seem to work with the current documentation...

[amro]

Please use the release version of the gem. As I explained, the version on github is unreleased, not fully tested and the documentation has not been fully updated. That's something I hope to have done shortly. Someone has graciously offered to update the tests and is in the middle of doing so. I'll work on the doc soon as well.

[ngw]

Perfect, but right now it fails with uninitialized constant Gibbon::API (NameError). Just oso you know.

[amro]

Thanks for the heads up. My code sample was a little off -- something like this should do it.

Gibbon::API.new(api_key_here).lists.subscribe({:id => 'foofoo', :email => {: email => '[email protected]'}})
