Handling Product Purchases via API calls

API Q&A
1

Hi there,

I have an app that integrates with the IS api in order to maintain consistency between its DB and my client’s IS database. Mostly, it is used to make sure that the app has the latest contact information, but also to check that the users of the app have an active subscription in IS.

I would like to let the user also change/cancel their subscription from the app. Ideally, they would be able to make a selection in the app and then the app would send an API call to IS instructing it to cancel the user’s current subscription and then purchase the new subscription.

I was thinking of handling this with tags, but I’m not sure if there’s a better way. I have already managed to add/remove tags, and update contact information from the app.

Any help would be great.
Thanks

If you raise a tag then you should be able to use an action set to cancel a subscription.

Ah! I didn’t even know about that tool. That will make this orders of magnitude easier. Thank you!
