API Reference

Email Unsubscribe

Public, no-auth one-click unsubscribe.

Validates the HMAC-signed token (issued at send time) and flips the corresponding row in email_event_subscriptions to OFF.

event_type is also passed as a query param so we can validate that the user clicked the link associated with the right matrix row. If the param doesn’t match the token’s claim we 400 — defends against truncated or substituted links.

Critical for CAN-SPAM / GDPR / RFC 8058 one-click compliance. Returns a tiny HTML page so a click straight from the inbox lands somewhere intelligible; the same endpoint also handles the automated List-Unsubscribe-Post POST that Gmail/Apple Mail fire (we accept both verbs against the same handler — see below).
