Divi 4.27.8 WordPress Integration - Need API Key and Access Token

Hello,

I am trying to connect the Divi Email Optin module on our WordPress website to our Constant Contact account. We are using Divi version 4.27.8.

Divi requires two fields to connect Constant Contact:

API Key
Access Token

I have previously connected Constant Contact to Divi without using Mashery, and I believe the API Key came from My Applications in the Constant Contact Developer Portal. I also remember going through an authorization step to obtain the Access Token.

I created/opened an application in the current Constant Contact Developer Portal and obtained the API Key. We also authorized the application and obtained a V3 access token. Divi accepted those credentials, but none of our Constant Contact contact lists populated in Divi, so the integration is not functioning.

Can you please tell me the current correct method for obtaining an API Key and Access Token that will work with Divi 4.27.8, specifically so Divi can retrieve our Constant Contact contact lists?

We do not have a legacy Mashery account and do not believe Mashery was used when we previously set this up.

Thank you!

Hello LizG282,

Thank you for reaching out to Constant Contact API Developer Support. My team is here to assist outside software developers with questions about building into Constant Contact's API.

The 3rd party Bloom/Divi integration asks for an API key and access token, and was built using the legacy V2 API, for which API keys can no longer be created.

For over 3 years, we have considered creation of new V2 API Keys to be unsupported, as noted within our V2 API documentation. The Constant Contact Mashery Portal at 'constantcontact.mashery.com' has now been retired & creation of V2 API Keys is no longer possible.

The V2 and V3 APIs are managed through different platforms and are not cross compatible, and V3 keys created through the current developer portal will not work with an integration that was built using V2.

I would recommend either using a different plugin/integration, or contacting the Bloom/Divi support team to see if/when they will be releasing an updated version of their plugin for V3.
