custom sign-up form

[kevincarbon]

Hello,

Is it possible to create our own custom sign-up form that posts to the same end-point as a CC Sign-up Form created using the form builder? That way we can customize the form more, but still capture sign-ups to the same end-point so that CC can use the emails in Automations, etc..

When we created an inline sign-up form within CC I was hoping to get the full HTML that I could then edit, and just make sure it was posting to the same end-point, but it looks like the inline forms use CC's Universal JS to embed the form. I'm assuming I could decode that and just find the same end-point and post to it the same way but I wanted to get confirmation first before I spend time on it.

I hope that makes sense.

Please see this post for additional context:

Hello kevincarbon,

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.

There isn’t a way to edit the inline and pop-up sign-up forms beyond the customization that is available in the website UI, however, you could utilize our V3 API to build your own custom sign-up form. Below I’m including documentation for our sign_up_form endpoint, which has similar functionality to that of the inline and pop-up forms offered in the website UI.

While our expertise is with our API itself as opposed to its implementation within any particular programming language, we are happy to answer any questions pertaining to Constant Contact’s API endpoints, functionality, and documentation.

Please have a look and let us know if you have any other questions!

Regards,
