Contact Us
Provide a simple way for users to contact you through your application.
Prerequisites
Your application must have a contact email address defined in the dashboard settings. This email address is used as the recipient for all user messages submitted through the API.
Process a contact form
Provide a form for the user to submit their message.
html
<form id="contact-form">
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name" required>
<input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email" required>
<textarea name="message" placeholder="Your message" required></textarea>
<button type="submit">Send Message</button>
</form>
Post the form content to the API for processing.
http
POST https://api.backstack.com/app/contact-us
{
"name": "John Doe",
"email": "jdoe@acme-corp.com",
"message": "I have a question about..."
}
An email with the form data is sent to the defined contact email address for processing.
INFO
A successful response does not guarantee that the email was successfully delivered. The API only confirms that the email was accepted for delivery.
