I was just about to purchase Sendy or MailWizz, but then I came across Mautic. Yeah!
I’m working on an integration with the S2member WordPress plugin. This allows me to send a notification to my own app upon payment, etc. and I currently already use that functionality for other purposes. S2member also allows users to opt-in to a mailing list and they integrate with MailChimp, etc. automatically, but I’m working on writing my own integration for Mautic. More information about the S2member side is here: [https://s2member.com/kb-article/building-an-api-notification-handler-webhook/](https://s2member.com/kb-article/building-an-api-notification-handler-webhook/)
I’ve got all the fields I need, am ready to send the data over to Mautic, and followed the tutorial here: [http://johnlinhart.com/blog/implementing-mautic-api](http://johnlinhart.com/blog/implementing-mautic-api)
The problem is that this code will run in the background and Oath 1a is asking me to login. Is there a way to do this without logging in? The basic process I want is this:
1. User signs up using S2member and opts-in or not.
2. S2member sends a notification to itself at another URL
3. That URL checks to see if the user that just paid opted-in
4. If the user opted-in then it adds the user to the list on the Mautic site.
I’m pretty sure I’ve found all the API docs I need to add the lead and add the lead to a list, but it’s the authentication where I’m stuck since I’ve never used OAth before. Is there a way to just use the keys?

Thanks. I ended up going with this: [https://medium.com/@jan\_linhart/the-simplest-way-how-to-submit-a-form-data-to-mautic-1454d3afd005#.do3gs63de](https://medium.com/@jan_linhart/the-simplest-way-how-to-submit-a-form-data-to-mautic-1454d3afd005#.do3gs63de)
