**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: v4.2.2  
My PHP version is: 7.4.29  
My Database type and version is: 10.6.7-MariaDB-1:10.6.7+maria~bionic

**Your problem**  
My problem is:  
How to generate a link to the Preferences center page for the respective contacts without using the Unsubscribe token?  
I want to use the preferences center page to allow my customers to unsubscribe from certain services on Mautic, but directly through a link to the preferences center page (not through an email).

The normal URL to the preferences center page looks like this:  
`link-to-mautic/email/unsubscribe/62909f8359aaf079578904`  
the token after `...unsubscribe/` is linked in Mautic to a Contact profile, so my idea: I send the email address from the contact to Matuic api, and get this token as a response, which I can append to the URL so that everyone gets their unique preferences page/URL.
