**The opportunity is:** Help me develop a plugin, many hours have passed and I can’t figure it out on my own 🙂

**It is based in:** I need to create a plugin that takes a configuration value (hence it should have it’s own configuration menu) and taking that configuration value, calculate a new token to be replaced within an email. The calculated token content involves requesting an external API passing a JSON with a custom field added to a contact; the response has the token content.

**Remote OK?:** Of course.
