Cordial

Rekomi's Cordial integration upserts every approved affiliate via POST /contacts with identifyBy: ["channels.email.address"] in the request body as the upsert key, plus first/last name and a rekomi_tags attribute. Cordial has no traditional lists; segmentation is by contact attributes.

Connecting

1. Cordial > Account Settings > Account > API. Copy the API key + your account-specific API URL (e.g. https://api.cordial.io/v2).
2. In Rekomi, Integrations > Cordial, paste both, click Connect.

Attribute prerequisite: the contact attributes first_name, last_name, and rekomi_tags must exist in your Cordial account for those values to be stored. Create them in Cordial before connecting; the email always lands either way.

Tags

Cordial has no tag primitive and Rekomi shows no tags input for it. Rekomi writes the built-in Rekomi affiliate marker into a rekomi_tags string attribute, which you can segment on, provided the rekomi_tags attribute exists in your account (see above).

Provider notes

• HTTP Basic with apiKey: (empty password).
• identifyBy travels in the JSON body (array form) and is the upsert key; without it Cordial would create duplicates.
• A 4xx whose body carries CONTACTS_RECORD_EXISTS means the contact already exists, and that's treated as a success, not an error.
• forceSubscribe: true re-subscribes formerly-unsubscribed contacts.
• Account-specific base URL with SSRF allowlist cordial.io family.
• Disconnect deletes the integration row.
