Custom Fields
You can add more information to SPREAD profiles by creating custom fields. These can be filled in different ways and you can upload information to them in PHP.
To do this, use $post_data["data"]["custom_fields"][327] = "value";
327
is a custom field identifier here, find yours at the bottom of this page.
Newsletter Subscription
Newsletter subscriptions require the profile email address.
In SPREAD, each consent has a technical ID that you can customize.
You can retrieve the newsletter and SMS subscriptions with these settings:
