$client->imports

Every method in this namespace: its signature, its parameters, what it returns and an example.

Methods

Bring an old mailbox across, straight from its mail server or from a Google Takeout, .mbox, .eml, .zip or .tgz export, with progress and a list of what did not come through.

`imports->list`

List one page of mailbox imports

threads:readPages through results

Signature

list(    ?string $addressId = null,    ?int $limit = null,    ?string $cursor = null,    ?string $apiKey = null,): Page

Returns one page of the imports in the workspace, newest first. Nothing is dropped from the history, so following nextCursor while hasMore is true reaches the very first import, and imports->listAll and imports->iterate do that walk for you. Each carries its status, the bytes read so far out of the total, and running counts of messages seen, imported, skipped as duplicates, left out by your options and not imported.

A key limited to particular addresses sees only imports into those addresses.

Parameters

addressIdstring: Only imports into this address.
limitint: Rows per page, a whole number from 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.
cursorstring: The nextCursor from the previous page, an import id. One that names no import this key can see is a 400 invalid_cursor.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

A Page of import arrays, with items, hasMore and nextCursor.

Example

$page = $client->imports->list(addressId: 'addr_5d1c9e3a7b2f4e60a8c1d3b9', limit: 10); foreach ($page as $import) {    echo $import['id'], ' ', $import['status'], ': ', $import['counts']['imported'], ' imported, ', $import['counts']['duplicate'], ' duplicates', PHP_EOL;}

Notes

A GET is retried automatically on network failure and on 408, 429, 500, 502, 503 and 504 responses, up to the client's maxRetries.

`imports->listAll`

Collect every mailbox import into one array

threads:readPages through results

Signature

listAll(    ?string $addressId = null,    ?int $limit = null,    ?string $cursor = null,    ?string $apiKey = null,): array

Follows nextCursor from page to page and returns every import in the workspace, newest first, narrowed to one address when addressId: is given. A key limited to particular addresses sees only imports into those addresses.

Parameters

addressIdstring: Only imports into this address.
limitint: Page size per request, from 1 to 100, defaulting to 25 on the server.
cursorstring: An import id to start after, skipping everything newer.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for every page of this walk.

Returns

A list of import arrays holding every import across all pages.

Example

$imports = $client->imports->listAll(); $imported = array_sum(array_map(static fn(array $import): int => (int) $import['counts']['imported'], $imports)); echo $imported, ' messages imported across ', count($imports), ' imports', PHP_EOL;

Notes

A failure on any page throws out of the whole call, and none of the pages already read are returned.

`imports->iterate`

Stream mailbox imports one at a time

threads:readPages through results

Signature

iterate(    ?string $addressId = null,    ?int $limit = null,    ?string $cursor = null,    ?string $apiKey = null,): Generator

Returns a Generator that yields imports one at a time, newest first, and requests the next page only once the current one is used up. Breaking out of the foreach stops the requests.

Parameters

addressIdstring: Only imports into this address.
limitint: Page size per request, from 1 to 100, defaulting to 25 on the server.
cursorstring: An import id to start after, skipping everything newer.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for every page of this walk.

Returns

A Generator that yields one import array per step.

Example

foreach ($client->imports->iterate(addressId: 'addr_5d1c9e3a7b2f4e60a8c1d3b9') as $import) {    if ($import['status'] === 'failed') {        echo $import['id'], ' failed: ', $import['lastError'], PHP_EOL;    }}

Notes

The generator is lazy, so an abandoned loop costs only the pages you consumed.

`imports->get`

Read one mailbox import

threads:read

Signature

get(string $id, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Returns one import with its status, byte progress and counts. Poll it while status is queued or running. It settles on completed, failed or cancelled.

An import from a live mailbox has source set to imap or microsoft and carries remote, with the folders done out of the total and why it waits, and children, the contacts and calendar imports that came with it. Such an import can also wait: parked carries on by itself at remote.resumeAt, and needs-password stays until imports->resume sends a new password. An import from files has source set to file, remote null and no children.

An id from another workspace answers exactly like one that never existed, with 404.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array with id, source, remote, children, addressId, address, status, options, files, formats, chunkBytes, totalBytes, processedBytes, counts, labelsCreated, labelsSkipped, lastError, uploadDeleted, createdAt, startedAt and finishedAt.

Example

$import = $client->imports->get('imp_4f8a2c6e1b9d3a7f5c0e2b84'); while (in_array($import['status'], ['queued', 'running'], true)) {    echo $import['processedBytes'], ' of ', $import['totalBytes'], ' bytes read, ', $import['counts']['imported'], ' messages in', PHP_EOL;     sleep(10);     $import = $client->imports->get($import['id']);} echo $import['status'], ' ', $import['lastError'] ?? '', PHP_EOL;

Notes

lastError is set only when status is failed.

`imports->create`

Create a mailbox import and get its upload plan

threads:write

Signature

create(array $body, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Creates an import into one address of the workspace and returns it with status set to uploading. Each file is uploaded in parts of chunkBytes bytes, $import['files'][$i]['chunks'] of them, through imports->uploadChunk, and imports->start then queues the import.

The import reads Google Takeout archives, .mbox files from Apple Mail, Thunderbird and most desktop apps, .eml files, and .zip or .tgz archives holding any of those, up to 100 GB a file and 50 files an import. Threads, dates and labels come across. Imported mail is quiet: it runs no rules, forwards, notifications, summaries or webhooks.

imports->importFiles does create, upload and start in one call.

Parameters

addressIdstringRequired: The address the mail belongs to. It must be an address this workspace owns and this key may act for.
filesarrayRequired: Each file as an array with name and bytes, its size, 1 to 50 of them, each at most 100 GB.
options.keepInboxbool: Default true: mail that was in the old inbox lands in Inbox with its unread state. False files everything under Archive.
options.includeSpambool: Default false.
options.includeTrashbool: Default false.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array for the import with status set to uploading, chunkBytes and each file's chunks.

Example

$import = $client->imports->create([    'addressId' => 'addr_5d1c9e3a7b2f4e60a8c1d3b9',    'files' => [['name' => 'mailbox.mbox', 'bytes' => filesize('mailbox.mbox')]],    'options' => ['keepInbox' => true, 'includeSpam' => false],]); echo $import['id'], ' takes ', $import['files'][0]['chunks'], ' parts of ', $import['chunkBytes'], ' bytes', PHP_EOL;

Notes

An address with an import already queued or running is 409 already_running.
Not retried automatically.

`imports->uploadState`

See which parts of the upload have arrived

threads:write

Signature

uploadState(string $id, ?string $apiKey = null): array

For each file, the indexes of the parts already stored, so an interrupted upload sends only what is missing. Empty once the import has left the uploading state.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array with received, one sorted list of part indexes per file.

Example

$import = $client->imports->get('imp_4f8a2c6e1b9d3a7f5c0e2b84');$received = $client->imports->uploadState($import['id'])['received'][0] ?? []; for ($chunk = 0; $chunk < $import['files'][0]['chunks']; $chunk++) {    if (!in_array($chunk, $received, true)) {        $part = file_get_contents('mailbox.mbox', false, null, $chunk * $import['chunkBytes'], $import['chunkBytes']);         $client->imports->uploadChunk($import['id'], 0, $chunk, (string) $part);    }} $client->imports->start($import['id']);

CLI: nextmail imports upload-state

`imports->uploadChunk`

Upload one part of an import file

threads:write

Signature

uploadChunk(string $id, int $file, int $chunk, mixed $data, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Stores one part of file file: the bytes from chunk * chunkBytes up to the next part. Every part is exactly chunkBytes long except the last, and a part of the wrong length is 400 bad_chunk. Sending a part again replaces it, so a failed part can simply be retried.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
fileintRequired: The file index, in the order given to imports->create.
chunkintRequired: The part index, from 0.
datastring|resource|SplFileInfo|StreamInterfaceRequired: The part as a string of bytes, a stream resource, an SplFileInfo or a PSR-7 stream. All of it is sent, so pass the part alone rather than the whole file.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array echoing file, chunk and the bytes stored.

Example

$import = $client->imports->create([    'addressId' => 'addr_5d1c9e3a7b2f4e60a8c1d3b9',    'files' => [['name' => 'mailbox.mbox', 'bytes' => filesize('mailbox.mbox')]],]); for ($chunk = 0; $chunk < $import['files'][0]['chunks']; $chunk++) {    $part = file_get_contents('mailbox.mbox', false, null, $chunk * $import['chunkBytes'], $import['chunkBytes']);     $stored = $client->imports->uploadChunk($import['id'], 0, $chunk, (string) $part);     echo 'Part ', $stored['chunk'], ': ', $stored['bytes'], ' bytes', PHP_EOL;} $client->imports->start($import['id']);

Notes

Retried automatically on network failure and on 408, 429, 500, 502, 503 and 504 responses, since a repeated part replaces itself.

`imports->start`

Queue an import once its files are uploaded

threads:write

Signature

start(string $id, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Checks that every part of every file has arrived, recognises each file's format and queues the import. A file still missing parts is 412 missing_chunks, and a file that is not an archive or a mailbox is 400 unsupported_file. Calling it on an import that has already left uploading returns it unchanged.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array for the import with status set to queued.

Example

use Nextmail\Exception\ApiException; try {    $import = $client->imports->start('imp_4f8a2c6e1b9d3a7f5c0e2b84');     echo $import['status'], ', read as ', implode(', ', $import['formats']), PHP_EOL;} catch (ApiException $error) {    if ($error->errorCode !== 'missing_chunks') {        throw $error;    }     print_r($client->imports->uploadState('imp_4f8a2c6e1b9d3a7f5c0e2b84')['received']);}

`imports->cancel`

Cancel a mailbox import

threads:write

Signature

cancel(string $id, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Stops an import at its next checkpoint. Mail already imported stays in the mailbox. A finished import is 409 not_cancellable.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array for the import with status set to cancelled.

Example

`imports->listFailures`

List what an import could not bring across

threads:read

Signature

listFailures(string $id, ?int $after = null, ?int $limit = null, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Each message or archive entry that did not come across, with the reason: too-large (over 50 MB), unparseable, no-date, storage-error, unreadable-entry, encrypted-entry or archive-limit. Page with after:, passing the nextCursor of the previous page.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
afterint: The nextCursor of the previous page.
limitint: At most 100, the default.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array with data, a list of failures, and nextCursor, the number to pass as after: for the next page, or null after the last one.

Example

$failures = $client->imports->listFailures('imp_4f8a2c6e1b9d3a7f5c0e2b84', limit: 50); foreach ($failures['data'] as $failure) {    echo $failure['reason'], ': ', $failure['subject'] ?? $failure['source'], PHP_EOL;} if ($failures['nextCursor'] !== null) {    $more = $client->imports->listFailures('imp_4f8a2c6e1b9d3a7f5c0e2b84', after: $failures['nextCursor'], limit: 50);     echo count($more['data']), ' more on the next page', PHP_EOL;}

`imports->deleteUpload`

Delete the files uploaded for an import

threads:write

Signature

deleteUpload(string $id, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Removes the uploaded archive. Mail already imported stays in the mailbox. An import still uploading is cancelled at the same time, and one that is queued or running is 409 still_running.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array for the import with uploadDeleted set to true.

Example

$import = $client->imports->deleteUpload('imp_4f8a2c6e1b9d3a7f5c0e2b84'); echo $import['uploadDeleted'] ? 'The uploaded files are gone' : 'The files are still stored', ', status ', $import['status'], PHP_EOL;

CLI: nextmail imports delete-upload

`imports->importFiles`

Create, upload and start an import in one call

threads:write

Signature

importFiles(array $input, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Creates the import, uploads every file part by part and starts it, reporting progress through onProgress. Pass each file's data as a string of bytes, a stream resource, an SplFileInfo or a PSR-7 stream. Parts are sliced from it, so an SplFileInfo or a seekable stream is read one part at a time and never held in memory whole.

It returns once the import is queued. Poll imports->get to follow it.

Parameters

addressIdstringRequired: The address the mail belongs to.
filesarrayRequired: Each file as an array with name and data. A file whose data is not one of the byte sources above throws an InvalidArgumentException before anything is sent.
optionsarray: keepInbox, includeSpam and includeTrash, as for imports->create.
onProgresscallable: Called after each part with two integers: the bytes uploaded so far and the total.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for every request of this call.

Returns

An array for the import with status set to queued.

Example

$import = $client->imports->importFiles([    'addressId' => 'addr_5d1c9e3a7b2f4e60a8c1d3b9',    'files' => [        ['name' => 'takeout.tgz', 'data' => new \SplFileInfo('takeout.tgz')],        ['name' => 'mailbox.mbox', 'data' => fopen('mailbox.mbox', 'rb')],    ],    'options' => ['keepInbox' => false],    'onProgress' => static function (int $uploaded, int $total): void {        echo $uploaded, ' of ', $total, ' bytes uploaded', PHP_EOL;    },]); echo $import['id'], ' is ', $import['status'], PHP_EOL;

Notes

If a part still fails after its retries, the exception is thrown and the import is left in uploading. imports->uploadState then tells you which parts to send before calling imports->start.

`imports->discoverMailbox`

Find the mail server for an address

threads:write

Signature

discoverMailbox(string $email, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Looks up where the mailbox behind an address lives, so an import can connect to it. It tries the providers Nextmail knows, then who receives mail for the domain, then Mozilla's public list of mail settings, then the domain's own _imaps._tcp record. Nothing is stored and no sign-in is attempted.

server is null when nothing was found: ask for the host and port and pass them to imports->checkMailbox. signIn says what the mailbox takes. app-password and password are what imports->checkMailbox and imports->connectMailbox send. An Outlook.com or Microsoft 365 mailbox answers microsoft, which only the Microsoft sign-in on the Migrations page of the app can open.

Parameters

emailstringRequired: The address of the old mailbox.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array with object set to mailbox_settings, email, provider, signIn, server, source, username, and contacts and calendars, which say whether those can come across too. server is an array with host, port and security, or null. provider, signIn and source take the values of MailboxProviders, MailboxSignIns and MailboxSettingsSources in Nextmail\Constants.

Example

use Nextmail\Constants\MailboxSignIns; $settings = $client->imports->discoverMailbox('ada@gmail.com'); if ($settings['signIn'] === MailboxSignIns::MICROSOFT) {    echo 'Connect this mailbox from the Migrations page of the app', PHP_EOL;} elseif ($settings['server'] === null) {    echo 'Ask for the IMAP host and port of ', $settings['email'], PHP_EOL;} else {    echo $settings['provider'], ' takes ', $settings['signIn'], ' at ', $settings['server']['host'], ':', $settings['server']['port'], PHP_EOL;}

Notes

Something that is not an email address is a 400 mailbox_address_invalid.
Too many lookups in an hour is a 429 mailbox_checks_limited.
A GET is retried automatically on network failure and on 408, 500, 502, 503 and 504 responses, up to the client's maxRetries, and on a 429 only when it carries a Retry-After of a minute or less.

CLI: nextmail imports discover-mailbox

`imports->checkMailbox`

Check a mailbox before importing it

threads:write

Signature

checkMailbox(array $body, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Signs in to the old mailbox over IMAP, lists its folders and counts the messages, then signs out. Nothing is stored, the password is not kept and the old mailbox is not changed. Use it to show what an import would bring before starting one.

Leave host out to have the server looked up from the address, as imports->discoverMailbox does. Only port 993 with TLS, or port 143 with STARTTLS, is accepted. Each person may make 10 sign-in attempts an hour across imports->checkMailbox, imports->connectMailbox and imports->resume, and every refused sign-in reads the same, whatever the reason.

Parameters

emailstringRequired: The address of the old mailbox.
passwordstringRequired: The password of the old mailbox, or an app password where imports->discoverMailbox answers signIn as app-password.
hoststring: The IMAP host, such as imap.example.com. It has to be a public host. Left out, the server is looked up from the address.
portint: 993 or 143, read only with host. Left out, it follows security: 993 for tls and 143 for starttls.
securitystring: tls or starttls, the values of Nextmail\Constants\MailboxSecurities, read only with host. Left out, it follows port, and is tls when both are left out.
usernamestring: The name to sign in with. Left out, it is the username that imports->discoverMailbox answers, usually the address.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array with object set to mailbox_check, provider, the server and username that worked, folders, messages, the total an import would read, and whether contacts and calendars can come across too. folders holds up to 200 arrays with name, role, one of Nextmail\Constants\MailboxFolderRoles, messages and included, which says whether an import with the default options reads the folder.

Example

$check = $client->imports->checkMailbox([    'email' => 'ada@gmail.com',    'password' => (string) getenv('OLD_MAILBOX_PASSWORD'),]); $included = array_filter($check['folders'], static fn(array $folder): bool => $folder['included']); echo $check['messages'], ' messages in ', count($included), ' folders on ', $check['server']['host'], PHP_EOL;

Notes

A sign-in the mail server does not accept is a 400 mailbox_login_failed, with no more detail than that.
No server found for the address is a 400 mailbox_settings_unknown: send host. A host that is not public, or a port other than 993 or 143, is a 400 mailbox_host_not_allowed.
A mailbox that only opens through the Microsoft sign-in is a 400 mailbox_uses_microsoft.
A mail server that does not answer is a 502 mailbox_unreachable, and too many sign-in attempts in an hour is a 429 mailbox_checks_limited.
Spam and bin folders come back with included false, since an import reads them only when asked to.
Not retried automatically.

CLI: nextmail imports check-mailbox

`imports->connectMailbox`

Import a live mailbox

threads:write

Signature

connectMailbox(array $body, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Starts copying an old mailbox into one address, straight from its mail server. It signs in once to check the password, keeps the password sealed until the import finishes and for 30 days at most, and queues the import. Poll imports->get for progress.

The old mailbox is only ever read. Folders become labels, read and starred state come across, and a message the address already holds is skipped, so running an import twice adds nothing. A Gmail mailbox is read from All Mail, with its labels. An import waits by itself when the old provider slows it down, such as Gmail's daily download limit, and carries on from the same folder afterwards: status is parked and remote.resumeAt says when. If the password stops working, status is needs-password until imports->resume sends a new one.

contacts and calendars bring those across too where the provider offers them, which needs contacts:write and calendar:write as well. They arrive as contacts and calendar imports of their own, listed in children. rerunOf names a finished import of the same mailbox, at most 30 days old, so only mail that arrived since is fetched. Leave host out on such a run and it connects to the same server. One import may run into an address at a time.

Parameters

addressIdstringRequired: The address the mail belongs to. It must be an address this workspace owns and this key may act for.
emailstringRequired: The address of the old mailbox.
passwordstringRequired: The password of the old mailbox, or an app password where imports->discoverMailbox answers signIn as app-password.
hoststring: The IMAP host, such as imap.example.com. It has to be a public host. Left out, the server is looked up from the address.
portint: 993 or 143, read only with host. Left out, it follows security: 993 for tls and 143 for starttls.
securitystring: tls or starttls, the values of Nextmail\Constants\MailboxSecurities, read only with host. Left out, it follows port, and is tls when both are left out.
usernamestring: The name to sign in with. Left out, it is the username that imports->discoverMailbox answers, usually the address.
options.keepInboxbool: Default true: mail that was in the old inbox lands in Inbox with its unread state. False files everything under Archive.
options.includeSpambool: Default false.
options.includeTrashbool: Default false.
contactsbool: True brings the address book across too, where the provider offers it. Needs contacts:write.
calendarsbool: True brings the calendars across too, where the provider offers them. Needs calendar:write.
rerunOfstring: The id of a finished import of the same mailbox, at most 30 days old. Only mail that arrived since is fetched.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array for the import with status set to queued, source set to imap, the remote mailbox it reads and the children it started. remote is an array with provider, host, username, foldersTotal, foldersDone, messagesTotal, pauseReason, resumeAt, rerunOf and rerunnable, and each of children an array with id, kind, source, status, imported, skipped and total.

Example

$import = $client->imports->connectMailbox([    'addressId' => 'addr_5d1c9e3a7b2f4e60a8c1d3b9',    'email' => 'ada@gmail.com',    'password' => (string) getenv('OLD_MAILBOX_PASSWORD'),    'contacts' => true,    'calendars' => true,]); echo $import['id'], ' is ', $import['status'], ', reading ', $import['remote']['host'] ?? 'the old mailbox', PHP_EOL; foreach ($import['children'] as $child) {    echo 'The ', $child['kind'], ' come across as ', $child['id'], PHP_EOL;}

Notes

An address with an import already under way is 409 already_running, and an import named in rerunOf that cannot be continued is 409 rerun_not_available.
An address outside the workspace is 404 address_not_found, and one the key may not act for is 403 address_not_allowed.
The sign-in is checked before anything is queued, so it fails as imports->checkMailbox does: 400 mailbox_login_failed, mailbox_settings_unknown, mailbox_host_not_allowed or mailbox_uses_microsoft, 502 mailbox_unreachable and 429 mailbox_checks_limited.
children is filled here and by imports->get. imports->list returns it empty.

`imports->resume`

Resume a waiting mailbox import

threads:write

Signature

resume(string $id, ?array $body = null, ?string $apiKey = null): array

Carries on an import from a live mailbox that is waiting. One with status set to parked is queued again at once, with the id alone. One with status set to needs-password needs the new password, passed in an array as the second argument, which is checked against the old mailbox before the import is queued. It picks up at the folder and message it stopped at.

An import that came from a Microsoft sign-in is resumed by signing in again on the Migrations page of the app.

Parameters

idstringRequired: Import id, imp_ followed by 24 hex characters.
passwordstring: The new password of the old mailbox. Required when status is needs-password.
apiKeystring: Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

An array for the import with status set to queued.

Example

$parked = $client->imports->resume('imp_3f9c2a7b1e4d8f60a5c7b92d'); echo $parked['id'], ' is ', $parked['status'], PHP_EOL; $signedIn = $client->imports->resume('imp_9d2c7b5a06f8d4e1b7a2c9f3', ['password' => (string) getenv('OLD_MAILBOX_PASSWORD')]); echo $signedIn['id'], ' is ', $signedIn['status'], PHP_EOL;

Notes

An import that is not waiting, or that reads uploaded files, is 409 not_resumable.
Leaving password out for an import that needs one is 400 password_required, and a password the mail server does not accept is 400 mailbox_login_failed.
A new password counts towards the 10 sign-in attempts an hour that imports->checkMailbox and imports->connectMailbox share.
A parked import carries on by itself at remote.resumeAt, so calling this only tries sooner.
