Create a feautre that creates a promo code
I don't know if the API allows you to create an active promo code, but if it does that would be awesome! I'd love to automate the creation of a promo code for a specific customer. If this isn't possible, it would be helpful just to be able to create a random string that could be put into a custom field. This could be used as a promo code or a password.

Not sure why this was declined, but if it's possible to get a random string into a custom field, that would help us out tremendously. We're looking to use it essentially as a "integration key" creator for partners to use during validation. Possible?

That's exactly what I'm looking for! If the script could enter it into a custom field AND enter it as a promo code in the shopping cart, that would be too awesome! Then you could create a coupon for a specific customer as part of an automated campaign.
If it cannot be entered as a promo code in the shopping cart, it would still be useful to have a random string generator that could place a random string into a custom field to be used as a coupon or a password.

Nice call! I like it. To make sure I understand, you want to be able to generate a promo code that is specific to each contact and expires after it's used... Right?
Kind of like a coupon...?
