RedUSers Integration (removed)

Removed on 2026-04-17

The RedUSers reading-permissions proxy was removed from farfalla-integrations on 2026-04-17 via PR #5. This page is kept so that older links and search results still land somewhere useful; there is no live integration to document.

The RedUSers tenant (tenant_id 30) itself is unaffected; this removal only concerns the external permissions-sync proxy, which nothing has been calling for a long time.

Why it was removed​

Three reasons, all true at the same time:

  1. Farfalla stopped calling it. Tenant 30 has been running with custom_scope.enabled = false for an extended period. That flag is the switch that decides whether Farfalla calls this proxy at all, and with it off no traffic has reached the integration in practice.
  2. The partner endpoints are unreachable. Both usershop.redusers.com (cert expired 2025-10-22) and backend.redusers.com (cert expired 2025-11-19) currently serve expired TLS certificates. Even if the switch were flipped back on, the integration would not work without partner-side intervention.
  3. It had been treated as deprecated internally. See the Slack thread below. Removing the code removes a permanent "is this still alive?" question from the Laravel Cloud migration and Oh Dear monitoring work.

Historical note: what the integration used to do​

For future readers who hit this page from a link and want to know what was there: RedUSers' storefront (usershop.redusers.com) exposed a PHP endpoint that returned a customer's purchased SKUs and active subscriptions. The proxy translated that response into Publica.la reading-permissions and cached it for a short window. If a replacement ever needs to be built, the shape of the old endpoint lived at:

GET https://usershop.redusers.com/public/api/premium2.php
    ?email={email}&us={user}&ps={password}

Returning JSON with items[], subscriptions[] and a cache string. This is noted here only as archaeological context. The partner URL has not been accessible since at least late 2025.
