API create contact says email is invalid

I have an API to create contacts that works perfectly. I began receiving leads and parse them out to this script. Everything works except the email. I receive an error saying the email is invalid. If I use a dummy email, the script works. Any help is appreciated!

API create contact says email is invalid

I figured it out. the email received was piped to my script. for some reason, hubspot would not recognize the email but would recognize a pieced together email. so, I separated the email parts into two, before the @ and after the @, then pieced the email together in the array: $part1.’@’.$part2 and it works perfectly.

I post this solution for other developers.
