Contacts

Manage the people you send to, create, update, segment, and bulk-import contacts.

contacts are the people you send to. Store them once and address a message by contactId instead of a raw email, or group them with contact groups for segmented sends.

What you can do

  • Manage contacts, create, retrieve, list, update, and remove.
  • Bulk operations, import many contacts at once, and bulk-update status or tags.
  • Engagement, read a contact's engagement history.
  • Export your contacts.

Addressing a contact

Once a contact exists, reference it from the send body instead of an email address:

{
  "to": [{ "contactId": "c0a8011e-0000-4000-8000-000000000001" }],
  "channel": "email",
  "email": { "subject": "Hello", "html": "<p>Hi!</p>" }
}

Shared conventions (auth, status codes, errors, pagination) are in the REST API reference. Per-operation request and response detail is in the sidebar.
