Constant Contact - Create a List

See more Constant Contact Examples

Create a new list using a POST call to the /contact_lists endpoint. Rust

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

let http = chilkat::Http::new();

// Implements the following CURL command:

// curl -X POST \
//   https://api.cc.email/v3/contact_lists \
//   -H 'Accept: application/json' \
//   -H 'Authorization: Bearer {access_token}' \
//   -H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
//   -H 'content-type: application/json' \
//   -d '{
//   "name": "Multiple purchases",
//   "favorite": true,
//   "description": "List of repeat customers"
// }'

// Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
