The API is a Web Service through which clients can access and manipulate their accounts. Custom fields and multi-value custom fields can now be incorporated into the API for all contact requests.

You can use this request to create a new customer.
You can view contacts across all lists, create and edit contacts and view contact reports. You can also browse for individual contacts by email address or mobile number.
You can retrieve the properties of a customer with this request. Use the customer’s ID to specify which customer’s details you need to retrieve.
Incorrectly formatted email addresses are automatically excluded from imports. If an email address is imported, but is incorrect or doesn’t exist, the system will soon detect this by tracking the bounce information and updating the contact to ‘Bounced’ status.
You can use this request to update a specific customer’s properties. Use the customer’s ID to specify which customer to update, and submit the properties to update in a table.
When contacts are imported to a list, they’re registered in the system as active (‘On’). When messages are sent to the list, the system automatically updates the state of each contact to determine whether the contact should remain active or be updated to inactive (‘Off’).
