Info
You can use this endpoint only after your system has been upgraded. Learn more about the updates to the SendGrid Legacy API.
You can export recipients, get all existing exports, or check the export status using the /v3/contactdb/exports and /v3/contactdb/exports/{id} endpoints.
POST/v3/contactdb/exports
Base url: https://api.sendgrid.com (The Twilio SendGrid v3 API)
Use this endpoint to export lists or segments of recipients.
If you would just like to have a link to the exported list sent to your email set the notifications.email option to true in the POST payload.
If you would like to download the list, take the id that is returned and use the "Export Recipients Status" endpoint to get the urls. Once you have the list of URLs, make a GET request to each URL provided to download your CSV file(s).
You specify the segments and or/recipient lists you wish to export by providing the relevant IDs in, respectively, the segment_ids and list_ids fields in the request body.
The lists will be provided in either JSON or CSV files. To specify which of these you would required, set the request body file_type field to json or csv.
You can also specify a maximum file size (in MB). If the export file is larger than this, it will be split into multiple files.
