API Overview

api-overview page anchor

Lists are static collections of Marketing Campaigns contacts. This API allows you to interact with the list objects themselves. To add contacts to a list, you must use the Contacts API.

You can also manage your lists using the Contacts menu in the Marketing Campaigns UI(link takes you to an external page). For more information about lists and best practices for building them, see "Building your Contact List".


GET/v3/marketing/lists/{id}

Base url: https://api.sendgrid.com (The Twilio SendGrid v3 API)

This endpoint returns data about a specific list. Setting the optional parameter contact_sample=true returns the contact_sample in the response body. Up to 50 of the most recent contacts uploaded or attached to a list will be returned. The full contact count is also returned.
