Get a List by ID



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".
