Creating and Sending Email Broadcast

This endpoint allows you to create and send multiple Email messages in a single API request.

Before creating and sending bulk Email messages you need to:

Create a Subscriber List that contains a column which stores the emails of the subscribers.
Once created the subscriber list, copy the unique identifier of the list (“listId”). This id will help you to send the messages to the subscribers that are added in that list.

In the following request body example, we are going to send this message "Welcome to EliPackage! This is a test" for each subscriber contained in the list.

When you create and sending multiple Email messages (Broadcast), the request body contains the following data:

HTTP Request: POST /broadcasts

{
  "deliveryMethod": "EMAIL",
  "campaignName": "Email Broadcast",
  "description": "Sending Broadcast now",
  "listId": 95830,
  "listField": "email",
  "message": "<p>Welcome to EliPackage!</p> <p>This is a test</p>",
  "origin": "[email protected]",
  "scheduleWithoutDate": false,
  "subject": "Email Test"
}
