PHP Example

This is an example of using the contact_sync call with PHP. You can replicate the same idea in virtually any other programming language. The example shown is using serialize as the output format. You can change that to XML or JSON if you would like.

<?php

// By default, this sample code is designed to get the result 

$url = 'https://api.t2connect.com/v1/';

// here we define the data we are posting in order to perform an update
$data = array(

   'account'      => 'YOUR_URL',

   // replace this with your API Key
    'api_key'      => 'YOUR_API_KEY',

    'api_action'   => 'list_delete',

    // define the type of output you wish to get back
    // possible values:
    // - 'xml'  :      you have to write your own XML parser
    // - 'json' :      data is returned in JSON format and can be decoded with
    //                 json_decode() function (included in PHP since 5.2.0)
    // - 'serialize' : data is returned in a serialized format and can be decoded with
    //                 a native unserialize() function
    'api_output'   => 'serialize',

    // ID of the list you wish to delete
    'id'           => 1,

);

//open connection
$ch = curl_init($url);
$json_data = json_encode($data);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); // set to 0 to eliminate header info from response
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $json_data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type:application/json'));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE); // uncomment if you get no gateway response and are using HTTPS

$response = (string)curl_exec($ch); // execute curl post and store results in $response

if ( !$response ) {
die('Nothing was returned. Do you have a connection to Email Marketing server?');
}
//close connection
curl_close($ch);

// unserializer
$result = unserialize($response);
// JSON decoder
//$result = json_decode($response, true);

// The entire result printed out
echo 'The entire result printed out:<br />';
echo '<pre>';
print_r($result);
echo '</pre>';

// Raw response printed out
echo 'Raw response printed out:<br />';
echo '<pre>';
print_r($response);
echo '</pre>';
