Hello!
I’m trying to move to the latest API, but I can’t find a way to add multiple profiles to a list, like I was able to do with the old “POST /api/v2/list/{list_id}/members“.
What am I missing?
The old endpoint used to accept an array of profiles data and add all the profiles, automatically omitting the ones that already exist in the list.
How can I replicate this behavior with the new endpoints?

Hi
If I’m understanding your use case correctly, the original v2 POST /api/v2/list/{list_id}/members endpoint that you mentioned is the Add Members to a List endpoint. An approximate equivalent for the new v3 API would be the Subscribe Profiles endpoint.
The main difference here is that the v2 endpoint is intended to act similarly to a .CSV import, meaning that profiles added with this endpoint are assumed to have already supplied consent. With the new v3 endpoint, you can still add multiple profiles to a list, but it’s now impacted by double opt-in.
This means that even if you’re moving customers from one list to another, if you have double opt-in enabled, those customers moved to the new list via API will receive a confirmation email.
I hope this helps and thank you for using the Community!

Hi
thanks for your reply! And yes, this helps!
I’ve checked the Subscribe Profiles page, but it provides very basic information. :(
Do you have any idea what the “custom_source” string attribute is about?
And the “subscriptions” array of objects on that page only shows “email” and “phone_number” attributes for the objects. Are we able to add “name”, ‘city”, “zip” and “country” attributes like in V2?
Thanks again for your help!
