Bulk Export using CSV

[nathan]

Hi,

I'm trying to export a bunch of contacts using API. The only method I can see is listBatchSubscribe which actually does the purpose. But I'm looking for a solution where I can export these contacts using CSV in a PUT request to the API, as iContact or ConstantContact does. An array of 10k to 15k email addresses sent in the API request does not look glamorous. Does Mailchimp API allow exporting using CSV ?

Thanks,

Nathan

listBatchSubscribe() does pretty much the opposite of what you're asking for.

The list Export API is what you want:
http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/export/1.0/

You may also want to generally review the two Sync related articles here:
http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/api/how-to/sync-you-to-mailchimp.php
http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/api/how-to/sync-mailchimp-to-you.php

Lastly, the API doesn't (and is not going to) do CSV for anything.
