[user6999594]

Hi,

  I looking for constant contact bidirectional implementation.

  Example: When contact created in constant contact it should send the contact to my application like webhook.

  I saw the some topics in webhook. same like when contact create in CC it should trigger our webhook end point.

Thanks in advance.

Hello user6999594,

Thank you for reaching out to Constant Contact API Developer Support. My team is here to assist outside software developers with questions about building into Constant Contact's API.

For now, the only webhooks we offer are for Partner Accounts (and those are only related to billing for child accounts under a partnership). At this time, we don't offer webhooks for individual accounts' contacts, campaigns, etc., though this has been submitted as a feature request, and so is under consideration for future development.

Constant Contact provides developers with free access to our V3 API endpoints for developers building their own application for integration. You can get started using our API by visiting our documentation here:

https://v3.developer.constantcontact.com/api_guide/getting_started.html

Additionally, you can utilize our API Reference Page to find body schemas & values, as well as test the functionality of our available endpoints to see how they will work once programmed within your application:

https://v3.developer.constantcontact.com/api_reference/index.html

When developing your own application for integration, you’ll need to set it up so that the application calls/retrieves the data of your choosing using the other software and/or API (You will need to check their API documentation or contact their support team for help with how to configure this part), then you will program your application to sort out which variables you need and parse them into the correct format for Constant Contact’s API, at which point you can send that data through to the Constant Contact account via an authenticated connection (or vice versa).

Please have a look and let us know if you have any other questions!

Thank You Courtney E!

   This helps a lot. We have already integrated constant contact with our application, and we are sending contacts from our application to constant contact without any issue.

   Again thanks for considering the other way to sync from constant contact to other applications as a feature request. Waiting for the integration part.

Thanks,

Vinoth
