Hold it, what, I just do not believe it, BUT, that worked. I used https versus http. It worked, it really, really worked. So, why doesn't the documentation provide this info? Thanks so much for helping me with this or I would have never figured it out.

Okay, I was able to download the RestClient and I entered the url address which contains the contactID of the email to OptIn, enter the login and password and I got the following message in the Body tab window: Error 400: The request contains errors in the common Atom sections, which lie outside <entry> or <Content>, such as <feed>, <id>, <author> or <updated>. This is weird.....

Unfortunately, I am unable to download the RestClient jar file. My virus protection software blocks me from running the file. I did change the field as you suggested to use the actual contact id of the email address that I am trying to perform the Opt-In functionality. It looks like this: postInfo = postInfo & "<id>data:,1904</id>" &vbCrLF The resource that I am performing the PUT with looks like this: https://api.constantcontact.com/ws/customers/username/contacts/1904 I know I am missing something simple. All of the other calls work great, I even use the GET method to get the contact_id of the email address I want to Opt-In.

Okay, so here's what I did using test_100@example.com. I used the POST method to add the email to list 2. That worked successfully. The OptInSource value is "ACTION_BY_CONTACT" I then used the DELETE method to unsubscribe the same email account which put the status of the email to "Do Not Email" which it was suppose to do. I then try to use the PUT method to perform the Contact Opt-In step which I used your code changing the UN value to the customer's username. I get the following error: Error 409: The request contains errors in the common Atom sections, which lie outside or , such as , , or

I have an email with the status "Do Not Mail". I am using the following to build my post info: postInfo = "<entry xmlns=""http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"">" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<title type=""text""></title>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<updated>" & date &"</updated>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<author></author>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<id>data:,none</id>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<summary type=""text"">Contact</summary>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<content type=""application/vnd.ctct+xml"">" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<Contact xmlns=""http://ws.constantcontact.com/ns/1.0/"">" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<OptInSource>ACTION_BY_CONTACT</OptInSource>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<ContactLists>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "<ContactList id=""http://api.constantcontact.com/ws/customers/UN/lists/1""></ContactList>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "</ContactLists>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "</Contact>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "</content>" &vbCrLF postInfo = postInfo & "</entry>" &vbCrLF My connstring is using this format: http://api.constantcontact.com/ws/customers/UN/contacts/9999 its actually using https versus http and 9999 would be the actual contact_id and Method is PUT When I run it, I get the following error: Error 409: The request contains errors in the common Atom sections, which lie outside or , such as , , or . Am I missing something in building my post that is causing this error?

Nice, so I figured out how to do the Delete; however, it requires me to get the Contact ID of the contact I need to delete. Is there a call that I can make if all I know is the person's email address to get the Contact ID?

Is there a sample of an ASP call to opt-Out an email from a contact list?
