Thank you again for the help. After updating my code to what you said its the same thing. Here is more information. The entire method is here: and here is the compile script it generaetes when it fails. With the error being "cannot access call" which points back to the line that calls the "createContact" method. Thanks again for all the help hopefully this helps explain my problem.

Thank you again for the help. So to be honest I am not quite sure what you mean by retrofit annotations, if I am using them I am not meaning to, I just used did what I thought I needed based off the examples. The two annotations at the top of my method, the @PATH, and @GET are just there to expose an endpoint to my server I can use for testing. Once I get the test code running I move the pieces I need out to a real implementation. As far as executing the command I edited it to look like this: try {
//line 101 String response = api.getContactService().createContact(contact, OptInSource.ACTION_BY_OWNER).execute();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("error creating contact");
} It still won't compile giving me the same error complaining about the 'createContact' call on line 101: "Referenced method uses a type which is not available: retrofit2.Call<com.constantcontact.v2.Contact>" Also is line 101 how I capture the response from your server? or is there a designated object I should use to get back the response? Thanks Tyler

Ok I was able to get the new 5.0.4 jar and its componets installed and now I have my classes. I'm still struggling a little to find which classes to use to actually make the call to your api. Here is the test method I created can you tell me what I am doing wrong: @Path("/testConstantContact") @GET public String testConstantContact() { CCApi2 api = new CCApi2("your_api_key", "your_access_token"); Contact contact = new Contact(); com.constantcontact.v2.contacts.Address address = new com.constantcontact.v2.contacts.Address(); address.setLine1("123 Test Rd"); address.setLine2(""); address.setCity("Ogden"); address.setCountryCode("US"); address.setPostalCode("84404"); com.constantcontact.v2.contacts.Address[] addresses = new com.constantcontact.v2.contacts.Address[1]; addresses[0] = address; contact.setAddresses(addresses); ContactListMetaData md = new ContactListMetaData(); md.setId("15")); ContactListMetaData[] contactListMetaData = new ContactListMetaData[1]; contactListMetaData[0] = md; contact.setContactLists(contactListMetaData); EmailAddress emailAddress = new EmailAddress(); emailAddress.setEmailAddress("tyler@fabuso.com"); EmailAddress[] emailAddresses = new EmailAddress[1]; emailAddresses[0] = emailAddress; contact.setEmailAddresses(emailAddresses); contact.setFirstName(mi.getFirstName()); contact.setLastName(mi.getLastName()); contact.setHomePhone(mi.getCustomerInfoId().getHomePhone()); api.getContactService().createContact(contact, OptInSource.ACTION_BY_OWNER); } I get the error at the end when calling: api.getContactService().createContact(contact, OptInSource.ACTION_BY_OWNER); The error is: "Referenced method uses a type which is not available: retrofit2.Call<com.constantcontact.v2.Contact>". So are there more classes I'm missing? Or is there some way to send off to the api which I didn't get correctly from the couple examples you did have of other api calls?

Thank you for the help. I didn't manaully install the jar from github, I just added the maven dependancy and let it download itself. Is there a different dependancy to use to get the components jar or should I download and add it manually? Thanks Again, Tyler

So I am new to the java api and after a lot of research I'm still confused on how to do simple things such as creating a contact and adding it to a list. Let me start with the sdk. I added the maven dependancy suggested in the sdk readme. <dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.constantcontact</groupId>
<artifactId>java-sdk</artifactId>
<version>5.0.3</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies> Once downloaded and added to the project the jar only contains the service classes and not the other object classes such as Contact, Address, and its missing all factory classes. See the image below for what the jar contains: I'm not sure what I can do with only the services. When I look at the javadoc it looks like I eventually want to a method in ContactService.java Call<Contact> createContact(@Body Contact contact, @Query("action_by") OptInSource optInSource); but how can I do this without the Contact class or the OptInSource classes? Second issue: maybe this is explained in the example files or something but they seem to be missing for the java sdk. All the other sdks have examples included where are the java ones? .net examples https://github.com/constantcontact/.net-sdk/tree/master/ContactExample ruby examples https://github.com/constantcontact/ruby-sdk/tree/master/examples php examples https://github.com/constantcontact/php-sdk/tree/master/examples iOS examples https://github.com/constantcontact/ios-sdk/tree/master/Examples java examples ? don't exist I found this page in the dev docs: https://developer.constantcontact.com/libraries/sample-code.html All of the languages have links to examples, including java. The issue is when you click on the java examples it takes you to a 404 page. The 2 java links on the above page are: https://github.com/constantcontact/java-sdk/tree/master/AndroidExamples/CreateAndScheduleCampaign https://github.com/constantcontact/java-sdk/tree/master/AndroidExamples/AddOrUpdateContacts If you could give me some guidance on how to get started. Is the jar missing classes I need? Are there java examples anywhere? All I need to do with the api is to create a contact and assign it a listId, if the contact exists then I update the list. That seems like super easy stuff, but I'm struggling to understand the jar and documentation.
