Just making sure no one has forgotten about this any chance this has showed up on a release schedule in 2018?

Hello! Once you have started an A/B test, it doesn't look like there is a way to cancel the final send (once the winner is determined after 6 or 24 or whatever hours). Am I missing something? I've tried everything.

Any update here? This has been opened for a month (and apparently requested many times before)

Constant Contact Moderators: So how does this work, as this request has been open for months now and is a very basic request your competitors ALL support. Without this feature it is impossible to have a person click a link in an email and move between email lists (for instance, a text and a video version).

It's extremely frustrating that you do not support dynamic links, either through the normal editor or advanced html editor. This makes it impossible to have a customer click a link in the email and move themselves to a different link (I can't even send them back to my site without then forcing them to login, the create an email list change page...this is a terrible experience). Ideally allowing us to create a link in the editor where we can insert a string and a contact variable would be ideal, but simply allowing us to store a link as a custom field and then referencing that field ($Subscriber.custom.CustomField1..2..3, etc) in a <a href> tag in the advanced editor would work.

To follow up on this, is there any behavioral differences between an ACTIVE versus a HIDDEN list..or for the purposes of subscribing contacts to (and moving them between) lists, can this be ignored.

The behavior is fine, i mean it's not ideal but it is what it is...but it would be good to know that on the front end side when uploading a list. Good to know this will be implemented in v3 though, thanks for the tip Jimmy!

This has nothing to do with the UI and everything to do with the APIs. Once I dug around and found out that the APIs will not return a custom_filed unless it follows the naming convention CustomFieldn (n=1-15) this resolved. It's very frustrating that this isn't explicitly called out in the documentation...especially when uploading a contact list on the front end.

Hello - Using, https://api.constantcontact.com/v2/contacts, I'm getting a properly formed response, but the custom_fields structure is empty (and there is a (right now literally ONE, which does appear in the UI) custom field associated with this contact).. The contact id is: "id":"1145136430", "job_title":"","company_name":"","home_phone":"","work_phone":"","cell_phone":"","custom_fields":[],"created_date":"2017-08-31T17:54:12.000Z","modified_date":"2017-08-31T18:39:07.000Z","source_details":""}]} Is this by design? I need that custom_field to return as it's my primary key in my databases.

After a bunch of trial and error, I figured it out...for those who might still be using coldfusion (My app is still in the stone age, on coldfusion 8.01)..here's what you need. name = Authorization value = Bearer [TOKEN] *Note: You need a mashery account, API key, and token generated...also replace [APIKEY] with your api_key and [TOKEN] with your token (without square brackets) <!--- Creatr a variable for the URL ---> <!--- API Key for CC, given by CC ---> <cfset api_key = "api_key=[APIKEY]"> <!--- URL for API GET, without API Key ---> <cfset uri = "https://api.constantcontact.com/v2/account/info?"> <!--- Full URI for GET ---> <cfset fullURI= uri & api_key> <!--- Make the Get Request ---> <cfhttp url="#fullURI#" method="GET" charset="utf-8"> <cfhttpparam name="Authorization" type="header" value="Bearer [TOKEN]" /> </cfhttp>

Hello - My app is in coldfusion so there aren't any wrappers to use. I generate a token from the I/O docs and have my api key, but what are you expecting to be passed in the http header? Or am I doing this incorrectly? For example... <cfhttp url="https://api.constantcontact.com/v2/account/info?api_key=adhrawqfpbgpucj78qdg6d7e" result="objGet"> <cfhttpparam type="header" name="username" value="MY CC USERNAME" /> <cfhttpparam type="header" name="token" value="GENERATED TOKEN" /> </cfhttp>

Thanks Caitlin, while I don't think this will change your answer, I'm actually looking to insert the date into the body of the email and not the subject.

I've noticed this is the answer people have been getting since 2013...is this something actually on your enhancement roadmap at this time?

I've only found very old posts on this topic, so I apologize if it's been answered. Is there anyway to have the current date pulled into an email (through the advanced editor). I'm setting up emails that go out daily and I need them to say "Your tip for TODAY'S DATE" Thank you!

I can't seem to find any coldfusion wrappers built for v2 of your api...are they buried somewhere? The link you provided only has php, java, iOS, and c#
