The SendMessageNL method:

  1. Allows to send a message to the recipients listed in a CSV file
  2. Synchronously executes the following steps:

    1. Scheduling of a sending at the date and time contained in the parameters
    2. Return of a delivery ID to the caller

  3. Asynchronously executes the following steps:

    1. Creation of a group in MailUp in which to gather the recipients that have to be imported
    2. Import to MailUp of the recipients included in the file. Recipients will be imported to the list indicated by the filename (see details)

Method parameters

Parameters listGuid listId can be used together or alternatively, passing one of them as null or empty: in the first case the list is verified using both parameters, otherwise using only the provided parameter.

 

SendMessageNL method

  • Requires the CSV file to be moved to MailUp servers before method is called
  • Manages import and sending for a specific list. Differently from batch FTP imports from a CSV file, this method does not allow to import contacts to different lists. All recipients must be imported in the same list
  • The file containing the recipients must be in CSV format (can also be provided in a compressed format using ZIP compression).The file and its fields must be structured following the guidelines contained in the CSV file description

 

 

SendMessageNL is likely the best option for a fast bulk import and sending but users should be aware of some known limitations

The method returns

Since SendMessageNL starts as an asynchronous task, in some cases a failure may occur after the method call is completed. In this case the failure is notified by means of an alert
