API enhancements for Act-On Contacts

We've recently updated the Act-On Developer API to assist users who are working with Act-On Contacts, our initiative to consolidate contact management into a single, unified contact list.

The API changes include the ability to: 

• Get a list of segments within the All Contacts list (also referred to the Unified Contact List or UCL)
• Create a new segment, including adding tags and assigning a folder
• Update a segment, including changing tags or folder
• Assign contacts to a segment
• Upload a CSV file to the list, and optionally designate it as a segment
• Download contacts belonging to a segment
• Download contact preference segments such as hard bounce, soft bounce, opt out, or spam complaint
• Delete a segment

Existing Contact and List APIs can continue to be used for the All Contacts list as well.
