Because you are sending to a list you will need to include the [[unsubscribe]] (or [[opt_out]] alias) macro with raw_html and raw_plain_text. If you are using raw_html you will also need to include the [[tracking_beacon]] (or [[peek_image]] alias) macro.

Boolean parameters

For the boolean parameters like track_links you can use true, on, or yes for the affirmative, and false, off or no otherwise.

Response

The API will respond with a unique audience import id if successful.
