MailChimp API v3 - Get members by email

Question

I am using MailChimp API v1/v2. In that version, I could get member-info for multiple members by providing their emails to member-info API

Now, I want to upgrade to v3, however, I am unable to find the equivalent API endpoint for member-info in v3. I can't use /batches operation, as I will be calling the API on the fly and will show the response to my users.

Any pointers/suggestions?

Answer 1

There is no way to look up multiple list members with v3 without using the batch API, but you can get each member one by one using this endpoint:

GET /lists/{list_id}/members/{subscriber_hash}

Here's an example using the Gibbon gem:

email_hash = Digest::MD5.hexdigest("[email protected]") 
request = Gibbon::Request.new(api_key:"YOUR API KEY")
member_info = request.lists("YOUR LIST ID").members(email_hash).retrieve

There is also a /search-members endpoint you could use to find your members. http://developer.mailchimp.com/documentation/mailchimp/reference/search-members/#read-get_search_members
