MCP Server: Programmatic Contact Management
Use `search_contact_by_email` to look up a full contact profile, including custom fields and segments. This is perfect for scripts that need to validate user data before sending anything. The `create_marketing_contact` function lets your script either create a new record or update an existing one by merging the provided data.
Send Email in Scripts
Dispatch emails using `dispatch_email`. Always ensure that the `from_email` uses a verified sender identity. This is non-negotiable for reliable scripting. You can also retrieve details on specific email templates by running `get_template_details`.
List and Manage Suppression Records
For list hygiene in your pipelines, run `list_bounces` to gather all bounced records. If a record is stale or invalid, you can script its removal using `delete_bounce`. This prevents bad data from hitting the suppression system. Keep an eye on `list_spam_reports` when dealing with user feedback.
