So we have a big number of custom fields that get updated every night. Mailchimp allowed us to update all of our contacts with a single api call that was a bulk update. Now it looks like we will have to make 1 call per field for every customer? And deal with a 5 request per second rate limit? All discussions of this say use V1 for bulk updates. Are we OK using V1 for a new integration? I would prefer to be current, but these issues are blockers.
Answering my own question. Support said use V1. Can I just say ActiveCampaign really needs to support bulk updates with V3, or stop telling people it’s the most current version?
I just have to say that we’re using v1 for everything we do. If v1 goes away, we’ll be in big trouble. So I sincerely hope that v1 is not going to be obsoleted!
I found they have finally added an endpoint for bulk import, I have tried it and it seems to work for adding new contacts and syncing existing contacts
