POST (Create) an Email Campaign Activity Schedule

Use this method to send an email campaign activity to contacts either immediately or on a specific date. To send the email campaign activity immediately, specify 0 for the scheduled_date request property (results return an empty array). To send the email campaign activity on a specific date, specify the date using the scheduled_date request property (results return the scheduled date in an array).

Before you schedule an email campaign activity, you must update the email campaign activity and specify which contacts you want Constant Contact to send the email to. When you make a PUT call to update an email campaign activity, use the contact_list_ids or segment_ids array to add contacts.

You can only schedule email campaign activities that have the primary_email role and are in DRAFT, DONE, or ERROR status. When you schedule an email campaign activity in DONE status, Constant Contact does not send the email campaign activity to contacts that already received it. Constant Contact only sends the email campaign activity to any new contacts in the contact lists or segment you use.
