REST api - Update email and status subscriber into AllSubscribers

Question

I am studing the api call to insert/update (upsert) one or more subscribers both in a dedicated data extension and AllSubscribers at the same time.

I found this api calls: - https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.mc-apis.meta/mc-apis/createContacts.htm (for insert) - https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.mc-apis.meta/mc-apis/updateContacts.htm (for update)

I can insert or update records in both structure but I can't update the status and email information on AllSubscribers.

Have you any idea? Exist other calls?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

To access All Subscribers you need to use the SOAP API as described on the API overview in the documentation.

• Create a subscriber

• Update a subscriber

Answer 2

If you are planning to update a large buch of subscribers, you can also post a csv file into your BU's FTP and import it into both 'AllSubscribers' and your DataExtension using a scheduled/file drop automation.
