Create mailing lists

To create a mailing list, you use the NewslettersManager class. First, you initialize the NewslettersManager. To get all mailing lists, you call GetMailingLists. Then, you check whether an item with the specified ID exists. Finally, you call the CreateMailingList method, set all properties, and save the changes.

The following code creates a mailing list with specific Id, Title, DefaultFromName, DefaultReplyToEmail, and DefaultSubjectwith the Native API:

1. C#

    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using Telerik.Sitefinity.Modules.Newsletters;
    using Telerik.Sitefinity.Newsletters.Model;
    
    namespace Telerik.Sitefinity.Documentation.CodeSnippets.DevGuide.SitefinityEssentials.Modules.EmailCampaigns
    {
        public partial class EmailCampaignsSnippets
        {
            public static void CreateMailingList(Guid id, string title, string fromName, string replyToEmail, string subject)
            {
                NewslettersManager manager = NewslettersManager.GetManager();
                MailingList mailingList = manager.GetMailingLists().Where(l => l.Id == id).SingleOrDefault();
    
                if (mailingList == null)
                {
                    mailingList = manager.CreateMailingList(id);
                    mailingList.Title = title;
                    mailingList.DefaultFromName = fromName;
                    mailingList.DefaultReplyToEmail = replyToEmail;
                    mailingList.DefaultSubject = subject;
                    manager.SaveChanges();
                }
            }
        }
    }
