GET /audiences

List audiences

Returns the authenticated user's audiences, newest first, with the JSON:API sort, include, and sparse fields parameters. Requires the contacts:read scope.

Parameters

Name
In
Description
sort query Comma-separated sort fields; prefix a field with - for descending, e.g. sort=-created_at,name. Defaults to newest-first. Only allow-listed fields are accepted; an unsupported sort returns 400.
include query Comma-separated related resources to embed in the response included member (JSON:API compound documents). Example: include=records,webhooks. Nested paths use dot notation, max depth 2. Relationships not declared by the resource, or over-deep paths, return 400.
fields query Per-type sparse fieldsets. Example: fields[domains]=name,status restricts the returned attributes for that type. The type must be present in the document and each field must be a known attribute, otherwise 400 is returned.
page query Cursor-based pagination, e.g. page[cursor]=eyJpZCI6...&page[size]=50. The cursor is an opaque token issued by the API — take it from the response's links.next / links.prev URLs or meta.next_cursor / meta.prev_cursor; never construct one. size defaults to 25 and is silently capped at 100 (out-of-range or non-numeric values fall back to the default). An invalid or expired cursor falls back to the first page; a cursor replayed with a different sort than it was issued under returns 400; unknown page members such as page[number] return 400. Follow links.next until it is null (or meta.has_more is false) to traverse a collection; links.first restarts traversal. Link URLs carry these parameters URL-encoded (page%5Bcursor%5D=...).

DELETE /audiences/{audience}
