Create a Content Area

Marketing Cloud has a new model for storing, finding, managing, creating, sharing, and distributing all content-related objects. Access the objects created with the new Content Builder tools using the REST API. Your existing SOAP API integrations only function with the Classic tools in the user interface.

Use the Post method to create a new content area within a Marketing Cloud account.

Ruby

require 'fuelsdk'
myClient = FuelSDK::Client.new {'client' => { 'id' => CLIENTID, 'secret' => SECRET }}
contentarea = FuelSDK::ContentArea.new 
contentarea.authStub = myClient
contentarea.props = {"CustomerKey" => "ExampleContentArea", "Name"=>"ExampleContentArea", "Content"=> "<b>Some HTML Content Goes here</b>"}        
results = contentarea.post
p results

PHP

require('ET_Client.php');
$myclient = new ET_Client();
$contentarea = new ET_ContentArea();
$contentarea->authStub = $myclient;
$contentarea->props = array("CustomerKey" => "ExampleContentArea", "Name"=>"ExampleContentArea", "Content"=> "<b>Some HTML Content Goes here</b>");
$results = $contentarea->post();
print_r($results);

Python

import ET_Client
myClient = ET_Client.ET_Client()
       contentarea = ET_Client.ET_ContentArea()
  contentarea.auth_stub = myClient 
  contentarea.props = {"CustomerKey" : "ExampleContentArea", "Name" : "ExampleContentArea", "Content" : "<b>Some HTML Content Goes here</b>"}
results = contentarea.post()
print results

CSharp

using FuelSDK;
ET_Client myclient = new ET_Client();
ET_ContentArea contentArea = new ET_ContentArea();
contentArea.AuthStub = myclient;
contentArea.Name = "ExampleContentArea";
contentArea.CustomerKey = "ExampleContentArea";
contentArea.Content = "%3Cb%3ESome%20HTML%20Content%20Goes%20here%3C%2Fb%3E";
PostReturn response = contentArea.Post();
Console.WriteLine("Post Status: " + response.Status.ToString());
