Create a List-Based Email Send Workflow
This page contains conceptual and procedural information on creating a list-based email send using the Marketing Cloud SOAP API. You can use this workflow to put together all of the elements in a list-based email send.
A list-based email send campaign takes a previously created email message and sends that message out to list of subscribers who have opted in to receive such emails.
Use the flow chart and sample code as an example of how to create and order the processes necessary for the list-based email campaign.
