Retrieve the SubscriberStatusEvent

This page contains information about retrieving the SubscriberStatusEvent object.

Retrieving this information gives you identification information about the subscriber, the current subscription status, and the reason why the subscriber unsubscribed, if any. This call only logs events at the All Subscriber list level.

Use the sample code below as a model to construct your own API call.

The CurrentStatus and PreviousStatus properties accept the following values:

• Normal
• Held
• Unsub

The Retrieve call returns an arrary of ObjectExtensions when the ObjectType of the RetrieveRequest is set to SubscriberStatusEvent. If the Retrieve request returns more than 2500 objects, the status of the Retrieve call is MoreDataAvailable, indicating that you need to retrieve the rest of the results in batches using the ContinueRequest property on a RetrieveRequest.

If the unsubscribe occurs due to a Feedback loop, the reason is Spam complaint from <domain>
