Auth section

The <auth> section is where you enter the authorized user and API authentication tokens that are required to activate XMLDelivery. See API authentication tokens for more details.

The <auth> section is:

• A child of the Contactlab section and is mandatory
• Positioned as the first entry in the <contactlab> section in the XML instructions file

Note:

Access to the Contactsend SOAP API is required for XMLDelivery to work. If you do not have an apiKey, please get in touch with your usual contact at Contactlab, such as your project manager, account manager or Contactlab customer care.

The <auth> section includes the following children:

Child	Type	Description	Use
suid	string	The userKey for the user carrying out the delivery request.	Mandatory
key	string	The apiKey for your company account in Contactsend.	Mandatory

Example:

 <contactlab>
        <auth>
            <suid>userKey</suid>
            <key>apiKey</key>
        </auth>
        <campaign>
