Example Response

{
   {
       "list_id": "12300452-9e4a-11ec-b208-bdf9196fe06c",
       "name": "Tier2",
       "description": "Tier2 clients",
       "created_at": "2022-03-07T19:09:36Z",
       "updated_at": "2022-09-29T17:46:13Z",
       "favorite": true
   }
}
  • list_id: The response includes the list_id value associated with the new list in UUIDs (Universally Unique IDentifier) format; 8-4-4-4-12 with a total of 36 characters (32 alphanumeric characters and four hyphens).

  • name: The name of the list.

  • favorite: Identifies whether or not the list is a favorite (true or false).

  • created_at: The system generated date and time that the resource was created, in ISO-8601 format.

  • updated_at: The system generated date and time that the resource was last updated, in ISO-8601 format.

    Because this list was updated, the updated_at timestamps differs from the `created_at timestamp.
