After dealing with Exact Target‘s XML api for their email list management system, I decided to package up a few functions into a class. Check out python-exacttarget on my GitHub page.
Nice library, but unfortunately here’s what I was told earlier this week by ExactTarget: “The XML API has been put in maintenance mode meaning no new functionality will be added to it.” Officially they will only be improving the SOAP API, which is a bag of hurt trying to use from Python.
That is unfortunate. Hopefully they will continue to support the XML api, even if they are no longer updating it. In general ExactTarget doesn’t seem too developer friendly. The lack of a sandbox or test accounts really put me over the edge.
