Results
The Show Optout command outputs either the results of the search or a FAILURE message.
SUCCESS
The Show Optout command does not explicitly return a Success code. Instead, it outputs the Task details in plain text format. Use the output_format argument to return the results in an alternate format.
The Task Details include the following:
|
Type Description |
Type of Task to run, and then Description:
|
| Frequency | Once, Daily, Weekly, Monthly |
| Repeat Days | List of Weekdays to repeat, in the shorted three character format separated by '/', for example Sun/Mon/Wed |
| Last Run | Date and Time Task last run if recurring in format mm-dd-yyyy hh:MM:ss AM/PM. If not run previously, then displayed as N/A. |
| Next Run Date | Date to next run Task in format mm-dd-yyyy |
| Next Run Time | Time to next run Task in format hh:MM:ss AM/PM |
FAILURE
A Show Optout command will fail for several reasons, such as if the campaign doesn't exist. The result format is:
FAILURE: [Reason]
