ActiveCampaign – Gotchas

ActiveCampaign lists are always static collections of contacts (rule-based segments are a separate ActiveCampaign resource not exposed here), so object_type is always contacts. record_count reflects active subscribers and is only returned on the list operation, not on a single-list fetch. created_by/updated_by are mapped directly from ActiveCampaign's own created_by/updated_by fields, which were observed as null on every list in testing; population on multi-user accounts has not been verified. folder_id, the favorite/default/system flags, custom_fields, and tags are not available. visibility reflects whether the list is exposed to contacts on public subscription/preference pages, not internal user sharing (ActiveCampaign has no per-user list sharing — every list is visible to all account users); it maps from the list's private flag (private or shared).
