# Overview

The Audience API lets you **build and manage reusable, channel-agnostic contact lists**. An audience is a named list of contacts — a mobile number plus any custom columns (called input variables) — uploaded or entered once and then tagged to one or more campaigns (calling, WhatsApp, etc.) without re-uploading the same data.

* Use **Create Audience** to build a new audience from a file upload and/or a JSON contact list, or to append more contacts to an existing one.
* Use **Update Audience** to rename or describe an audience, or soft-delete it.
* Use **List Audiences** to retrieve the paginated list of audiences in the workspace.
* Use **Audience Summary List** for a lightweight, unpaginated list (for dropdowns/pickers).
* Use **Audience Details** to fetch a single audience's metadata.
* Use **List Audience Contacts** to page through the contacts inside an audience.
* Use **Export Audience Contacts** to download an audience's contacts (and call history) as an Excel file.
* Use **Delete Audience Contacts** to soft-delete one or more contacts by ID.
* Use **Download Audience Template** to download a blank Excel template matching an agent's, an audience's, or a chosen set of columns.
