<?php

// The version number (9_5_0) should match version of the Chilkat extension used, omitting the micro-version number.
// For example, if using Chilkat v9.5.0.48, then include as shown here:
include("chilkat_9_5_0.php");

// This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// Use the online tool at https://tools.chilkat.io/Default.cshtml
// to generate the JSON code that creates this JSON:

// {
//     "lists": [
//         {
//             "id": "1511199999"
//         }

//     "confirmed": false,
//     "email_addresses": [
//         {
//             "email_address": "support@chilkatsoft.com"
