I'd like to automate the gathering of unsubscribe and cleaned email accounts for a given campaign.
In the API playground, I see all the methods available on the List entity.
Unsubscribes
I see that it's in the LIST API
GET reports/xxxxxx/unsubscribed
Cleaned
Where can I find the cleaned/bounced emails from a list or campaign? I know I can see the count of bounced in various places, but I'd like to find the email addresses that actually bounced, and the first and last names of the list member. Basically I'd like the API same as the 'export cleaned to csv' available on the website.
How can I use the MailChimp 3.0 API to do this?

Cleaned contacts don't count toward audience limits and cannot be archived. Cleaned contacts can be deleted but we recommend you keep them in your audience to avoid bounces.
If you've manually unsubscribed contacts from your email marketing, you can resubscribe them. Contacts who unsubscribe themselves will need to resubscribe through your signup form.
You can do
GET lists/list_id/members?status=unsubscribed
to get unsubscribed users
GET lists/list_id/members?status=cleaned
to get cleaned/bounced users

For the bounced emails in a specific campaign you need to do this:
GET /3.0/reports/campaign_id/email-activity
and iterate though all recipients in the campaign, manually locating actions with type=bounce.
{
"email_address": "[email protected]",
"activity": [
{
"action": "bounce",
"type": "hard",
"timestamp": "2019-04-08T00:00:00+00:00"
}
]
},
Unfortunately MailChimp has very bad performance on this endpoint, approximately 25 seconds to return activity for a campaign with 500 recipients.
