$data = array("recipients" => array("list_id" => "205d96e6b4"), "type" => "regular", "settings" => array("subject_line" => "Subject", "title" => "Title", "reply_to" => "test@gmail.com", "from_name" => "Test", "folder_id" => "8888969b77"));
$data = json_encode($data);
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(    
   //Sample url
   CURLOPT_URL => "https://xxx.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/campaigns",
   CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
   CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
   CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "POST",
   CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => $data,
   CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
      "authorization: apikey <your_apikey>"
   ),

$response = curl_exec($curl);
$err = curl_error($curl);

curl_close($curl);

if ($err) {
   $response = $err;
}

Does it mean that I have to use two API, one for sending mail and upon that I will get the campaign id to send content message via the second API that you showed me — jmarkatti, May 13 '19 at 22:33

This simple works by sending mails details via the first API is I posted above. On successful message, The campaign API is retrieved from the above result response which is then used to send message content to mailchip
