SendGrid API Returns "{List} does not exist"

I'm trying to add an email address to a SendGrid list, which is the only list that exists on my account. I can retrieve the list successfully and send email, but I can't add emails to a contact list.

This is my approach (following the example on Email API Reference and authenticating following Authentication API Reference):

<?php
$API_KEY = getenv('SENDGRID_API_KEY'); // Environment variable sourced correctly

$request_url =  "https://api.sendgrid.com/api/newsletter/lists/email/add.json";
$headers = array(
    "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY",
    "ContentType: application/json"
);
$data = array(
    "email" => "[email protected]",
    "name" => 'Stackoverflow'
);
$params = array(
    'api_user'  => $sendgrid_user,
    'api_key'   => $sendgrid_pass,
    'list'      => "TestList",
    'data'      => json_encode($data)
);

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $request_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $params);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, true);
$resp = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

print_r($resp);

The output of the below code is:

{
    "error": "TestList does not exist"
}

I know TestList exists because I also tried List all lists [GET] and that shows me this:

{
    "lists": [
        {
            "id": XXXXXX,
            "name": "TestList",
            "recipient_count": 1
        }
    ]
}

What am I doing wrong? What do I'm missing?

You're mixing up two different versions of the API. You're authenticating and GETting your lists via v3, but trying to add to v2.

In v3 recipients have a one-to-many relationship with lists, so you'll need to create the recipient, and then add it to your list
