creating campaign from python mailchimp api

Question

I am using mailchimp3 python api

from mailchimp3 import MailChimp

client = MailChimp(mc_api='', mc_user='')

client.campaigns.create(data={})

I want to create a campaign but unable to understand what the 'data' should be in this case. Also, I want to put HTML in the email so any help in implementing this would be great. Thanks in advance
