Mail clients usually set up the details of Cc and Bcc for you, so thinking about it in terms of individual emails to be sent can be a bit of an adjustment. Here's a snippet that shows how it's done. See also sparks for an example that will send mail, instead of just printing out JSON.
Replicating mail clients' Cc and Bcc behavior with SparkPost is easier to reason about if you focus on the individual recipients - everyone that gets an email when you click send - and what the message needs to look like for them. Everyone who gets a message must currently have their own Recipient within the Transmission that's sent to SparkPost.
Here's the output of the example linked above, which generates a message with 2 recipients in the To, 2 in the Cc, and 2 in the Bcc. Notice we're setting header_to in each Recipient, and it's always the same. We're also setting the Cc header w/in content, which is also always the same.

{
"address": {
