Get recently created contacts api, same data problem

byersoy — Tue, 03 Sep 2019 11:10:46 GMT

Hello,

I use "Get recently created contacts" api, but i have a problem 🙂

Use url: https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/lists/all/contacts/recent?hapikey=1111-1111-key-key-1111-111&count=100

Response json have a "has-more": true, "vid-offset": 111111

New Url: https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/lists/all/contacts/recent?hapikey=1111-1111-key-key-1111-111&count=100&vidOffset=111111

But the first data and the second data are the same.

Help me!

Hi, @byersoy.

Happy to clarify.

Unlike the Get all contacts endpoint, the Get recently created contacts and Get recently updated and created contacts endpoints require both the timeOffset and vidOffset parameters to page through results.

If you add the time-offset field value to your second request, it should return the next 100 contacts.

Apologies for the confusion.

Thanks for the answer @IsaacTakushi

I try, example url;

https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/lists/all/contacts/recent?hapikey=11111-11111-11111-11111&count=100&vidOffset=22222&timeOffset=33333

I follow if has-more == true go to next page. But this api pulls all the data. I need them just recently added data.

Hi, @byersoy.

The endpoint you are using is the Get recently created contacts endpoint, so all of the data will be new.

The Get recently updated and created contacts endpoint will return records which have been modified, but you are correct that neither of these endpoints returns only the modified data.

If you only want to receive notifications for changes, the Webhooks API will probably be your best bet. You can subscribe to specific object properties and HubSpot will notify a webhook URL of your choosing whenever an object's value changes.

Hi, @IsaacTakushi

Webhook object list only hubspot has special fields?

I don't see created object. Only have hubspot object.

Hi, @byersoy.

Are you referring to custom properties?

If so, you can create webhook subscriptions to custom properties, but you have to manually enter the internal name and click Create option "[internal property name]".

Hi, @byersoy.

Are you referring to not receiving webhook notifications for contact creation events?

If so, I see your app (ID ending in 1886) is not connected to your production HubSpot account (Hub ID ending in 8713). In order to listen for contact creation events, the app must be connected via OAuth.
