    <title>topic Announcement: Deals now support merging in APIs &amp; Integrations</title>
    <link>https://community.hubspot.com/t5/APIs-Integrations/Announcement-Deals-now-support-merging/m-p/304036#M28658</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;What’s happening&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;Deals are central to a CRM. Businesses need to be sure of what the state of their pipeline and closed business is. Deals hold information about completed sales and potential future ones. Because mistakes happen, we are releasing the ability for customers to merge deals together.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;If a customer merges Deal A and Deal B, HubSpot creates a new deal from that merge: Deal C. Deal C now is considered the canonical deal, and it has the combined property value history from both Deal A and Deal B and their associated objects (Contacts, Companies, Tickets, Line items and Engagements). Deals A and B are no longer visible in the app.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;If you make a &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/deals/get_deal" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;GET request for Deal A&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;, the dealId in the response will be Deal C’s dealId, so it’s important not to assume that HubSpot will always return the same dealId as the one you requested.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;If you need to &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/crm-associations/get-associations" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;get associations&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt; for the merged deal, you must use Deal C’s dealId. If you try to get associations using Deal A’s dealId, you will receive an empty response.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;It’s important to note that deal merges through the API are still not supported. They will only be available in the HubSpot app.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;When is this happening?&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;Customers will be able to merge deals starting the week of February 23rd.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
