Hi folks,  
I’m currently working on a project where I’m pulling all contacts with a list of properties into another data tool.  
To make it more efficent — I’m curious if there’s an API version for listing contacts that supports the addition of a creatdate parameter to only fecth contacts created from a specific date?  
tia!

Hey, @AidyLove 👋 Quick question, have you tried using the [Search API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/search)? For example, you can use the [BETWEEN](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/search#:~:text=Not%20equal%20to-,BETWEEN,-Within%20the%20specified) operator to look at object records within a specific date range. It’s worth looking at the options there, as they offer a bit more customization in filtering your results.

A quick example:

```lia-code-sample
{
 "filterGroups": [
 {
 "filters": [
 {
 "propertyName": "createdAt",
 "operator": "BETWEEN",
 "minValue": "1569958401000",
 "maxValue": "1596230401000"
 }
 ]
 }
 ]
}

```

Have fun building! Jaycee

Amazing, thanks [@Jaycee\_Lewis](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/127074) !  
Definitely worth adding a reference to the search API in the contacts doc, under the Retrieve contacts section: [Accounts Dashboard | HubSpot](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/contacts)
