Update List Filter Email Event API Error

Developer Support APIs & Integrations
1

Hi,
I’m trying to create/update the filters of a Dynamic List. It is a simple filter: Get all Contacts who Received and specific Email.
I tried both adding the filters in the creation and updating an existing List. The Update body for example:

{

“filterBranch”: {

“filterBranchType”: “OR”,

“filters”: [],

“filterBranches”: [

{

“filterBranchType”: “AND”,

“filters”: [

{

“level”: “EMAIL_API_CAMPAIGN”,

“appId”: “XXXXX”,

“emailId”: “186899289459”,

“filterType”: “EMAIL_EVENT”,

“operator”: “RECEIVED”

}

],“filterBranches”: []

}

]

}

}
I can see how the Id changes in the UI, but it looks like it is not matching the EmailId and it is using the Id as a name:

The Email exists:

AlejandroGarcia_1-1741180238576.png

I’ve tried all Levels:

“EMAIL_API_CAMPAIGN”, “EMAIL_API_CAMPAIGN_GROUP”, “HUBSPOT_CAMPAIGN” and I get the same error.
Is there any other setting I should change?
Thanks!

Hey, @AlejandroGarcia :waving_hand: Thanks for your post. One thing that helps me sometimes is to try to reverse-engineer the List filters in-app first.

  • Create a List with the same filter options
  • Verify it populates as expected
  • Grab the List ILS ID
  • Make a request to the GET List by ID Endpoint and include the `includeFilters=true` param
    https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/lists/{some_list_ILS_ID}?includeFilters=true​
  • Compare the filter set-up JSON between what you stared with and what is contained in the response

It might not be the exact solution, but it may get you to the next step.

Hey @Jaycee_Lewis , that worked! Tried to do it before but didn’t know the ?IncludeFilters=true option.
Thank you!
