Accessing call queues from API

Is it possible to get a users call queue list via the API? I can’t seem to find any mention of call queues in the documentation.

Thanks,
David Karn

Accessing call queues from API

Hi @davidkarn

We don’t have an API for getting or setting the call queue, since it’s designed to be set up by a sales person working in HubSpot.

Can you tell me more about why you’d want to get the call queue for a user?

Accessing call queues from API

Hey @davidkarn ,

 

It's not just about 'getting' the call queue, it's about adding to it, creating predefined call queues, etc. 

 

Simple example: A marketing workflow, enrollment critiera: visited 20 pages in last 5 days, opened a marketing email, workflow step: add contact to owners 'Today's Calls' queue.

.... We would do that all day long.

 

Another example: Create Call Queue API -> For each salesperson in team X create  queues call 'Followup Calls', 'First Contact Calls', 'Follow up emails'.

 

As a automation and data integration specialist, I would argue that nearly every piece of functionality available to an end user should be available as an api.

 

Please, Hubspot, adopt an api first development methodology.

 

Most, if not all of your key market competitors have.

Accessing call queues from API

Hey Hubspot-

We want to drive consistent processes through automation.

Queues are way more useful with automation. Marketing automation can’t add a call to a queue when a customer event occurs that triggers a call. The task can be there, but to be able to drop it right into a call back queue… that’s where it’s at.

Queues are awesome. they should absolutely have their own first calls api representation.
