Has there been any updates to Hubspot API's to get more Contact's Activities types?

SOLVE

I need to retrieve data shown on Hubspot Contact/Activity screen and import them to our company internal application.  I read an article that was posted April 2020 but I was wondering if any updates to Hubspot's API to retrieve more Activity's types data.  I posted at the end of this article asking this same question.  I wasn't sure if i needed to do a new post to get a response from the Hubspot support team.  Ideally I like to use Hubspot API and avoid using external file export solution or a non-Husbpot API solution.

Hi @CTo 

This all seems still pretty up to date.  There is a lot of work going into it so I would think there will be some updates sooner than later!

@himanshurauthan , if I missed something, feel free to add here 😀

Hi @CTo,

 

Have you tried the web analytics API?

 

You can get all the CRM OBJECT EVENTS ( in your case contact object ). Though this is not the perfect solution to track the ads and all but this has information that you parse and in the events response, you can find the referer details.

 

For fetching the engagements you might try with passing ( Engagements in association ) and you will have id to all engagements of a particular contact.

Hope this helps (if yes, then don't forget to mark it as a solution 😉)

Also you mentioned "There is a lot of work going into it so I would think there will be some updates sooner than later!"

Again thank you for your response.
