How to use /crm/v3/objects/contacts/batch/read

GLittle9 · ‎Jul 21, 2022

The documentation at https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/contacts does not explain what this information returned from the API call is:

"links": {
"additionalProp1": "string",
"additionalProp2": "string",
"additionalProp3": "string"
}

What are those and how are they used? Rather than answering here, please point me to the webpage that explains them!

@GLittle9 consider running a test api call on your portal and explore the results you get (see a real example below).

The documentation can take you a long way, but then you have to put in the work.

eg.

{
"status": "COMPLETE",
"results": [
{
"id": "88706",
"properties": {
"createdate": "2022-02-25T16:19:07.305Z",
"email": "melanie84@reinhardt.de",
"firstname": "Miroslaw",
"hs_object_id": "88706",
"lastmodifieddate": "2022-06-03T14:14:23.589Z",
"lastname": "Langern"
},
"createdAt": "2022-02-25T16:19:07.305Z",
"updatedAt": "2022-06-03T14:14:23.589Z",
"archived": false
}
],
"startedAt": "2022-07-22T08:13:29.596Z",
"completedAt": "2022-07-22T08:13:29.623Z"
}

Thanks, Martin. That is what I've been doing.

I just think that the documentaion could be much, much better with real samples!

The new API documents do include an example:

But they do not show the call that results in that example!
