Post Activities on Leads in Bulk (Using Unique Lead Fields)
Posts activities to leads in bulk.
- Specify the lead you want to post an activity to by passing any unique lead field.*
- Pass the field name in the “SearchBy” parameter in the API URL.
- Pass the field value in the “SearchByValue” attribute in the JSON body.
- Specify the activity you want to post to a lead by passing the “ActivityEvent”. You can find them on the Custom Activities & Scores page, under the ‘Code’ column.
- The “ActivityNote”, “ActivityOwnerEmail” and “Activity DateTime” parameters are optional.
- You can also pass custom fields by specifying their “SchemaNames” and “Values” within the “Fields” node.
* Default unique lead fields include “EmailAddress”, “Phone” and “Mobile”. However, you can set your own unique lead fields according to your business requirements. This API accepts all unique lead fields, the defaults and also the ones you set.
Note:
- The supported DateTime format is UTC (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).
- To skip validating dropdown activity fields, pass an additional parameter
"ValidateDropDownOptions" : true
. This is helpful if you’re passing drop-down values stored on Mavis DB.
