Can't get Campaign sequences

API Q&A
1

Hello,

I using the REST API to get my campaigns and then create/assign a contact to a specific sequence.

My issue is that I can get my campaigns but I get no sequence from them. My test campaign has an “email confirm sequence” and I’m using this endpoint to retrieve all the campaigns https://api.infusionsoft.com/crm/rest/v1/campaigns

This is the response body I’m getting

{
  "campaigns": [
    {
      "error_message": null,
      "date_created": "2018-03-14T09:43:05.000+0000",
      "name": "Test Campaign",
      "active_contact_count": 0,
      "completed_contact_count": 0,
      "published_status": true,
      "id": 2,
      "published_time_zone": "Europe/London",
      "time_zone": "Europe/London",
      "published_date": "2018-03-26T22:41:26.000+0000"
    }
  ],
  "count": 1,
  "next": "https://api.infusionsoft.com/crm/rest/v1/campaigns/?limit=1000&offset=1&order=id&order_direction=descending&=",
  "previous": "https://api.infusionsoft.com/crm/rest/v1/campaigns/?limit=1000&offset=0&order=id&order_direction=descending&="
}

What am I missing here?

Thanks very much for the help!

Are you using the sequences keyword in your optional_properties parameter?

@John_Borelli nope. I’m just issuing a get to https://api.infusionsoft.com/crm/rest/v1/campaigns with the access token as header.

But I found the problems:

1 - wasn’t using the optional_properties in the request
2 - the sequence was in “draft” status.

After modifying both, I can get the sequences.

Would you please point me to the url where I can find more info about the optional_properties?

Thanks very much for the help!

I just realised that I need to retrieve a specific campaign in order to get its sequences… is that correct?

curl “https://api.infusionsoft.com/crm/rest/v1/campaigns?access_token=xxxx&optional_properties=sequences” → returns no sequence

curl “https://api.infusionsoft.com/crm/rest/v1/campaigns**/2**?access_token=xxxx&optional_properties=sequences” → returns the sequences

Yes, that’s correct. The list information is general (mostly date/time information) and with the id from that you can get more specifics (like sequence information). The campaign url you are using has the optional_properties documented there but the only option at this time is ‘sequences’ (REST is still being developed so possibly more will be added as that continues).
