Activities

The Activities pipeline can be used to request and retrieve all activities assigned to a particular user. Activities are appointments/tasks/events on a calendar that can be associated with a deal, a lead, a person and an organization. Activities can be of different type (such as call, meeting, lunch or a custom type - see ActivityTypes object) and can be assigned to a particular user. Note that activities can also be created without a specific date/time.

Special characters (except underscore _) and blank spaces are not allowed. It is best to follow a consistent naming scheme for future search to locate the tables.

Notifications

Choose the events for which you’d like to be notified: whether "ERROR ONLY" or "ERROR AND SUCCESS".
