Announcements announcements

  • API Name Restrictions for Custom Activity Attributes: API Names for Custom Activity Attributes created via the API or UI may now only contain alphanumeric characters and underscores, and must begin with an alphanumeric character.

  • Static List Size Limits for Get Lead Activities and Get Lead Changes: Beginning September 30, 2026, calls to the Get Lead Activities or Get Lead Changes endpoints which include the listId parameter will fail with a 1003 Error Code (indicating that the target static list has too many records) if the target lists contain 10,000 or more leads. Consult the Migration Guide for additional information.

  • REST API ‘access_token’ Parameter Deprecation: The access_token query parameter used to authenticate Marketo REST API calls has been deprecated as of August 31, 2026. All new and existing integrations should authenticate REST API calls using the ‘Authorization’ header, as described here.

  • REST API Campaign Run ID: Under certain circumstances, the Campaign Run ID value of an activity was sometimes returned with incorrect formatting, between two pairs of quotation marks (for example, "campaignRunId": ""102938"").
    As of the August release, this value will always be returned with the correct numerical format ("campaignRunId": 102938).

  • Deprecation of Grab Images from Web: To conform to modern security and privacy best practices, the Grab Images from Web feature will be deprecated as of the October release.
