We are introducing 4 new fields for Leads and Deals

What is being added?

The following fields are being added to Leads and Deals:

• origin - a system-generated value indicating how the entity was created (e.g. Import, API, Manually created). User cannot change this value
• origin_id - a system-generated value which specifies the origin further. User can supply a value in POST payload. In other cases the value is autofilled when applicable (e.g. in case origin is Import, the origin_id is the unique batch id). User cannot change this value
• channel - single option editable value to further specify entity source based on marketing channel. In certain cases this field is autofilled, but it doesn’t restrict users to manipulate it afterwards
• channel_id - text field for users to further specify the channel by themselves. In certain cases this field is autofilled, but it doesn’t restrict users to manipulate it afterwards

All four new fields are included in respective GET, POST and PUT responses. channel and channel_id can be included in respective POST and PUT payloads. User can get list of currently supported values for origin and channel fields from DealFields endpoint
