Hi,
I created a custom field in my pipedrive account with a custom id (i.e. “myid”). How can I get a person by this field using your API?
https://developers.pipedrive.com/docs/api/v1/#!/Persons/get_persons_search
Can you give my an example?
Thank you
Hi @sowinski
As far as I know, it’s not possible to search by specific custom field id at the moment, but you can search by all values if searchable custom field matches these types: text, large text, numerical, monetary, autocomplete, phone, and address (more about search here https://support.pipedrive.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000269125-Search-Finding-what-you-need#C3)
For example, if you have a custom field, Home address
And one of your contacts has value, for example, Tallinn, Estonia
You should be able to find it by making this request
Thank you. Would be a handy feature in the feature to implement this.
I solved it by downloading everything from pipedrive to the client and do the search on the client side.
I hope you will not block our account because we will need to run this script frequently. Is there any limit?
Yes, there is a rate limit based on your plan (https://pipedrive.readme.io/docs/core-api-concepts-rate-limiting) + there is a limit on requests (https://pipedrive.readme.io/docs/core-api-concepts-rate-limiting#section-daily-api-fair-usage-limit-for-postput-endpoints)
