What are the semantics of the pipeline-scoped deal_probability boolean?

API
1

The API documentation states:

Whether deal probability is disabled or enabled for this pipeline
VALUES: 0 or 1

But I can’t find any documentation around what it means for deal_probability to be enabled or disabled for a pipeline. Is this implicit (e.g., if the pipeline has a >=1 deals with a set deal probability) or explicitly configured somehow?

    "id": 1,
    "name": "Pipeline",
    "deal_probability": true, <===== THIS FIELD

Hello, @Duncan_Bryce and welcome to the community! :wave:

The deal probability can be explicitly configured when adding and/or updating a pipeline.

When a pipeline has deal_probability enabled, it’s allowed for deals in the pipeline to be assigned probabilities. Probability is the likelihood of winning a deal and adding its value to your company’s income (source).

Thank you @Helena_Sul!

So, if deal_probability is false, Pipedrive will not allow assignment of deal probabilities? Just stage probabilities?

Hi, @Duncan_Bryce :slight_smile:

Yes, that’s correct.
