Getting SFDC Account Level Fields from REST API

When pulling leads from a list via the REST API using either the "Get Multiple Leads by Filter Type" or "Get Multiple Leads by List Id" methods, it seems I'm unable to get some fields.

If I request fields that show up in the Lead record in Marketo under the SFDC Custom Fields tab, I just get null records when pulling certain fields. Any fields that are "Account" level rather than "Contact" level in SF just come back null, even though they have values in the Marketo record. I can pull the value of contact level fields just fine.

Am I doing it wrong? Or is this impossible via these API methods?

It looks like something changed between 2/26 and 2/27. The code I have running to do nightly extracts had all the normal field data when it ran on 2/26 but as of 2/27 I'm no longer getting values for some fields.

@Joe, thanks for the heads up about this. 

For other viewers of this thread, this issue was caused by bug that we will be releasing a fix for this month.

We need to pull SFDCType for the account type too (so not: SFDC Type is Lead/Contact/User, but really the account type). This field is not available. Is the fix not released yet? You mentioned "this month" and it's now next month. Thanks!
