Identify field activities on both Custom and Lead objects

Hi team, hope you are doing well.

I would like to know which may be the best way to identify which are the field updated more frequent on both a custom object and lead object.

I assume that for Lead object it may be the original api activities (https://developers.marketo.com/rest-api/lead-database/activities/) using the data value changes.

Is there any something similar for the custom objects?

Thanks-

No, you can’t trace Data Value Changes in this way for COs.

 

You’d need to separately send (for example) a Custom Activity when you make a net change to a CO field. Alternately, you can download all COs every day and run a diff, but this would miss intra-day changes.

Hi @sanfordwhiteman thanks for the response with the details. So looks like we would need to implement our Data Value Changes ourself if we want to trace them.

That’s right. You’d need to keep track of the delta each time, which in turn means you need to track it at the source (or some intermediate database).
