What is the Activity Type in API for Engagement Program Cast?

Hi There -

Can someone tell me the name of the activity type in the API for Engagement Program Cast? I assume this would be the same name you could use to search for that activity in the activity log but if not, I'd be interested to know that name too. Here's an example:

Isn't it logged as a Send Email tied to the Program?

No, Send Email is a separate activity in the log. And the reason I care is that the Engagement Program Cast has super useful information in the details that isn't present in the Send Email. I can ask Marketo Support but I figured someone like you or Greg or Dan would be better sources.

There's no exposed Activity Type ID for the cast as separate from the send.

You would have to triangulate this (roughly) by aggregating their last stream ID change (which is a separate event) with the send.

Hi Denise,

It is the activities_send_email, this includes emails in nurture programs, email blast, etc. For Sales Insight emails use activities_send_sales_email.

Hi Liz,

Thank you.

I should clarify that it's not me that's actually using the API. I'm asking on behalf of the person who is pulling this data into an analytics tool for me. With that in mind, how would you get specifically to the Engagement Program Cast activity as opposed to the other activities that fall under activities_send_email so as to get to the details I mentioned above?
