Is there a way to know the eVar’s Expiration date on Dimensions? I’m trying to pull that data point

So evar dimension duration, type and related definitions all lie under Admin, report suites, conversion variables.

Each evar will have all pertinent lifecycle information you want.

It's not specifically mentioned, but I believe that @Mtaatgen is actually trying to retrieve the information all via the API, rather than manually pulling by looking in the Admin panel...

 

On an automated pull of data, this would provide up-to-date information about the dimensions at the time (likely paired with other API calls) so that they can see any updated changes immediately.

That is correct, I'm looking at the response from the API calls

You might try dropping a ticket to Customer Care with the question. They can confirm if this is not possible.

That's odd... I would expect expiry should be there.. they seem to have everything else (even tags)... Have you tested this yet? I wonder if it's just missing from the documentation but is actually avaialble?

 

It seems really strange to not include that field, given how critical it is to understanding the behaviour of the dimension....

Yup, I've tried making the endpoint request and have not received anything in regards to expiration

Ok, then I agree with @RobertBlakeley I think a ticket to Client Care is in order... you might also log this as an Idea/Feature Request... this feels like an oversight.
