I would like to maintain an outside of RE list of all constituent-fundraiser assignment.

Can someone suggest how to do this via the sky api?

You can get The fundraisers for a constituent at:

https://developer.sky.blackbaud.com/docs/services/56b76470069a0509c8f1c5b3/operations/ListConstituentFundraiserAssignmentsSingleConstituent/

but that doesn't scale well, if you have many donors and few fundraisers; you can't poll everyone to ask ‘is there any changes to related fundraisers’ without depleting your api quota (due to historical data we have way more constituents than api quota).

The inverse is possible at :

https://developer.sky.blackbaud.com/docs/services/58bdd6c8d7dcde06046081d7/operations/ListFundraiserAssignmentsSingleFundraiser

allowing you to list all constituents assigned to a fundraiser.
but i don't know how to get a list of all fundraisers.

ideally we would want something like

https://developer.sky.blackbaud.com/docs/services/56b76470069a0509c8f1c5b3/operations/ListConstituents

to just poll for updates to any constituent-fundraiser assignment.

Alternatively, these ‘relationships’ should be able to be polled via the relationships endpoint
https://developer.sky.blackbaud.com/docs/services/56b76470069a0509c8f1c5b3/operations/ListConstituentRelationshipsAllConstituents

but they are not listed there :(

    Did you ever find a solution? I'm looking for an endpoint that returns all fundraisers for an account.

    No response from RE, or solution found. - All i can think of is to get a backup of your database and scan that.

    I'm also interested in getting a list of fundraisers from the API - I've voted on some “Ideas” over on the Idea site.

    It looks like from comments from Blackbaud folks over there and on other topics on the board that at one point this was slated for development. Is that still the case?
