Hi all,

Is there a way to apply filter based on "Industry" for Constituents (list) and retrieve the records including the selected filter field 'Industry' in our response. Any work around suggestions is appreciated.

I am able to fetch “Industry” attribute using single constituent endpoint. Is it possible to get that attribute for constituent list endpoint also?

    There is no way to apply filter on industry with the list constituent API endpoint, nor can you get the industry property from this endpoint.

    There are a few properties of a constituent that is returned by the SINGLE get constituent endpoint that doesn't exist in the list constituent endpoint (i.e. no valid address, request no email, etc), there's nothing you can do about this other than IdeaBank and get vote on it.

    However, there is a workaround: Query API. You can use Query API to filter on industry and output industry. You can check out this post of mine to get started
