team_log get_events V2 categories

team_log get_events V2 categories

Hello,

is it possible to send several fields in the 'category' parameter of team_log get_events V2 API? It doesn't seem according to the doc however this would be very useful. I've tried separating categories with commas or semicolumns with no success.

Atm, to retrieve only files and sharing events, I retrieve all categories and filter afterwards. Send only these categories in the initial call would be much more efficient.

Making 2 different calls is another possibility but that require to store 2 cursors too for following calls and with several teams in parallel, it's harder to manage.

Thanks!

No, unfortunately get_events endpoint only supports specifying a single category, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.

OK, thanks! Is there a web page to follow these feature requests?

We don't have a separate page for tracking these. I'll be sure to follow up here if/when this is implemented though.

Is there any update on the feature request to get data for more than one category?

@liftbox No, unfortunately I don't have an update on this feature request. This call still only supports specifying one category at a time.

Plus one here. I think there should be a convenient way to filter events by event_type and or category with multiple event_type s
