Search activities
POST /v1/activities/search
Search activities with filters via POST — more convenient for complex queries.
Request fields (body)
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
filter |
object | — | Filter by GET /v1/activities/fields fields.Filter syntax. Example: ?filter[ownerTypeId]=2&filter[ownerId]=741 |
limit |
number | 50 |
Number of records (up to 5000) |
offset |
number | 0 |
Skip N records. Together with a date-range filter wider than 14 days it is rejected — see UNSTABLE_OFFSET_PAGINATION in the "Errors" section |
order |
object | — | Sorting: { "deadline": "asc" } |
select |
string[] | — | Field selection: ["id", "subject", "typeId", "completed"] |
autoWindow |
boolean | true |
Split the result set into weekly windows when filtering by a date range wider than 14 days. false disables splitting |

Response fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
data |
array | Array of activities (fields — see Fields) |
meta.total |
number | How many records matched the filter |
meta.hasMore |
boolean | Whether there is a next page |
meta.durationMs |
number | Request duration in milliseconds |
meta.autoWindowed |
boolean | true if the result set was split into time windows |
meta.windowCount |
number | Number of windows. Present with autoWindowed: true |
meta.batchWaves |
number | Number of parallel request waves. Present with autoWindowed: true |
The meta fields sit next to data, not inside it. Pages must be walked by meta.hasMore: a data length equal to limit does not rule out the last page.
Response example
{
"success": true,
"data": [
{
"id": 3894,
"typeId": 1,
"ownerTypeId": 2,
"ownerId": 741,
"subject": "Project meeting",
"responsibleId": 1,
"completed": false,
"deadline": "2026-04-16T11:00:00+00:00",
"createdAt": "2026-04-15T14:30:00+00:00"
}
],
"meta": {
"total": 3,
"hasMore": false,
"durationMs": 336
}
}
With a date-range filter wider than 14 days, meta additionally returns autoWindowed, windowCount, and batchWaves:
{
"success": true,
"data": [ /* ... */ ],
"meta": {
"total": 269,
"hasMore": true,
"autoWindowed": true,
"windowCount": 131,
"batchWaves": 3,
"durationMs": 1139
}
}
Error response example
403 — no scope:
{
"success": false,
"error": {
"code": "SCOPE_DENIED",
"message": "This endpoint requires 'crm' scope"
}
}
Errors
| HTTP | Code | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | UNSTABLE_OFFSET_PAGINATION |
offset greater than zero together with a date-range filter wider than 14 days. Two different retrieval algorithms produce inconsistent results, so the request is rejected. Take everything in a single request with limit up to 5000, or pass autoWindow: false with sorting by id, or split the date range into parts yourself |
| 403 | SCOPE_DENIED |
The API key lacks the crm scope |
| 401 | TOKEN_MISSING |
The API key has no configured tokens |

Known specifics
Time-window splitting. A date-range filter wider than 14 days is automatically split into weekly windows executed in parallel waves, so the result set bypasses the ceiling of 5000 records per call. meta then returns autoWindowed: true, the number of windows windowCount, and the number of waves batchWaves. The autoWindow: false parameter disables splitting. While splitting is active, an offset greater than zero is rejected with UNSTABLE_OFFSET_PAGINATION.
Fields for grouping and aggregation: typeId, ownerTypeId, responsibleId, authorId, editorId, completed, status, direction, providerId, providerTypeId. Used in POST /v1/activities/aggregate (see Aggregate).
