How to get the contacts who received an email in the last time frame?

Hi Derek!
You can find contacts who has been sent a campaign in the last week with advanced search.

1. Click Contacts on the left menu.
2. Click the search field, then click “Advanced Search.”
3. The segment builder will appear. Click the conditions dropdown.
4. Click “Actions” > “Has been sent.” And you should be able to add a date range to search.
5. Next, click the value field to select a specific campaign to search for contacts who were sent that campaign. Or, you can choose “Any campaign” to look for all contacts who were sent any campaign.
6. Click the “Search” button.

Sorry, I meant in the API! Do you by chance know how to do it with the API

I have the same problem. I would need to retrieve contacts who are associated to a certain campaign, but there seems to be no proper endpoint in the API for this.

Hi Sanna!

You can use the Campaign Messages API! Here are the steps:
Step 1: Get Recent Campaigns First, fetch campaigns from the last week using the /api/3/campaigns endpoint with date filtering:
Step 2: Get Messages for Each Campaign For each campaign, use the /api/3/messages endpoint to get all sent messages:
Step 3: Extract Contact Information Each message response includes the contact ID. You can then batch fetch contact details using:

You can also use contact activities and the /api/3/contacts/{id}/contactActivities endpoint and filter for email activities, but this requires checking each contact individually, which is less efficient for bulk operations.
