Future Marketo REST API release

[Anonymous]

We are using Marketo REST API V1. (July 2015)

In future is there any schedule plan for next API release (Updated version). If Yes, then when it is planned?

Any pointers will be helpful.

Thanks

Hi Deepali,

During the Summit there was a presentation on the roadmap; Sessions – The Marketing Nation Summit, April 13-15, 2015 – Marketo

Doing a quick Google search I found that Justin Norris​ had a good writeup of upcoming features here The Complete Guide to New Marketo Features Announced at Summit 2015 | Justin Norris | LinkedIn

A quick grab from his article:

• REST APIs: The REST APIs will continue to expand each month. Most recently, the new asset APIs gave programmatic access to create and update email assets in Marketo, and we were told program assets are next up, followed by landing pages. You can now imagine a whole ecosystem of apps that create assets and even entire programs in Marketo!

Hope this helps

Thanks Stijn for the response

We have one more query

As REST APIs are expanded each month, are you going for any monthly intermediate release?. If Yes, then how you notify the Marketo user?

Actually we are working on one of the project for our customer to develop plugin connectors (Integration Adapter), which would enable the end users to quickly integrate cloud and on premise applications. As a part of this project, we are targeting to develop plugin connectors for Marketo and would need API to explore features and build integration flow in the plugin connector.

So as per the current document "http://developers.marketo.com/documentation/rest/ " the latest REST API release is V1 and total supported objects are 

Lead, Activities, Campaign, Lists, Opportunities, Companies, Sales person, Custom Object, Assets, Email Template, Email, Segmentation, Landing Page,

If APIs and expanded/updated monthly, then is it maintain backward compatibility?. Should we go with the current REST API's.

Should you go with the current API?  Of course. There isn't another option. I don't know if there's a published guarantee of no BC breaks anywhere within major version 1 (Kenny would be the one to know) but it's not like you can go back to another stable version, right?

Thanks,

As you said

"REST APIs: The REST APIs will continue to expand each month. Most recently, the new asset APIs gave programmatic access to create and update email assets in Marketo, and we were told program assets are next up, followed by landing pages. You can now imagine a whole ecosystem of apps that create assets and even entire programs in Marketo!"

So for further clarification, since you expand API's every month , are these accessible to the end user?. If Yes, since there is no V2 release as of now.

How are these API's released and accessible to the user, is there any way user (like us) can get the notifications about it?.

Also wanted to know, Is there any possibility to remove/discard/discontinue any API. Since it will break our integration code as we are considering all the current APIs (V1) for integration.

Additional APIs are announced with each quarterly release notification if there are any included, with additional detail on the developer's blog: http://developers.marketo.com/blog/category/platform-updates/ We don't currently have any deprecation plans for any API versions, so upon release of a new version it will not disable the previous one.

No planned release for a v2 at this time.
