Pulling specific field data from Marketo to a database

[Prakash_Mohanda]

I am trying to extract data from lead within marketo but only specific fields and not all the fields in the lead. In the API documentation i see ways to pull entire lead records based on lead ID or other filter criteria.

There is also a describe function that gives you field names but not field IDs. How do i get field IDs ?

I am using fiddler to build API calls . for example i am able to get Activity IDs and extract specific kind of activities. How do i extract data for specific fields for all leads ?

Do i event need Field IDs or the field names that come out a describe are good enough to pull the data?

You use the field names.

Also, Fiddler is a great tool but not for mocking your own requests. You should be using Postman (perhaps in concert with Fiddler).
