I'm trying to adapt https://github.com/Marketo/REST-Sample-Code/blob/master/php/LeadDatabase/Leads/SyncLeads.php for my own needs. I want to be able to update a lead's status from "Registered" to "Attended" using the REST API. (The Marketo Events app does this when someone is checked into an event.)

However, when I try sending something like:

{"input":[{"email":"asdfasdf@qwerqwer.org",
           "membership":{"progressionStatus":"Attended"}}]}

I get back:

{"requestId":"168be#15868ee5bff",
 "result":[{"status":"skipped","reasons":[
     {"code":"1006","message":"Field 'membership' not found"}]}],
 "success":true}

I understand the message just fine -- 'membership' isn't a field, therefore it can't be updated this way. But is there another way to update the progressionStatus using the API?

You need to be looking at that lead's membership of the program - see this method for more information: http://developers.marketo.com/rest-api/endpoint-reference/lead-database-endpoint-reference/#!/Leads/changeLeadProgramStatusUsingPOST

  • The documentation appears to be incomplete -- see `changeLeadProgramStatusRequest`? There's no guidance for what `LeadLookupInputData` should look like. – Blazemonger Nov 16 '16 at 16:51

Try to use this format: 

{
    'status': 'Member',
    'input': [
        {'id': 23},
        {'id': 445}
    ]
}

You have to use the Marketo Lead ID (not email) and you can only specify 1 status value per API call. Max batch size is 300 Lead IDs.
