Change a Lead’s Score via the REST API

February 19, 2015 | by Murta Manzur

Let’s say you want to change a lead’s score in Marketo using the APIs. This is possible to do with the REST API using the Create/Update Lead endpoint. Below is a code sample in Ruby that shows how to make this call.

require 'rest_client'
require 'json'

#Build request URL
#Replace AAA-BBB-CCC with your Marketo instance
marketo_instance = "https://AAA-BBB-CCC.mktorest.com" 
endpoint = "/rest/v1/leads.json"
#Replace with your access token
auth_token =  "?access_token=" + "ac756f7a-d54d-41ac-8c3c-f2d2a39ee325:ab" 
request_url = marketo_instance + endpoint + auth_token

#Build request body
data = { "action" => "updateOnly", "input" => [ { "email" => "example@email.com", "leadScore" => "30" } ] } 

#Make request
response = RestClient.post request_url, data.to_json, :content_type => :json, :accept => :json

#Returns Marketo API response
puts response

require 'rest_client'

require 'json'

#Build request URL

#Replace AAA-BBB-CCC with your Marketo instance

marketo_instance = "https://AAA-BBB-CCC.mktorest.com"

endpoint = "/rest/v1/leads.json"

#Replace with your access token

auth_token = "?access_token=" + "ac756f7a-d54d-41ac-8c3c-f2d2a39ee325:ab"

request_url = marketo_instance + endpoint + auth_token

#Build request body

data = { "action" => "updateOnly", "input" => [ { "email" => "example@email.com", "leadScore" => "30" } ] }

#Make request

response = RestClient.post request_url, data.to_json, :content_type => :json, :accept => :json
