Question

Can we insert an activity in Timeline with API and associate it to a CTA?

Hi everyone, 

I’m trying to insert an activity to the Timeline and have it be linked to a specific CTA. In my use case, these are onboarding CTAs that are linked to the opportunity through the GS opportunity object, and the users are logging their events automatically from Google Calendar to SFDC. 

Right now they need to manually log them again in Gainsight if they want the link to the CTA, and the OOTB sync does not link it to the CTA, but I can easily find them with a rule and call the API to post these since I have the link to the CTA through the “Cockpit Associated Records” object. 

My only problem is that when I call the Timeline API I can only pass “Company” or “Relationship” as a Context Name value. From what I see in the reports, the value should be “CTA” and the Context Id should be the CTA GSID, both of which I have. 

So is there a way to actually do this or is this an improvement request for the API?

If this is not currently possible, I would definitely upvote the Idea post for it.

Best,
