Research direction

Start with the api_client.api_request call for GET /email/public/v1/events and compare its query-string handling with the working curl request in the issue. Trace how eventType is encoded, then verify that SENT and DELIVERED are accepted by the HubSpot email events endpoint without changing the documented API parameter.

Description

Issue Description

When using the HubSpot API client to query email events, I encountered an error with the eventType parameter format. The API rejects the comma-separated list within curly braces:

response = api_client.api_request({
    "method": "GET",
    "path": "/email/public/v1/events",
    "qs": {
        "eventType": "{SENT,DELIVERED}",
    }
})
print(response.content.decode('utf-8'))

This results in the following error:

{"status":"error","message":"Invalid input JSON on line -1, column -1: Cannot deserialize value of type `com.hubspot.email.events.EventType` from String \"{SENT,DELIVERED}\": not one of the values accepted for Enum class: [DROPPED, UNBOUNCE, STATUSCHANGE, DELIVERED, FORWARD, BOUNCE, REPLY, PRINT, PROCESSED, UNSUBSCRIBED, SUPPRESSED, CLICK_ON_IDENTIFIED_LINK, SENT, SELECTED, SPAMREPORT, OPT_IN_CHANGE, DEFERRED, ERROR, OPEN, MTA_DROPPED, CLICK]","correlationId":"3196b1fe-b2fb-4498-b8f5-afa46570a809"}

Additional Information

https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/reference/api/analytics-and-events/email-analytics#get-email-events

I verified that the API endpoint itself works correctly with the following curl command, which successfully returns results:

curl --request GET --url 'https://api.hubapi.com/email/public/v1/events?eventType={SENT,DELIVERED}'
