Optional parameters How to use Description
First drilldown &d1=
Used in the request URL
Used to drilldown into the data. This parameter is designed to reflect the functionality of the HubSpot sources reports. For example, when breaking down by sources, d1 could be organic to drill down into organic traffic data.

Note
: Starter plans will not be able to use the &d1= or &d2= drilldown parameters.
Second drilldown &d2=
Used in the request URL
Used to further drill down into the data. Similar to d1, this reflects the functionality of the sources report. For example, if you have d1=organic, d2=hubspot would drill down into data for organic search traffic for the keyword `hubspot`.

Note
: Starter plans will not be able to use the &d1= or &d2= drilldown parameters.
Filter &f=
Used in the request URL.
May be included multiple times.
Filter the returned data to include only the specified breakdown. This parameter can be included multiple times to filter for multiple breakdowns. For example, when breaking down by sources and using d1=organic to drill down into organic search traffic, you can get the data for the specific keywords `hubspot` and `marketing` using f=hubspot&f=marketing.

NOTE: You must include at least 1 filter when the :time_period is monthly, weekly, or daily.
Exclude &e=
Used in the request URL.
May be included multiple times.
Exclude data for the specified breakdown. This parameter can be included multiple times to exclude multiple breakdowns.For example, when breaking down by sources and using d1=referrals to drill down into referral traffic, you can exclude data for referral traffic from 'www.hubspot.com' by using e=www.hubspot.com.
