Missing "Created_Time" Field in Zoho CRM API Search Results

Missing "Created_Time" Field in Zoho CRM API Search Results

Hello,

I've noticed that the "Created Time" field is visible in the Zoho Canvas view for my Accounts Module. However, I'm unable to retrieve this field's value via the Zoho CRM API.

Specifically, when using the /search endpoint for the Accounts module, the Created_Time field is not included in the API response, even when I explicitly request it using the fields parameter.

Here is the API call I tried: /search?module=Accounts&criteria=(Account_Type%3Astarts_with%3ACompany)AND(BROKER_ID%3Aequals%3A1)

This also: /search?module=Accounts&criteria=(Account_Type%3Astarts_with%3ACompany)AND(BROKER_ID%3Aequals%3A1)&fields=Created_Time

Could you please clarify why this field might be missing from the search results? Is there perhaps a different API name for this field, or is it not retrievable via the search API endpoint?

Kind regards, Marco
