Get field value history

client.account.fieldHistory(, , ?): AccountFieldHistoryResponse { data, hasMore, nextCursor }

GET/v1/accounts/{id}/fields/{fieldKey}/history

Returns the value-change history for a single field on a record, newest first. Consecutive identical values are collapsed. History is cursor-paginated: pass nextCursor from the previous response as after to page through older values. Only attribute-backed fields (custom attributes and attribute-backed system fields) have history — column-backed system fields return an error.
