Get Goals Aggregate (v1.2)

Changed on

Provides a goals dashboard for an employee: goals matching the selected filter, status filter counts/actions, comment counts, and people shared with or commenting on those goals. This v1.2 endpoint includes milestone-based goals in the returned goal list. Use the optional filter query parameter to control which statuses are included; use status-all when the user asks for a complete dashboard across active, completed, and closed goals. Note: Compared to "Get Goals Aggregate (v1.1)", this version returns goals that contain milestones.
