Hi everyone, is anyone else experiencing an issue with the API returning null values for dates associated with a Deal stage or Contact lifecycle stage?

I've had a script running for weeks which gets all the populated dates for, say, a Deal's stages. But over the last couple of weeks it has started returning 'None' for all the stage properties.

API request:

def search_deal(self, deal_id: str):
    response = self.hubspot_client.crm.deals.basic_api.get_by_id(
        deal_id,
        properties=[
            "amount",
            "createAt",
            "dealname",
            "description",
            "dealtype",
            "deal_source",
            "dealstage",
            "hs_lastmodifieddate",
            "hs_deal_stage_probability",
            "likelihood_to_convert",
            "industry",
            "core_service",
            "hs_object_source_user_id",
            "pipeline",
            "hs_date_entered_158499566",
            "hs_date_entered_appointmentscheduled",
            "hs_date_entered_qualifiedtobuy",
            "hs_date_entered_decisionmakerboughtin",
            "hs_date_entered_contractsent",
            "hs_date_entered_177934022",
            "hs_date_entered_closedlost",
        ]
    ).to_dict()
    return response

For example, if I create a Test Deal just now, when I use the Deal ID to get the details, I get this back. The created and last modified dates are present but all other stages are empty. As I say, it's been working fine until recently
