No matter what I try (and I’ve tried including all fields, only field that changes, with and without RowMod=“U” and UD_SysRevID being absent or being the value returned by GetByID) I keep getting a 400 error:
{
"odata.error": {
"code": "",
"message": {
"lang": "en-US",
"value": "The request is invalid."
},
"innererror": {
"message": "patch : An error has occurred.\r\n",
"type": "",
"stacktrace": ""
}
}
}
Not exactly very descriptive in telling me what went wrong!
I’m using the exact format provided in the example, which appears to be the same as an element from “Part” as returned by GetByID. The example appears to list “0” for numeric types and “string” for string types, so I’m not exactly sure if I’m missing a specific value I need to have somewhere - I’m using RowMod=“U” although I have also tried omitting it completely and setting it to the empty string.
With the UpdateExt calls, you should only have to specify the fields you want to update (should). The “required inputs” (company and partnum text boxes) are the keys that will make sure the right thing gets updated. I would try getting any old update to go through and go from there. I was able to update a random part description with the following:
I also received an error message for this SAME exact call saying it needed a PartClass…sometimes it seems the API’s can be finicky. I refreshed the help page and it went through.
Oh wow, you’re right… guess I had stuff it didn’t want. I guess this means that I also don’t need a corresponding call to retrieve the part info first just to set a checkbox. Thanks!
