Writing

PUT (/api/v2/:collection/:model/:id()

POST (/api/v2/:collection/:model()

Custom fields can be written to along with standard fields when updating or creating a new entity. Custom fields should be submitted as key:value pairs within the ‘custom_fields’ attribute, as returned by:

GET (/api/v2/:collection/:model/:id()

Example Usage:

curl https://YOUR-SUBDOMAIN.administrateapp.com/api/v2/crm/contacts/1
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" -k -u (login):(password) -d
    '{"custom_fields":{"field_2": "greetings dude", "field_5": "my text"}}'
  • statuscode 200

    no error

  • statuscode 400

    type error or invalid choice/multichoice value

  • statuscode 404

    does not exist

On success the status code will be 200, and the complete entity will be returned, with custom fields in the custom_field attribute, as normal. Example response:
