Create Contract API Endpoint Unclear "inputfields" Requirements

Create Contract API Endpoint Unclear "inputfields" Requirements

Hello,

I'm trying to create a Deluge function that accepts inputs from a form in Zoho Creator and creates a barebones contract of a given type. See below for the current code, cleaned of authentication information.
  2. // Fetch form data
  3. // Hidden field
  4. client_name = input.Client_Name;
  5. if(client_name == null || client_name == "")
  6. {
  7. client_name = "Testing Client";
  8. }
  9. // Dropdown field
  10. contract_type = input.Contract_Type;
  11. // Single line field
  12. title = input.Title;
  13. // Multi-line field
  14. description = input.Description;
  15. // Dropdown field
  16. signer_name = input.Signer_Name;
  17. //
  18. // Define the access token and refresh token
  19. accessToken = "ACCESS_TOKEN";
  20. refreshToken = "REFRESH_TOKEN";
  21. //
  22. // Define headers for token refresh request
  23. tokenRefreshHeaders = Map();
  24. tokenRefreshHeaders.put("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
  25. tokenRefreshParameters = Map();
  26. tokenRefreshParameters.put("grant_type","refresh_token");
  27. tokenRefreshParameters.put("client_id","CLIENT_ID");
  28. tokenRefreshParameters.put("client_secret","CLIENT_SECRET");
  29. tokenRefreshParameters.put("refresh_token",refreshToken);
  30. //
  31. // Refresh the access token
  32. response = invokeurl
  33. [
  34. url :"https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/token"
  35. type :POST
  36. parameters:tokenRefreshParameters

  42. }

I'm getting this error when I submit the form, triggering the deluge function:

  1. Error in creating contract: {"Errors":{"ErrorCode":"ZSEC-JSON_PARSE_ERROR","ErrorMessage":"Sorry, unable to complete your action due to an unknown error. Please try again.","APIErrorMessage":"JSON_PARSE_ERROR"}}

The error message is not very helpful, as it does not specify where it has an issue when parsing the JSON. The API documentation does not specify which fields are required for the Create Contract Endpoint, so I'm either left posting here to request more info, or to just tinker with different combinations of fields included and excluded, so I'm posting here. Can anybody help determine exactly which fields I'm missing, using incorrectly, or other issues with the JSON?

I'm surprised this isn't implemented yet (since most other software has this by default). Can you display a simple total at the bottom of all invoice lists? ie: I click in SALES tab, select INVOICES and on that page please show us a simple total? Yes, I realize I can go the long way around and generate reports and select my date options and select the type of invoices etc...but honestly that shouldn't be necessary when just viewing a list of unpaid invoices and how much total is outstanding.
