Error when attempting to add an item to a related list in Contacts
Hi, In our contacts layout we have created a Lookup field called "Trusted" to allow users to link other contacts to main contact. I need to add items to this list for any given contact via the REST API. I've been following the article https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/kaizen-48-related-lists-and-related-records-api but I'm getting an error and I cannot figure out what's wrong.
Here's the (abbreviated) results of getting the metadata information for Contacts based on the article. Note the "Trusted" field we added to contacts is shown.
GET {{api-domain}}/crm/v2/settings/related_lists?module=Contacts
{
"related_lists": [
<REMOVED>
{
"sequence_number": "35",
"display_label": "Trusted",
"api_name": "Trusted",
"module": "Contacts",
"name": "Trusted",
"action": null,
"id": "5027237000000392183",
"href": "Contacts/{ENTITYID}/Trusted",
"type": "custom_lookup"
},
<REMOVED>
]
}
I created a test contact and added some trusted contacts to that via the web UI, and I can retrieve that with no issues as shown in the article via GET {{api-domain}}/crm/v2/Contacts/5027237000001319012/Trusted where 5027237000001319012 is the ID of the test record in my sandbox.
Now, when I attempt to add another trusted contact (5027237000002017001) to my test contact (5027237000001319012) via the REST API, I use the following call:
PUT {{api-domain}}/crm/v2/Contacts/5027237000001319012/Trusted/5027237000002017001
Body = {
"data": [
{}
]
}
However, I get a 400 bad request HTTP status code with the following body:
{
"code": "INVALID_DATA",
"details": {},
"message": "the module name given seems to be invalid",
"status": "error"
}
What am I doing wrong?
