Zoho projects API unable to create subtask with start date
Good morning,
I noticed a bug with the Zoho projects API. When creating a task, I was able to create a task and set the start date and end date. However, when creating the
subtask I was unable to set the start and end date.
Python pseudocode follows:
# Create the root task
post_params = {'authtoken': authtoken,
'name': task_name,
'start_date':
'11-01-2017'
,
'end_date':
'12-01-2017'
,
'person_responsible': assigned_person,
'priority': priority,
'tasklist_id': tasklist,
'description': html_desc
}
# Get Task ID and create task
task_id = str(requests.post(base_url_task,post_params).json()['tasks'][0]['id'])
base_url_subtask = base_url + 'tasks/' + task_id + '/subtasks/'
post_params = {'authtoken': authtoken,
'name': subtask_name,
'start_date': '11-01-2017',
'end_date': '12-01-2017',
'person_responsible': subperson_responsible,
'priority': subpriority,
'description': subhtml_desc
}
response_new = requests.post(base_url_subtask,post_params)
If I comment out the lines with the
start_date and
end_date then this works; however, this works with the line(s) commented out.
PS...The above should be considered pseudocode, as it is not exactly what I am using in my code.
