Depreciated mergeAndStore Function Help!

Depreciated mergeAndStore Function Help!

Hello,
I have a function designed to create a PDF containing information from the fields in a Deals record. There is a Writer Mail Merge template in WorkDrive that is populated via Deluge code, and a copy of the resulting PDF is then attached to the record.

The function currently works fine except that the *merge and store* function is now flagged as *depreciated* and I am unable to copy any of the depreciated functions to my Sandbox environment for development work.

I had a long and fruitless online chat with Zoho about a month ago, followed by many emails saying they are still working on it, so I thought I'd ask the hive mind instead!

This is the relevant code:

  1. resp = zoho.writer.mergeAndStore(quoteTemplate,dataMap,outputMap,"writer-connection");
  2. docID = ifnull(resp.get("document_id"),"None");
  3. if(docID != "None")
  4. {
  5. // attach document to order record
  6. map1 = Map();
  7. map1.put("Accept","application/vnd.api+json");
  8. resp = invokeurl
  9. [
  10. url :"https://workdrive.zoho.eu/api/v1/download/" + docID
  11. type :GET
  12. headers:map1
  13. connection:"workdriveall"
  14. ];
  15. resp2 = zoho.crm.attachFile("Deals",dealId,resp);


I have tried everything I've found online, including swapping it for zoho.writer.v2.mergeAndStore as this page suggests: https://www.zoho.com/deluge/help/writer/merge-and-store-v2.html

When I try to save the function I get this error:

  1.  Failed to update function Not able to find 'mergeAndStore' function (Line : 232)

Am I missing something, is there anything else I should be updating?
