Hello experts,

I know it is a basic question but could I have help from you please?


I am trying to create an item via API.

It works if I copy the sample GraphQL code from the guide exactly (changed the board_id and group_id), but it doesn’t work if I change the column_values.

What is missing my code? Thank you so much in advance.


for example, it works:


mutation {   create_item (board_id: xxx, group_id: "xxx", item_name: "new item", column_values: "{\\"date\\":\\"2023-05-25\\"}") {     id   } }

it does not work:


mutation {   create_item (board_id: 7772434243, group_id: "new_group29179", item_name: "new item", column_values: "{\\"text8__1\\":\\"システム\\"}") {     id   } }

it also does not:


mutation {   create_item (board_id: xxx, group_id: "xxx", item_name: "new item", column_values: "text8__1":"システム") {     id   } }

*column ‘text8__1’ is a custom column. I made sure the same issue with other default values.


Referred: Items


What’s that in the mutation?

Date is recognized label so it works. Please check

Thanks having a look.

‘text8__1’ is the name of custom column (text) I created. I intended to write it the same as the date…

Hello there @shiorly and welcome to the community!


What error message are you getting?


What is a “custom column” in this case? How did you create that column?


Looking forward to hearing from you!


Cheers,

Matias

Hi Matias, thank you for your comment.



What error message are you getting?



I tried it on an API integration service (IBM’s tool that can offer the custom API process generation) and it responded nothing when it did not work, so I will check the result with other environment.



What is a “custom column” in this case? How did you create that column?



I created it by clicking a + button on column header.

Hey there @shiorly.


The 3rd line you shared with us, has some incorrect escaping, so I can see why it wouldn’t work.



As for the 2nd one I recreated the code in a board and it worked fine for me.


mutation {

  create_item(

    board_id: 7860139053

    item_name: "new item"

    column_values: "{\\"text__1\\":\\"システム\\"}"

  ) {

    id

  }

}

I know it is a basic thing but my guess would be that your “board_id”, “group_id” or “column_id” is incorrect!
