Hi All,

I am using this code to create a column using the API:

mutation{
                create_column(board_id: xxx, title: "Name", description: "", column_type: name) {
                    id
                    title
                    description
                }
            }

but it gives me this error:

{
  "data": {
    "create_column": null
  },
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "This column type is not supported yet in the API",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 1,
          "column": 10
        }
      ],
      "path": [
        "create_column"
      ],
      "extensions": {
        "code": "InvalidColumnTypeException",
        "status_code": 200,
        "error_data": {
          "column_id": null,
          "actual_type": "name"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

i checked over here all the column types Other types and name is listed. why is it then returning an error and what can i do to fix it?

I thought that there could only be one column of type name as that’s basically the item name. Where would another item name even go if allowed?


thanks you are right
