[ARCHIVED] Rest API Bulk Insert Custom Column Data

[jake_adams]

I've been working through a number of API calls recently and seem to have hit a wall with 'Bulk update column data' and was wondering if anyone might have a suggestion.  For testing purposes, I am using Postman to create the API call.

Parameters:

I then provided the data as raw text:

Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.

Hello Jake,

I was able to successfully call this endpoint in Postman by changing the raw data-type to JSON and using the following format:

[{
    "column_id": example_column_id,
    "user_id": example_student_id,
    "content": example_content
    },
    {
    "column_id": example_column_id,
    "user_id": example_student_id,
    "content: example_content
  }] 

I did not include the column_data: section in the call. The documentation on the endpoint does include it, but I was only able to get a successful update when not including it in the post body.

Additionally, when calling this endpoint in other systems, you'll need to add a content-type: application/json header.

Hope this helps.
