Post user with custom field issue

Keertan · 2024-06-18T09:14:35+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I have created a custom field, and I want to assign a value to this custom field while creating a user. How to do this through domo api? Also when assign value to this custom field in UI, I can't see it in the get User api response. Please let me know if anyone has an answer. Below is the curl request for reference. Kindly suggest changes:

curl --location 'https://api.domo.com/v1/users' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Bearer token' --data-raw '{
"id": 38068311,
"email": "test-new3@email.com",
"role": "Privileged",
"name": "test1",
"createdAt": "2024-06-17T08:56:19Z",
"updatedAt": "2024-06-17T09:17:44Z",

}
],
"attributes": {
"customTestAttribute": "test value"
}
}'

Try and pass the attributes in the correct format:

"attributes": [
{"key": "customTestAttribute", "values": ["test value"]}
]

You may need to save a user manually and monitor the network traffic to make sure you're using the correct field ID as it won't always be what's displayed.

I have tried this format as well, still not able to update custom field. In UI I can update the field, but through API, I am not able to get complete user, ie. with custom fields, neither I am able to update it. Below is the curl request.

curl --location --request PUT 'https://api.domo.com/v1/users/319958220' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Bearer Token' --data-raw '{
"email": "test-new6@email.com",
"role": "Privileged",
"name": "test1",
"createdAt": "2024-06-17T08:56:19Z",
"updatedAt": "2024-06-17T09:17:44Z",

],
"attributes": [

"values": [
"test value"
]
}
]
}'
