How to add values on custom fields ?

ahnafabir11

I have created a personFields through a post request POST /v1/personFields

It was successfully created. (I checked on person column in website ✅)

When i was trying to add value on this custom field for a specific person through a patch request PATCH /api/v2/persons/{id} i am getting a validation error like this

data: {
success: false,
error: "Validation failed: {custom_field_name}: Parameter '{custom_field_name}' is not allowed for this request",
code: 'ERR_SCHEMA_VALIDATION_FAILED'
}

My json body was like this -

{custom_field_name: 'my value'}

I have tried the v1 api but it was saying method not allowed (error). Am i doing something wrong ?

Use the custom field ID, not the custom field name, as the key in your JSON body. Here's where to find your custom field ID:
