I'd like to add a "currentState" metadata field to boards to track "alpha, beta, launched" so I can query that in custom components to add visual indicators.
I'm fine with setting this value via API - no need for a text entry field in admin.
keithkelly We can not add the custom fields ourself. But you can ask Khoros support to add it. Most propbably, PS will be required to add the custom field and make it editable using API or manually.
Yeah, similar to my other answer, just ping Support and they can usually turn around new attributes in a day or two. You can let them know type of field, if it needs a character limit, etc.
Here's some helpful info they provided on one of our tickets to get you started as not sure any of this is truly documented anywhere in Atlas/API Docs:
V1 check field: https://devdocportal.khoros.com/t5/Community-API-v1-Reference/bd-p/restv1docs?section=commv1&leaf-id=Board.settings#Board.settings
V1 set field: same as above but add "/set?value=desired_value_here"
V2 check field: https://developer.khoros.com/khoroscommunitydevdocs/reference/update-a-board
V2: set field: "/set?value=desired_value_here"
A quick example would be https://community.stage.upwork.com/restapi/vc/boards/id/Agencies/settings/name/custom.event_language to check the field and https://community.stage.upwork.com/restapi/vc/boards/id/Agencies/settings/name/custom.event_language/set?value=desired_value_here to set the value.
ah great news as well. This makes sense. Thanks for the links.
Note: the upwork links are behind a .htaccess login.
Ah my bad, I didn't even realize the examples had our site's domain in them 😂
np thanks again!
For what it's worth, you can do the same type of thing with nearly all elements of Khoros (adding in custom fields). We actually just launched 30 minutes ago a private note tracker on every topic/reply in Community so that our moderators can leave notes there when it makes sense, vs previously being limited to only leaving them on the user profile.
