Possible to update custom metadata field with API v2 POST call?
Does anyone know if it is possible to update a custom metadata field using the v2 API or is it only possible to do so using the v1 API? In our environment we have a side nav component that is popula...
You should probably stick with the REST V1 call since we don't currently support setting a node setting in REST V2.
For REST V1 calls can do a multipart/form-data request and include your parameters as form parameters:
curl --location --request POST 'http://yourcommuntiy.com/restapi/vc/categories/id/intermingles/settings/name/custom.side_nav/set' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --header 'Li-Api-Session-Key: JO_JDmgXJ5WI8P_2b2bnBXzSsX5-SHCPneB0qLxYttQ.' \ --form 'value={ "json": "string" }'If you are doing the call in a Freemarker endpoint, you could make a call like the following (it's ok to use a query param b/c the code is executing server-side):
<#assign settingPostCall = restBuilder() .version("v1") .method("POST") .path("/categories/id/" + categoryId + "/settings/name/custom.side_nav/set") .queryParam("value", jsonDataString) /> <#assign resp = settingPostCall.call() />I hope that helps!
