Note: This is one of multiple posts about issues I’ve discovered while working depth with the Pipedrive API. A description of the use case and collection of all issues can be found at pipedrive-api-notes.md · GitHub.
enum
fields seem to generally have integer values and string labels. Notable exceptions in the
activities
resource:
-
done
has boolean IDs (true
andfalse
) -
busy_flag
– same thing -
type
has string values (e.g."call"
,"meeting"
)
Consequently, this needs manual remapping when scripting around field types.
What I’d expect instead is for these fields to behave the same way as all other enum
fields and have int
IDs and text
/varchar
labels.
(Note: busy_flag
and done
would deserve to be boolean
types, but that is a separate issue.)
