Missing custom fields in projects

API
1

Hi - I’m trying to create projects via API - it seems that I cannot use custom fields in the payload like with all the other items (person, organization, deal/lead). Will this be implemented in the future?

I just get the error “Unknown field(custom_fields)” when providing custom field data.

Sorry - my fault - I was running against API v1 not v2. Custom fields successfully transfered with api v2.

Hey Thomas! Can You help me understaning how are you handling the customfields..

My Issue:

→ I’m using the PersonAPI (v1) to createContact and whenever there is a custom pipedrive field (person) then it works perfect

→ But when some of our users mistakenly or unknowing add the custom fields (deals, organization etc) then createContactAPI fails ==> *Invalid field(s) in the payload: d342e6808b38dc59c8113ac7b6128062f9602dd5’

→ Without custom fields it is working perfect

 async createContacts(contactsToCreate: ContactCreateInput[], event: CalendarEvent): Promise<Contact[]> {
    const apiInstance = new PersonsApi(await this.getConfig());
    const bookingQuestions = await prisma.eventType.findUnique({
      where: { id: event.eventTypeId },
      select: { bookingFields: true },
    });

    const mappedData = Object.fromEntries(
      bookingQuestions.bookingFields
        .filter((field) => field.type === "pipedrive_custom_field") // Only pipedrive fields
        .map((field) => [field.apiKey, event?.userFieldsResponses[field.name]?.value ?? null]) // Match name with event values
        .filter(([_, value]) => value !== null) // Remove null values
    );

    console.log(mappedData);

    const result = contactsToCreate.map(async (attendee, index) => {
      try {
        const response = await apiInstance.addPerson({
          AddPersonRequest: {
            name: !!attendee.name ? attendee.name : attendee.email,
            email: [{ value: attendee.email }],
            phone: index === 0 ? event?.userFieldsResponses["attendee-phone"]?.value : "",
            ...mappedData,
          },
        });
        console.log("success response", response);
        if (!response.success) {
          throw new Error(`Reponse unsucessful: ${response}`);
        }
        const result = response.data;
        return result;
      } catch (error) {
        console.error("Error creating contact", { attendee, error });
        throw error;
      }
    });
