Update Custom Field choices via WI/API

Hi,

We have an external system that manages product batches that I'd like to sync with Wrike.

I have created a custom field for Batch Number, which is a single-select CF. I'd like to programmatically update the available choices within this CF via the API/WI. I can't see an easy way of doing this within WI so I'm wondering if this functionality is available within the API?

I hope someone can help!

Cheers,

Phil

Hi @Phil Taylor

The Wrike API on custom field does support updating of the options for the CF.

https://developers.wrike.com/api/v4/custom-fields/#modify-custom-field

Look at the Request schema, under the settings, there's either values or options that you can use to update your CF dropdown selections.

Thank you @ChoongSeng Chen! I didn't realise there was a whole unexplored world under the Settings dropdown!

I am actually looking for a way to Add an option. This is the closest I've found and that's not helping. I keep getting an error in my python script. i left out personal info from the results. Existing client is fine & the process runs fine that way, but trying to add a new client fails.

packages/requests/models.py", line 1026, in raise_for_status    raise HTTPError(http_error_msg, response=self)requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 500 Server Error: Internal Server Error for url: https://www.wrike.com/api/v4/customfields/IEAF
