Trying to update a description field of a Item

programmeuropwielen

Hi,

Iam trying to update the description of a Item with postman.

But the API just returns the Item object with the old description.

Can someone help me with the correct settings?

url: (I know i have to fill in the account id here ;)

https://api.merchantos.com/API/Account/{accountid}/Item/1296.json

body set to raw:

{

   "description":"hahaha voor ff dan"

}

Content-Type: tried 2 versions

application/x-www-form-urlencoded

&

application/json

thx for your help!

Hi @programmeuropwielen,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Both content types will work. I've tested this out, when I changed the description of an item it will change without any errors.

Can you send me the payload?

programmeuropwielen

I use this as the payload

{

   "description": "hahaha voor ff dan"

}

thx for your help :)

Hi @programmeuropwielen,

Are you getting an error?

programmeuropwielen

No it just gives me back the Item as a whole.. I think that is normal behaviour.. but without the description changed. Just tried to change the quantity of a shop and that worked. Can a description be locked for api maybe? read only?
