Hi Team!
GET v3/account/:id
gives you an account. You can see the sourceId
as top level attribute. Any account attribute is visible in the nested attributed attributes
.
We want to update an account. PUT v3/accounts/:id
and PATCH v3/accounts/:id
only works on accounts from delimited file sources for some reason. However, we discovered that POST v3/accounts
strangely does accept account updates. If we look at the input of POST v3/accounts
we notice that the sourceId
needs to be passed within the list of account attributes. This inconsistency is causing that we can’t easily do a GET
, take the response, tweak it where necessary and then use the POST
. We first need to relocate the sourceId
attribute. See:
I would fix this by changing the behavior of the POST v3/accounts
API, where the request body has the sourceId
attribute as top level attribute (or even allow PUT
and PATCH
for any account).
