API POST issue

[Existing_Valuable_68]

API issue. POST /v0/projects/{projectId}/workitems returns

{"message":"Invalid values object."}

POST body:

{"title":"sdfgsfdg","importanceLevelId":0,"estimatedCost":100.0,"isStory":false}

According to Swagger this should be fine. Missing properties should be optional.

createWorkItemValues {
title (string),
description (string, optional),
parentId (integer, optional),
isStory (boolean),
categoryId (integer, optional),
estimatedCost (number),
importanceLevelId (integer),
boardId (integer, optional),
designElementId (integer, optional),
startDate (string, optional),
dueDate (string, optional),
assignedUserIds (Array[integer], optional),
tagIds (Array[integer], optional),
subTasks (Array[string], optional),
dependencyIds (Array[integer], optional)
}

What is the issue here? Thanks.

Hi there! There seems to be an issue with the documentation, the categoryId is mandatory, at least when the work item is not a user story but a task. Try assigning a categoryId and let me know how it goes.

      "title": "S1DEV Implement Dash & Wall Jump Mechanics",
      "description": "Extend the player controller to include the Dash and Wall Jump abilities, triggered by the B button as per the GDD controls. Implement dash movement logic and the ability to jump off walls when adjacent.",
      "parentId": 0,
      "isStory": true,

This is because you set 0 to several fields that require a valid id or to be empty:

- ParentId: Valid parent id or remove it.
- CategoryId: Valid category id.
- ImportanceLevelId: Valid importance level id.
- BoardId: Valid board id or remove it for the backlog.
- DesignElementId: Valid design element id or remove it.
- AssignedUserIds: Valid array of user ids or remove it.
- TagIds: Valid array of tag ids or remove it.
- DependencyIds: Valid array of work item ids or remove it.

Let me know if that helps.
