Update select Street Address fields on Person via API Patch

Henrik Povlsen

Hi All,

I'm (desperately!) trying to update select fields on a Person's street address, but so far no syntax has been successful for me.

Could somebody point me in the right direction? I've reading a bunch of posts in the forum, but none seem to adress specifically how to update select address fields on a person through a patch operation calling the Super Office API.

My (latest) syntax is as below:

[
{
"op": "replace",
"path": "Address/LocalizedAddress/Street/Line1",
"value": "@{variables('Address1')}"
}
]

 

Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm getting grey hairs by now :-D

Best Regards,

Henrik

Hi Henrik,

Don't worry about the localized fields, just use the simplified street or postal paths..

PATCH https://sod.superoffice.com/Cust12345/api/v1/person/29 HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Bearer 8A:Cust12345.sdfsdfgibberush.moregibberish
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json

[ 
    { 
        "op": "replace", 
        "path": "Address/Street", 
        "value": {
            "Address1": "225 Shattuck Hill Road C-1"
        }
    } 
]

Hope this helps!

Hi Tony,
Thank you for your reply and suggestion.

It almost works: Out of the four address lines only the City is updated. I'm at a loss as to why as the syntax is the same for all four fields.

Here's the City field:

And here's the Address1 field:

The look identical, yet only City is uploaded through the API:

So I'm on my way, but in need of one last push, I think :-)

 

Best Regard,

Henrik

Hi Henrik,

You have to send the complete address fields together, otherwise it removes all the fields and only the last update wins.

[ 
    { 
        "op": "replace", 
        "path": "Address/Street", 
        "value": {
            "Address1": "225 Shattuck Hill Road C-1",
            "Address2": "C/O Tony Yates",
            "City": "Somewhere",
            "State": "OH",
            "Zipcode": "03823"
        }
    } 
]

The alternate PATCH syntax would be like this:

[
{
"op": "replace",
"path": "Address/Street/Address1",
"value": "foo"
},
{
"op": "replace",
"path": "Address/Street/Address2",
"value": "bar"
},
{
"op": "replace",
"path": "Address/Street/City",
"value": "quux"
}
]

This will leave the other address fields unchanged.
