I'm trying to create a new item in Podio using .Net for an app that uses an app field that is referenced from another app ("sending-location"). I keep getting an error
error 400, field.app.invalid, the referenced item is not valid.
I'm trying to hard code the id value for testing purposes but to no avail have I managed to get this to work. if I remove the app field I'm able to create the item, but I need that field.
My code is provided below:
Item myNewItem = new Item();
// App Field with external_id 'sending-location'
var clientField = myNewItem.Field<AppItemField>("sending-location");
clientField.ItemId = 15;
// Text Field with external_id 'status'
var statusField = myNewItem.Field<CategoryItemField>("status");
statusField.OptionId = 1;
//Text Field with external_id 'priority'
var priorityField = myNewItem.Field<CategoryItemField>("priority");
if(((DropDownList)fvSupportRequest.FindControl("ddlPriority")).SelectedValue == "Standard")
priorityField.OptionId = 1;
else
priorityField.OptionId = 2;
// Text Field with external_id 'receiving-referring-location'
var detailsField = myNewItem.Field<TextItemField>("receiving-referring-location");
detailsField.Value = ((TextBox)fvSupportRequest.FindControl("txtLocId")).Text + "<br />"
+ ((TextBox)fvSupportRequest.FindControl("txtSuppDetails")).Text;
int itemId = podio.ItemService.AddNewItem(podio_eReports_AppId, myNewItem);
You are using the app_item_id and not the item_id. Go to your item, click the "Actions" dropdown at the top and pick the "Developer" option. There you can see the item_id -- it will be a much larger number
