Hi,
I’ve been cranking on this for the last hour or so to make sure I’m not getting it wrong, but I believe there is a bug in updating Contacts using the Contact API.
More specificially, it relates to only ONE field: “status”
The API docs state that options are “Active” and “Hidden”, but no matter what I try, I cannot change the “status” attribute of a contact using the API.
I can alter any other Contact Attribute (that I’ve tested), but when I try updating “status”, the request is responded to as normal, but the contact data I receive back from the request, and if I lookup the contact again, the “status” attribute is UNCHANGED.
This is not a API implementation failure - we are successfully creating/deleting/updating contacts, invoices, bills etc. without issue. But the contact status is the only thing we cannot seem to alter using the API.
Is this expected behaviour? If so, it’s not documented in the API documentation, and if not, a fix to this would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
