Setting a hasUniqueValue flag for the line_item property fails

Hi!

I'm trying to set the hasUniqueValue flag for the line item property, and the return is 200 OK, but the value is not saved.

Here's a sample request:

curl --request PATCH \ --url https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/properties/line_item/ws_c7_ext_id \ --header 'authorization: Bearer xxxxxx' \ --header 'content-type: application/json' \ --data '{ "hasUniqueValue": true }'

And the response is false:

{ "updatedAt": "2023-03-14T11:21:23.492Z", "createdAt": "2023-01-31T17:09:27.261Z", "name": "ws_c7_ext_id", "label": "WS C7 External ID", "type": "string", "fieldType": "text", "description": "", "groupName": "", "options": [], "updatedUserId": "xxxxxx", "displayOrder": 2, "calculated": false, "externalOptions": false, "archived": false, "hasUniqueValue": false, "hidden": false, "modificationMetadata": { "archivable": true, "readOnlyDefinition": false, "readOnlyValue": false }, "formField": true }

I failed to find any documented limitations on these properties, maybe someone has encountered this issue before me?

Hey, @balabanov 👋 To confirm, this is a custom property, you've created? If so, can you make a call to the properties API and conform the field-type, please? My gut feeling (non-scientific opinion) is there is limitation on not adding this to existing properties. Meaning, it can only be set when the property is created. If so, I'll provide a suggestion to have the documentation updated.

Best,

hey @Jaycee_Lewis

You're correct, it's a custom property. Here goes the output:

{ "updatedAt": "2023-03-14T11:21:48.720Z", "createdAt": "2023-01-31T17:09:27.261Z", "name": "ws_c7_ext_id", "label": "WS C7 External ID", "type": "string", "fieldType": "text", "description": "", "groupName": "xxxxxx", "options": [], "updatedUserId": "xxxxxx", "displayOrder": 2, "calculated": false, "externalOptions": false, "archived": false, "hasUniqueValue": false, "hidden": false, "modificationMetadata": { "archivable": true, "readOnlyDefinition": false, "readOnlyValue": false }, "formField": true }

Hey, @balabanov 👋 Based on a product update from last summer (I am still trying to find the link to add here) this can only be added to a property when it is created. My other mission here is to get the documentation updated to include this detail.

Best,

Jaycee
