Hello,

I want create an association between 2 same type of custom object(Bases) by API.

I tried this request:

- POST

- https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/associations/2-/2-XXXXXXX/batch/create

-

{
 "inputs": [
 {
 "from": {
 "id": "ID_CUSTOM_OBJECT_A"
 },
 "to": {
 "id": "ID_CUSTOM_OBJECT_B"
 },
 "type": "2-XXXXXXXX_to_2-XXXXXXXX"
 }
 ]
}

My problem is about fill the type field, in api doc, the given example is

"type": "contact_to_company"

I made some tries: ‘base_to_base’, ‘bases_to_bases’, both with uppercase, ‘2-XXXXXXXX_to_2-XXXXXXXX’, …

The error message is:

“subCategory”: “crm.associations.INVALID_ASSOCIATION_TYPE”,

“message”: " ‘BAD TYPE’ is not a valid association type between XXXXXXXXX and XXXXXXXXX"

I cannot find in the interface the expected type. I want some help about this thank you :slightly_smiling_face:

Ultimately, I found the solution. It was necessary to create association with a label ‘LABEL XXX’ and put this label in the type field.
