One or more associations are not valid when creating deal

Developer Support APIs & Integrations

Hello!

Have trouble with assotiating contact to deal. I try to create deal using POST crm/v3/objects/deals API with next associations array

"associations": [
 {
 "to": {
 "id": 3101
 },
 "types": [
 {
 "associationCategory": "HUBSPOT_DEFINED",
 "associationTypeId": 3
 }
 ]
 }
 ],

And I getting an error:

{
 "status": "error",
 "message": "one or more associations are not valid",
 "correlationId": "6e479ecb-245a-4c4b-9071-ffed833b6683",
 "category": "BAD_REQUEST"
}

May be exists some ways to get more accurate error? Because contact id is 100% correct

Hey, @DEgiptsev :waving_hand: Thanks for reaching out. I tried a similar request using the on-page example to Create a Deal — POST/crm/v3/objects/deals

Request:

curl --request POST \
 --url https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/deals \
 --header 'authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN' \
 --header 'content-type: application/json' \
 --data '{
 "properties": {
 "amount": "250.00",
 "closedate": "2023-12-07T16:50:06.678Z",
 "dealname": "Stunt helmets for cats",
 "dealstage": "presentationscheduled",
 "hubspot_owner_id": "198670650",
 "pipeline": "default"
 },
 "associations": [
 {
 "to": {
 "id": "901"
 },
 "types": [
 {
 "associationCategory": "HUBSPOT_DEFINED",
 "associationTypeId": 3
 }
 ]
 }
 ]
}'

Response:

}

In this case, it’s hard to say what the root cause is. The endpoint in a simple form (using the on-page example) works as expected. Can you share your full request?

Best,
