Hi  
Is it possible to set the null value back on the property that has a value? Property is a multiple checkbox type with 2 options. I know that we can set the empty value there, but my question is if we could set the null there.

Hi @mbulanda,

How exactly are you making this change? Generally, just unchecking the two values would to the trick.

Best regards

Hi @karstenkoehler  
Unchecking is setting the empty value, not a null one. Let me show you an example how we see this using the API:  
1. null value:

2. empty value after setting the property value and unchecking the values:

Question is if we can bring back the null somehow, instead of setting the empty one.
