Create a Company Property - API

[jasond1]

I am trying to create a company property using the API, but am getting the message message: 'name can not be null or empty' Any ideas?

 var request = require("request");

  var options = { method: 'POST',

    url: "https://api.hubapi.com/properties/v1/companies/properties",

    qs: { hapikey: '96fdcb0c-a9b6-4db4-ac9e-56703ab1fca4' },

    headers: 

     {'Content-Type': 'application/json' },

    body: 

     { properties: 

        [ { name: 'name',         value: 'redflag_company_number' },

          { name: 'label',        value: 'Company Number'         },

          { name: 'groupName',    value: 'companyinformation'     },

          { name: 'type',         value: 'string'                 },

          { name: 'fieldType',    value: 'text'                   },

          { name: 'description',  value: 'Company Number'         } ] },

    json: true };

  request(options, function (error, response, body) 

  {

      if (error) throw new Error(error);

      console.log(body);

  });

Hey @jasond1,

When looking to create a company property using the Create a Company Property | Company Properties API the POST body should follow a similar structure like this:

{
  "name": "another_example_property",
  "label": "Another Example Property",
  "description": "Another property being created as an example.",
  "groupName": "companyinformation",
  "type": "string",
  "fieldType": "text"
}

Looking at your code, it looks like you have included { properties with an array of the field. 

Could you remove the properties array and see if it works?
