POST Engagement Note Error

[troystaylor]

I'm getting a 400 error when trying to POST a new engagement. Here's the request:

{
  "properties": {
    "engagement": {
      "active": true,
      "type": "NOTE"
    },
    "metadata": "{\"body\": \"note body\"}"
  }
}

Here's the Response Header:

}

And the response body:

{
  "status": "error",
  "message": "engagement type cannot be null",
  "correlationId": "51b4cce1-a371-4b0c-8b94-a657bd3ba7a3"
}

@troystaylor , try removing that outer "properties" wrapping object and start with "engagement"

Something like:

{
    "engagement": {
        "active": true,
        "type": "NOTE",
    },
    "metadata": {
        "body": "note body"
    }
}

Also, the way you have the metadata formatted may cause a hiccup as well.

According to developer docs, it was listed SimplePublicObjectInputForCreate will do the job, but i don't think that is available. Did you find any right solution to create note engagements ? I am working with python hubapiclient for crm integration.
