Workflow - PublicMergeInput

I'm using Hubspot workflows, specifically one of the custom code modules. I'm trying to import the PublicMergeInput class into my python 3.9 custom code.


I am getting an ImportModuleError...
cannot import name 'PublicMergeInput' from 'hubspot.crm.contacts'

 

It is not working on any of the hubspot clients offered (v4,v7,v8). 

 

Is this functionality not supported in Workflows?
I have been successfull using it outside of workflows in a python enviornment. 


Here is what the code looks like up top...

import hubspot
import os
from hubspot.crm.contacts import PublicMergeInput
from hubspot.events import ApiException

Rest of code left out...

 

Thanks,
Josh

Workflow - PublicMergeInput

Hi @JTrygg 👋

 

I wasn't able to reproduce the issue you're experiencing. Here's my custom code that successfully merged 2 Contacts (Python 3.9, HubSpot Client v8):

 

import hubspot
import os
from hubspot.crm.contacts import PublicMergeInput, ApiException
client = hubspot.Client.create(access_token=os.environ["your_hs_pat_secret_name"])

def main(event):
  public_merge_input = PublicMergeInput(object_id_to_merge="12345", primary_object_id="67890") # these are placeholder contact record ids
  try:
    api_response = client.crm.contacts.public_object_api.merge(public_merge_input=public_merge_input) # note that the "public_object_api" was renamed to "merge_api" in V10, so HS API documentation example doesn't work as is
    print(api_response)
  except ApiException as e:
    print("Exception when calling merge_api->merge: %s\n" % e)
    raise
  # Return the output data that can be used in later actions in your workflow.
  return {
    "outputFields": {
      "example": "example"
    }
  }

 

I hope that proves helpful. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions.

All the best,

Zach
