Error 500 while changing main_address

[Gabriel Deschênes]

Whenever I add or change main_address of a contact, I get a 500 error:

[
  {
     "$severity": "error",
     "$dataCode": "UnexpectedError",
     "$message": "An unexpected error occurred.",
     "$source": ""
  }
]

Here's my request:

PUT https://api.accounting.sage.com/v3.1/contacts/1c183acd2c1540c1b2e4e6d94a6a4c2e


{
  "contact": {
    "name": "[TEST] NEW CUSTOMER",
    "contact_type_ids": [
      "CUSTOMER"
    ],
    "main_address": {
      "address_line_1": "1470 Centre St",
      "city": "Vaughan",
      "postal_code": "L4J3N1",
      "name": "Tony Abshire",
      "region": "ON",
      "country": "CA",
      "is_main_address": true
    }
  }
}

But if I omit the main_address field, the update works. Thanks for looking into it.

Hi Gabriel,

Thank you for your question.

You're passing country which is an invalid parameter and needs to be changed to country_id. 

 

{
  "contact": {
    "name": "[TEST] NEW CUSTOMER",
    "contact_type_ids": [
      "CUSTOMER"
    ],
    "main_address": {
      "address_line_1": "1470 Centre St",
      "city": "Vaughan",
      "postal_code": "L4J3N1",
      "name": "Tony Abshire",
      "region": "ON",
      "country_id": "CA",
      "is_main_address": true
    }
  }
}

Thanks

Mark

That works. Error 500 is a weird error for a validation issue. Maybe return a 422 instead. Thanks.
