Name is not populated while doing in REST api
Posted: Fri Jul 20, 2018 1:43 pm
Problem 1:
While creating any of the following objects Lead, ClientContact or Candidate in Bullhorn CRM UI, Bullhorn is showing "Name" field automatically by concatenating first name & last name.
But when doing via api, it is not working.
In meta api for all of the above I got "Name" field but that is "readOnly.
When I set first name, last name & middle name if available. But it will not be pre populated in Bullhorn CRM.
Problem 2:
While creating an appointment, i pass Candidates which was created via REST api to "Recipients".
Once appointment created, i could not see "Recipients" in Bullhorn CRM
So my questions are,

Code: Select all
{
"name": "name",
"type": "SCALAR",
"dataType": "String",
"maxLength": 100,
"dataSpecialization": "SYSTEM",
"confidential": false,
"optional": true,
"label": "Name",
"required": false,
"readOnly": true,
"multiValue": false,
"hideFromSearch": false,
"sortOrder": 1000,
"hint": "",
"description": ""
}
Problem 2:
While creating an appointment, i pass Candidates which was created via REST api to "Recipients".
Once appointment created, i could not see "Recipients" in Bullhorn CRM
So my questions are,
- Why "Name" field was not pre populated automatically while creating objects via REST api like in Bullhorn CRM?
- Should I set value for "Name" field, even it is readOnly.
