API Create for Tasks/Calls etc where there are linked records

[mkas]

Hi there,
I am trying to make an API call to create tasks or calls that are linked to the assigned user.

This is the code that I am using for the actual call, but I am getting an ERROR (403) message.
I have checked the API user and they have full access.

Am I missing something - I am using PHP.

The path that is being called in the $client->request is POST /User/1/Task (the user-id I am trying to use is 1)

$emailAddress = $response['list'][0]['emailAddress'];
$parent = $response['list'][0]['id'];
$user = $response['list'][0]['assignedUserId'];


if($formEmailAddress !== $emailAddress) {
$formerror = 'Sorry, your email address does not match the one of file. Please try again.';
} else {
$params = [
'name' => 'Call Back Requested',
'priority' => 'High',
'parent' => $parent,
'description' => $desc,
'dateStartDate' => $dueDate,
];

}

try {

$response = $client->request('POST', 'User/' . $user . '/Task', $params);

} catch (\Exception $e) {
$errorCode = $e->getCode();
$formerror = 'We had an issue processing your request. Please try again later.<br>
Error code: ' . $errorCode;
}

You should send whole payload to /api/v1/Task
Type of request should be POST. If you have any issues you should open console in your browser, open network tab, create new task and check requests.

Hi emillod ,

Thank you so much!
I had tried that before I tried the other way - but I just realised I made a mistake.
I had used the variable assignedUser in the payload, when it should have been assignedUserId.

Thanks heaps!
