Hello Team,
I'm trying to send a POST request through the endpoint using axios, so that I can update the member's group.
Flow for the code below: I call the function updateMemberGroup, which uses the function searchMember to get the member's id, and then I try to update the member's group on the endpoint api/core/members/${id}, as shown in the documentation:
https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/rest-api?endpoint=core/members/POSTitem
Please find below my code for that:
async function searchMember(email) {
const url = communityUrl + 'api/core/members';
let id = axios.get(url + `?email=${email}`, {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'User-Agent': 'MyUserAgent/1.0',
'Authorization': `Basic ${Buffer.from(apiKey + ':').toString('base64')}`,
},
})
.then(response => {
let id = response.data.results[0].id
return id
})
.catch(error => {
console.error(error);
return null
});
return id
}
async function updateMemberGroup(email) {
let id = await searchMember(email);
if (!id) {
console.log("Member not found");
return;
}
console.log(`Updating status for member with email ${email}`);
console.log(`User ID: ${id}`);
const url = communityUrl + `api/core/members/${id}`;
let data = {
"group": 9 // "Not paying" member
};
let resp = await axios.post(url, data, {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'User-Agent': 'MyUserAgent/1.0',
'Authorization': `Basic ${Buffer.from(apiKey + ':').toString('base64')}`,
},
})
.then(response => {
console.log(`Updated Successfully ${email}`);
return response.data;
})
.catch(error => {
console.error(error);
return "error";
});
return resp;
}
I don't run into any errors and tried several approaches, I get the 200 OK response in the API Logs, but the member is returning with the primaryGroup not changed (still as a member, and not the group I'm trying to assign):
{
"id": 284,
"name": "Kaue Nogueira",
"title": null,
"timeZone": "America\/Sao_Paulo",
"formattedName": "Kaue Nogueira",
"primaryGroup": {
"id": 3,
"name": "Members",
"formattedName": "Members"
}, ...
Further info:
- Access for the POST request is given in the API Key.
- I tried changing other parameters as test, without success as well, so I don't know if it's something with the POST request only on api/core/members/${id}(as I easily can add members through POST on api/core/members )
Can you please help me on understanding this?
