API to edit custom field value

[howardchan]

I wanted to use API to edit the custom field value. Here is my code.

mutation Site {

    site(id: <site id>) {

        editAsset(

            key: <asset key>,

            fields: { assetCustom: { fields: {

                                        fieldKey: <custom field key>,

                                        value: "API edit testing"

            } } }

        )

    }

}

But I got the below error. Anyone could help? thanks.

"message": "Field 'editAsset' of type 'EditAssetResponse' must have a selection of subfields. Did you mean 'editAsset { ... }'?"

Thanks for the reply. I have created a support case, unfortunately I am told that troubleshooting API is not in the scope of application support. I am still stuck in the problem and have no clue to resolve it.

I found that it didn't work even a simple command to change a preset field. Anyone could help? thanks.

mutation Site {

    site(id: <site id>) {

        editAsset(

            key: <key>

            fields: { assetCustom: { comment: "API edit testing" } }

        )

    }

}

Hello there!

Have you tried debugging your code with an AI assistant like ChatGPT? They are usually very good at helping with these types of queries.

Thanks. I did and it worked. At the same time, the technical support also relied me with the same solution.
