Hello all,

I am trying to map name from a web form to a contact field in an app via podio.net api. But unable to do that.

We are able to map the fields to any other field like name, email etc.

Is there anyway to map name to a contact field in the app?

Kind Regards,
Cormac

  I will look into this, if you could provide the code snippet you are using to do the contact field mapping.

  Thanks for the response here is the code
  var podio = new Podio("homeinstead-ccskvp", "key");
  podio.AuthenticateWithApp(13960889, "key");
  Item myNewItem = new Item();
  ContactItemField contactField = myNewItem.Field<ContactItemField>("contact-2");
  IEnumerable<Contact> contacts = contactField.Contacts;

          var t = podio.ContactService.CreateContact(appid, contacts);

  I noticed two mistakes in your code.

  1. You are initializing a empty Item object and trying to get a field 'contact-2' from it.
  2. In CreateContact method, you are supplying the AppId as first argument, it should be SpaceId.

  Idea is to create a work space contact which in turn returns profile id and i want to insert that in the leads app and map it to contact-2 filed in the leads app is that possible can you send me the exact code to create contact using contact service it would be great . var t = podio.ContactService.CreateContact(SpaceId, contacts cotact); what parameter we need to pass to contact is it a list of argument or just the text we want to create contact , spaceid is it workspace id ?

  Here is how to create it:

   var contactCreated = podio.ContactService.CreateContact(2365037, 
                  new PodioAPI.Models.Contact { Name = "John", BirthDate = DateTime.Now.AddYears(-26), City = "New Delhi" });
