Adding tags and data tags to a party

[Sam Penny]

Hi there,

Fairly new to the API in general. At the moment I'm testing out adding tags and data tags to parties. I'm using curl to test, but will eventually translate into a webhook via Zapier.

How do I add tags and data tags to parties? I know you update parties using PUT, but I can't figure out the actual code.

curl -i -X PUT -H "Authorization: Bearer {Token}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-d '{
"party": [ {
"tag": {
"name": "Prospect"
} ]
}' https://api.capsulecrm.com/api/v2/parties/123

What am I getting wrong here? I have a tag/data tag called 'Prospect' that I want to add via the API.

I also want to add

Data tag: "Prospect"
Field: "Main product of interest": "Interest"

Good day Sam,

You will need to include the ID of the tag definition (https://developer.capsulecrm.com/v2/operations/Tag#listTags) in the tag object. If you get any other error messages, please copy and paste them here and I will be able to help further.

Thanks,

Thanks Tom, I tried:

curl -i -X PUT -H "Authorization: Bearer {token}" \

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-d '{
"party": [ {
"tag": {

"id":2296791,
"name": "Water Report Subscriber",
"description: "null",
"dataTag":false
} ]
}' https://api.capsulecrm.com/api/v2/parties/153512590/


Trying to add the 'Water Report Subscriber' tag. I retrieved the ID, but I received 'could not find resource' and a bunch of other messages

Almost there, the "tag" property needs to be "tags" and an array of objects.
