API patching custom fields

[Jay Wallace]

I am patching a custom field via API.  my patch returns a 200 and the complete data for the device but the custom filed has not been changed.

This is my data I am Patching with:

{ 

   "custom_fields": {

       "prtg_id": "4746"

   }

} 

This is the custom fields section of the reply:

    "custom_fields": {

        "End of Warranty": null,

        "last_audit": "2021-03-22",

        "prtg_id": "",

        "Purchase Date": null,

        "Purchase Order": ""

    },

Any suggestion would be very helpful.

Thanks

Here is the entire curl request:

curl --location --request PATCH 'http://netbox.mydomain.org/api/dcim/devices/236/' \

--header 'Accept: application/json' \

--header 'Authorization: Token <<my token>>' \

--header 'Content-Type: text/plain' \

--data-raw '{ 

   "custom_fields": {

       "prtg_id": "4746"

   }

} '
