Not able to create an organization in Pipedrive with custom properties

[Artego]

I’m trying to create an organization in Pipedrive with some customer properties, just like it works with a Deal or a Person. However, the only difference is that whenever I add a custom property, there are no dropdown options but rather a text field. And the flow stops since on this step with an error

Hey @Artego, I hope you’re well?

Have you seen this post on the topic? Might be worth giving this a go and see if your custom fields can be written if you use the internal ID of the field.

Pipedrive - Adding Custom Properties

Hey @seank1968! I was able to replicate your issue and I found a solution. Even though we create a custom field in Pipedrive called note, Pipedrive internally stores it with a different name (a bunch of random characters). Hence, when you want to access these custom fields you have to refer to them using the field name Pipedrive uses. One way to find out the field name is execute the Get All operation and get the field name. Once you have the field name, you can use it to refer to the custom fi…

Go to Company Settings > Data Fields, then select the Person tab. Check the Custom Fields dropdown for your custom field. Click the three dots in the right corner of the field, then select Copy API Key. Use it as shown:

{
    "name": "John Doe",
    "emails": [
        {
            "value": "[email protected]"
        }
    ],
    "custom_fields": {
        "ad3c0d01a162c11d660b2710486ff1d79964adb6": "Some Technologies"
    },
    "label_ids": [27]
}
