Create deal with company and contact associations (Create Deal API)

[#1]

Hi,

I am trying to create deal with company and contact association and getting error :
Array
(
[status] => error
[message] => Invalid input JSON: Invalid JSON input: Unsupported java type [LONG] for field [associated_vids] for json type VALUE_STRING
[correlationId] => 191534ae-0d85-4f2e-8347-7e159ea6f93b
[requestId] => 6b90631d-79c7-40cd-9092-8668c5e516a1
)

My json array for creating deal is :

“associations”:{“associatedCompanyIds”:[“223609512”],“associatedVids”:[“1451”]},“properties”:[{“name”:“dealname”,“value”:“kaith Company New1 New Deal”},{“name”:“amount”,“value”:“245.82”},{“name”:“dealstage”,“value”:“appointmentscheduled”}]}

Is there any way to create deal with company / contact associations?

Thanks in advance for your help.

That usually means that the ID specified doesn’t belong to a valid record. If you’ve previously used that vid it’s possible that the record was deleted.

Hi @kaith

The associated IDs need to be passed as numbers, not strings, so all you should need to do is remove the quotes "" around the IDs.

"associations":{"associatedCompanyIds":[223609512],"associatedVids":[1451]},

@dadams Hi. I am trying to mass import a list of deals and need to associate them to companies that I have created. I am new to the API world and don’t know where to paste the code you provided above. I have created a developer portal and created my first app … where do I go next? Thanks

@Rafael_Fernandes the app in HubSpot is just a set of settings that would let you authenticate your system with a HubSpot account. Any actual code would need to be implemented outside of HubSpot.
