Talend output to Marketo New User

I use talend, and they have a marketo component which marketo acknowledges

http://www.marketo.com/customers/talend/

This is not a talend question:

I am able to use sync to update user info - which works well; however, I receive an error if the user doesnt exist. I use email as the target key - as its not possible to know the marketo id.

Are there marketo configurations that need to be updated to allow new users through API?

This was my error.

faultString: 20105 - Unknown lead field ... "Postal Code"

The "20105" threw me off, because there is no 20105 in my data.

"Postal Code" isnt allowed during insert; however, it is allowed during update. I removed this and the insert worked

Hey David,

Unknown Lead Field indicates that the noted field is not a valid API name.  To find a full list of API names, you can go to Admin>Field Management>Export Field Names

Thanks Ken, but this might be a bug(?) as Postal Code is present in this list and Postal Code works for updates - just not for inserts.

Using Zip works. First doesnt work, but FirstName does. Same for Last

David, are your using the API name 'PostalCode' in the API call?  Do you think you could provide an XML example, redacted if need be?
