Workfront API call to create record and attach MULTIPLE custom forms simultaneously

Hi Community,

can anyone please advise me if / how I can use the Workfront API to create a record in WF and attach multiple custom forms to that simultaneously, at creation time?

 

It's straightforward to create a record with 1 CF attached, for example, to create a Program:

POST to the /PRGM end point.

Body: {"name":"Foo", "portfolioID":"<portfolioID>", "categoryID":"<ID of Custom form to attach>"}

Is there a way to attach multiple custom forms?

 

I assume the API supports that, because the recently added new "Create record" Workfront Module in Fusion allows us to do that.

But I can't figure out how to do it.

 

Appreciate any help with this.

Thank you,

Tibor

    You would have to post a collection. I had to ask copilot how to do this, and the response was:

     

    Step 1: Open Postman

    • Launch Postman and create a new request.

    Step 2: Configure the API Request

    • Method: POST

    • URL: https://<your-instance>.attask/api/v14.0/project

    • Headers:

      • Content-Type: application/json

      • Authorization: Bearer <your-access-token>

    Step 3: Set Up the Request Body

    In Postman, choose "Body" → "Raw" and enter this JSON payload:

     

    (At this point, I put in something that looked similar to this: )

     

    {
      "name": "New Project",
      "templateID": "12345",
      "description": "API-created project",
      "objectCategories": [
        { "categoryID": "2468" },
        { "categoryID": "1357" }
      ]
    }

    Hi Skye,

    thanks a million!

    It was the collection bit that was missing for me:

    "objectCategories": [ { "categoryID": "2468" }, { "categoryID": "1357" } ]

    I tested this and it works nicely. 🙂

    Best,

    Tibor
