Workfront Fusion

JessicaBCrum · 3/12/25

I am trying to figure out how to add users to a project using Fusion. I have tried a Custom API call: Post and a Create Record for Project User. Neither work and produce a 422 error: [422] PRTU is not a top level object and can't be requested directly. I am trying to add a few users that will not be assigned to tasks to the new project and at the same time I need to remove the owner of the request from the converted request and add them to the project. Any help would be extremely appreciated!

Hi @JessicaBCrum

ProjectUser is a linking object, much like objectCategory and you can't modify those records directly.

Using a customAPI call you can add a user to a project like so

Thank you @Sven-iX! I will give this a try. I really appreciate you weighing in and providing a solution.

@Sven-iX Unfortunately I received an error. I have included a few screenshots of my input for the custom API call and the error I received.

@Sven-iX I adjusted the JSON body and still received an error:

RuntimeError

[400] APIModel V19_0 does not support action addUsersFromProject (PROJ)

@JessicaBCrum I am so sorry:
You'll need the "internal" API

@Sven-iX Now I am receiving this error:
[422] APIModel INTERNAL action addUsersFromProject does not support argument named {
"userIDs": [
"67c8bd320004760a3117d5618bf1072b"
]
}

Right - make sure you pass it like below

updates={"userIDs":["64dcc7480386dd0f8dde7c2e1ca1c62d"]}

@JessicaBCrum did you get it to work?

JessicaBCrum · 3/18/25

Thanks for checking in @Sven-iX! I ran it and did not receive an error; however the result was null:
{ "body": { "data": { "result": null } }

Sven-iX · 3/18/25

That's what I get too. Did you check the people's tab in the project? Or just get projectUsers before and after?

JessicaBCrum · 3/18/25

@svensvensven It worked! Thanks so much for your assistance. QQ - How would you remove a user or group of users if needed?

Sven-iX · 3/19/25

That was a different Sven : D

Thanks again for you help, @Sven-iX. I have a follow-up question, how would I include or remove a team instead of specific users on the converted project?
