Add task comments via Rest API

[ignatius_dilip]

Hi All,

I am currently working on POC by integrating the Adobe campaign classic with Workfront. In that, I want to post comments into the Workfront task from the Adobe campaign classic via REST API. I explored all the REST API endpoints in this link https://developer.workfront.com/ , but could not find the POST method that I was expecting. Could any one of please respond to me and provide a thoughtful answer/solution?

Hello ignatius,

Do you want to post an update into the task?

Then you can use the endpoint NOTE using a POST request with a body like this:

{
    "tags": [
        {
            "objID": "<userId>",
            "objObjCode": "USER"
        }
    ],
    "objID": "<taskId>",
    "subject": "Task update",
    "noteText": "Task was updated",
    "isMessage": true,
    "noteObjCode": "TASK",
    "json": "{}"

Regards.

Lars

Hello Lalit,

can you please post your full API call? Besides that, did you also try the same using the current API (version 18)?

v9.0 is a bit outdated...

Regards

Lars
