API call: Get all custom fields (parameters) assigned to a section (parameter group) within a custom form (category)

[lgaertner]

Hello,

I need help writing an API call to get all custom fields, which are assigned to a section within a custom form.

I do know how to get the section ID

https://<domainname>.my.workfront.com/attask/api/v15.0/pgrp/<sectionId>

But I want to get all fields (parameters) within this section. To get all fields within a form I use

https://<domainname>.my.workfront.com/attask/api/v15.0/ctgy/<customFormId>?fields=categoryParameters:parameter

Thanks in advance. 

Regards

Lars

You need to search for Category Parameters (specific occurrences of a custom field). This isn't a top level object and cannot be searched directly, so you have to search the Parameter object and use an EXISTS filter that specifies the specific occurrences where the parameter exists on a certain custom form and section. EXISTS only work in the unsupported API.

Hello William,

thanks a lot, this works.

It is a pity that it is not possible with the supported API.
