Updating Custom Fields on a Document Form

[ShaneG]

Hi everyone,

We have a custom form for a Document within a specific portfolio that I am looking to update the Record with. I am able to find the field within Update Record > Document. However I am receiveing a runtime error if [422] category cannot be null. My suspecion is that since the form doesn't default on the document until after you manually select it that Fusion that the Module doesn't see the fields to update on the document. Is there another step I am missing before this?

Hi @ShaneG 

if you're certain that the form is NOT yet there when you set the values, and there is no other form, then set "categoryID" to the form ID.

Note: categoryID is a shortcut to the first custom form attached - which means if there already is a form attached, setting categoryID will effectively replace that existing form. 

If it's possible that other forms may already be there, use the MiscAction module, and choose the action "assignCategories" just prior to setting the custom fields.
