Workfornt API error message: is not a top level object and can't be requested directly in internal

[Sroider]

Hey Community,

I get for certain API request the following error message: 

is not a top level object and can't be requested directly in internal.

Does anyone of you know how to set the request to retrieve data?

Example request: https://YOURWORKFRONTDOMAIN.workfront.com/attask/api/v15.0/pred/search?fields=*

Many thanks in advance

Br,

Are you looking for a task that is a predecessor to another task?

Hi @Sroider,

Predecessors are a secondary object (ie child property) of a (primary) Task object, so try something like this:

https://YOURWORKFRONTDOMAIN.workfront.com/attask/api/v15.0/task/search?fields=predecessors:*
