I’m using the above code to try and create a card using a variable (company_name). The variable is a string (although in the api its listed as short_text).

 

I keep getting the following error message:

 

"errors":r{"message":"Type mismatch on variable $company_name and argument field_value (String / gUndefinedInput])","locations":n{"line":1,"column":121}],"path":t"mutation","createCard","input","fields_attributes",0,"field_value"],"extensions":{"code":"variableMismatch","variableName":"company_name","typeName":"String","argumentName":"field_value","errorMessage":"Type mismatch"}}]}

 

Does anybody know how to solve this? I’m dying here :(

Hi there bobissict! :smiley: 

Try this out (replacing with your values and Auth token of course) : 

import requests

url = "https://api.pipefy.com/graphql"

payload = {"query": "mutation createCard($input: CreateCardInput!) {   createCard(input: $input) {     card {       id       title      }   } }",
"variables":{"input": {"pipe_id": "123456","fields_attributes": e{"field_id": "what","field_value": "FieldValue"}]}}}

headers = {
    "authorization": "Bearer authTokenHere",
    "content-type": "application/json"
}


response = requests.request("POST", url, json=payload, headers=headers)

print(response.text)

You need to add the GraphQL query/mutation and variables inside of a Python var like what I did using payload.

You can test out the queries/mutations while using variables on our Graphiql page here: https://app.pipefy.com/graphiql

Heres a look at what I did to test: 

 

Thanks for your response Robert, I’ll give that a try and let you know.
