POST

/Consumer/CustomProperties

Creates a custom property.

Payload should include custom property type id or name. Using both causes ambiguity in the Consumer API which will not try to set any priority over which one to use and return a Bad Request (400) HTTP status.

Example Request - custom property type id

{
    "Name":"Business Unit",
    "TypeId":1
}

Example Request - custom property type name

{
    "Name":"Business Unit",
    "TypeName":"ScopableTag"
}

From API version 4.0 onwards, you can add a collection of values that should be added for the property being created:

Example Request - custom property type name

{
    "Name":"Business Unit",
    "TypeName":"ScopableTag",
    "Values":[{
        "Value":"First"
    },
    {
        "Value":"Second"
    }]
}

  • Write

Returns Unauthorized (401) if user does not have the required permissions.

PUT

/Consumer/CustomProperties

Updates a custom property. Only name can be updated.

Update Payload

{
  "Id":7,
  "Name": "Building"
}

From API version 4.0 you can provide values that should replace any values the custom property had before the update. This is done via "Values" property in the payload as seen below:

Example Request - custom property type name

{
    "Id":"1",
    "Name":"Business Unit",
    "TypeName":"ScopableTag",
    "Values":[{
        "Value":"First"
    },
    {
        "Value":"Second"
    }]
}

  • If "Values" property is omitted or set to null, custom property values will not be modified

  • If "Values" property is set to an empty array (so [] is JSON), all custom property values belonging to this custom property will be removed.

  • If "Values" property contains a collection of values, they will replace any values that the custom property being updated had before the update.

  • Write

Returns Unauthorized (401) if user does not have the required permissions.

DELETE

/Consumer/CustomProperties/{id}

  • Write

Returns Unauthorized (401) if user does not have the required permissions.
