Invalid value for custom field type

[Patricio Christian Garcia]

Hi,

I am working wtih Python and when I tried to update a custom field I have this eror

Invalid value for custom field type

Update Custom Field item on Card

PUT /1/cards/{idCard}/customField/{idCustomField}/item

Documentation example

{
 "value": {
 "text": "<string>",
 "checked": true,
 "date": "2018-03-13T16:00:00.000Z",
 "number": 2154
 }
}

I need to set number field but I do not know how pass this parameter in the querystring variable.

querystring = {'number': '123',"key":KEY,"token":TOKEN}

response = requests.request("PUT", url, params=querystring)

Thanks a lot for you help, I appreciate so much.

Patricio.

@Patricio Christian Garcia yeah the trello Custom Fields API is an absolute crime against humanity. I copied and pasted my way through it from a bunch of random StackOverflow answers, you can see the finished product here, if you look at the various function calls and so on, in my implementation of a straight forward "setCustomFieldValue" wrapper around it for my Trellinator framework:

https://github.com/iaindooley/trellinator-libs/blob/master/Card.js#L1401

I don't know enough Python to easily translate that but it's all just HTTP calls so should be easy enough to adapt to your purposes.
