Unable to update items in the CMS?

Developer Support
1

Somewhat of a weird issue i’m running into but was hoping for some help. I’m pulling model items from the CMS and comparing them to items from squares API. I compare time stamps, and if square item has a more recent time stamp than what’s in the cms, i overwrite the cms item with data from square. However in testing this, the PUT method is overwriting random items in the CMS, and not the ones i’m targeting using a unique id. any thoughts?

Weird! Do you have an example API call with item ID that updates the wrong item?

That is the response

Here is an example of an item I’m passing to the PUT method

6 
{
    id: '25nEJRQiM3Yf4ZoLgJ3VYc',
    createdAt: '2022-09-02T19:08:20.130Z',
    updatedAt: '2022-09-02T19:08:20.130Z',
    identifier: 'baklawa',
    data: {
      name: 'baklawa',
      description: 'pistachio, walnut, orange blossom water',
      price: 350,
      category: 'sweets',
      dietaryInfo: 'v ',
      addOns: '',
      publishToGuestMenu: true,
      timeStamp: '2022-09-12T17:08:44.24Z',
      uid: '4PNH7LVFXFSYP3WPGTZB2K6V',
      dayPart: 'all day',
      restaurantName: 'hanoon'
    }
7

So in this case, nothing is happening. Sometimes it replaces the data object with another menu items data object. So the identifier would be “baklawa” but the data object would be for a “hummus” item. It should be updating the info within the data object, but nothing is being overwritten

It’s getting a 404, apparently that CMS row was deleted at UTC 2022-09-12 17:52:59.347000 +00:00

9

Is the rowID referencing the specific item ID?

10

Might be a silly question

11

That’s right

12 
const putToPlasmic = async (updateItem) => {
  const CMS_ID = process.env.CMS_ID;
  const CMS_SECRET_TOKEN = process.env.CMS_SECRET_TOKEN;
  const rowId = "3smqoyLxhLvJbAFkV3dsw2";
13

So in this case, I should have const rowID = updateItem.id

14

Got it, thank you so much yang

15

Yeah, you should only need to specify the rowID in the URL, and don’t need to include it in the body

16

For some reason I thought the rowID was pointing to the models. Got it all worked out. I’m still struggling with the frontend, is there any way I could schedule a meeting with the Vue engineer to get some insight?
