editAccount (   $accountId,
  $rev,
  $account 
)

Edit an account.

Fields which allow multiples (phone, email, URL, etc.) will be completely replaced by whatever data you supply, if you supply any data for the field. (Eg. the new phone array replaces all previously known phone numbers.) If you are updating a multi-value field, you must include all values you wish to keep (not just the new values) for the field.

If a note is specified, it will be added to the existing notes (preexisting notes are not affected).

Tags can be edited as well – the specified array of tags will replace all existing tags, so you should retrieve and include existing tags if you only want to add a new one. Note that the tags must already exist (see newTag() )

"account": {
"name": "New Account Name",
"industryId": "2",
"accountTypeId": "1",
"phone": {
"cell": "717-555-0467",
"office": "877-000-9237"
},
"owner": {
"entityType": "Users",
"id": 1
},
"note": "Needs to be contacted!",
"tags": ["some tag name", "some other tag"],
// Include keys and values to be updated
}

editActivity (   $activityId,
  $rev,
  $activity 
)

Edit an activity.

These fields can be edited with this method:

  • name (string)
  • description (string)
  • leads (array of objects, see example below)
  • status (int)
  • location (see example below)
  • startTime (ATOM/rfc3339)
  • endTime (ATOM/rfc3339)
  • activityTypeId
  • isAllDay (boolean)
  • isTimed (boolean, corresponds to "Any time" checkbox on web)
  • isFlagged (boolean, corresponds to "Important" flag on web)
  • participants (array of objects, see example below)
  • logNote (object containing key 'note')
  • followupTo (id of an activity to which this is a follow-up)

All fields are optional. Any parameters which are not included in the API request will be left untouched.

Participants specified here will replace all curently existing ones; if you include a 'participants' key, you must include any existing participants you'd like to keep. If you don't include a 'participants' key, the activity's participants will not be modified.

An activity is logged by setting 'status' to 1 and optionally including a logNote. The log note can contain any number of mentions, as described at Note::_render.

Possible values for the status field:

0 = not logged
1 = logged
"activity": {
"name": "NewName",
"endTime": "2011-02-13T14:53:27+01:00",
"activityTypeId": 1,
"participants": [
{
"id": 42,
"entityType": "Users"
},
{
"id": 32,
"entityType": "Contacts"
}
],

{
"entityType": "Leads",
"id": 1000
},
{
"entityType": "Leads",
"id": 1001
}
],

"logNote": {
"note": "Meeting went swimmingly!"
}
}

Parameters
int$activityIdactivity ID to edit
string$rev
array$activityupdated activity information
Returns
Activity The updated activity
editContact (   $contactId,
  $rev,
  $contact 
)

Edit a contact.

Fields which allow multiples (phone, email, URL, etc.) will be completely replaced by whatever data you supply, if you supply any data for the field. (Eg. the new phone array replaces all previously known phone numbers.) If you are updating a multi-value field, you must include all values you wish to keep (not just the new values) for the field.

If a note is specified, it will be added to the existing notes (preexisting notes are not affected).

Tags can be edited as well – the specified array of tags will replace all existing tags, so you should retrieve and include existing tags if you only want to add a new one. Note that the tags must already exist (see newTag() )

"contact": {
"name": "Andy Fowler",
"phone": {
"work": "717-555-0480",
"home": "+216 717-555-6633",
"cell": "877-555-5001"

"id": 1
},
"note": "cool guy",
"description": "Works late call anytime",
"tags": ["some tag name", "some other tag"],
}

Note that if an e-mail address is modified, added, or removed, then the 'lastContactedDate' and the 'contactedCount' values in the returned contact may be inaccurate.

Try it out!

See also
newContact() for input specifications
Parameters
int$contactIdthe contact ID to update
string$rev
array$contactthe updated contact information
Returns
Contact The updated contact
editLead (   $leadId,
  $rev,
  $lead 
)

Edit a lead.

Also used for adding, deleting, and editing related entities.

The assignee specified here will replace the existing one.

Similarly, specifying any related entity (e.g. a product or contact) via the applicable key will replace all existing relationships. Adding a related entity is done by appending the new relationship to the end of the list, and deletion is possible by removing the relationship from the list.

Tags can be edited as well – the specified array of tags will replace all existing tags, so you should retrieve and include existing tags if you only want to add a new one. Note that the tags must already exist (see newTag() )

A note specified here will be added to the preexisting notes. You cannot remove notes.

Possible values for the competitor->status field:

0 = STATUS_POTENTIAL
1 = STATUS_STOLE // they stole from us
2 = STATUS_BEAT // we beat them

Any values to be updated should be specified in an array like the following (all fields are optional):

"lead": {
"primaryAccount": {"id": "1234"},
"market": {"id": "1"},
"tags": ["some tag name", "some other tag"],
"confidence": 50,

"rev": 5,
} , ...
],
"note": "new note (string value)",
"customFields": {
"Tracking #": "4212"
}
"priority": "0"
}

Leads can be closed by specifying an outcome and optionally a closing value and closing time. API clients should use the findLead_Outcomes() to retrieve a list of possible outcomes.

"lead": {
"outcome": {
"id": "1",
"entityType": "Lead_Outcomes",
"rev": "0",
"type": 10,
"description": "Won"
},
"closedTime": "2011-03-13T14:53:27-05:00", // optional. ATOM/rfc3339 format

To set the lead as pending, pass a true value as isPending.

"lead": {
"isPending": true
}

Multiple outcomes of the same type can be configured company-wide in the Nutshell Setup interface. Outcome types:

10 = Won
11 = Lost
12 = Cancelled

To reopen a lead, set the status to 0

To change the stage a lead is in, pass in the ID of the milestone to move the lead to. (NOTE: milestone is the Nutshell API term for a stage) All milestones can be retrieved with the findMilestones() method.

"lead": {
"milestoneId": 1
}

To change the pipeline a lead is in, pass in the ID of the stageset to move the lead to. (NOTE: stageset is the Nutshell API term for a pipeline) All pipelines can be retrieved with the findStagesets() method.

"lead": {
"stagesetId": 1
}

To specify the lead as hot, set the priority to 1

You can upload files to the lead by adding sparse objects to the "file" property. See https://developers.nutshell.com/#files for more information on uploading and downloading files
