We are unable to update appeal on a Gift

Mona Coulavin

we are using the REST API to update appeal on Gift and we are using this endpoint.

PATCH https://api.sky.blackbaud.com/gift/v1/gifts/{gift_id}

Body:

{"gift_splits": [ {"appeal_id": "5112"}]}

https://developer.sky.blackbaud.com/docs/services/58bdd5edd7dcde06046081d6/operations/GetOrCreateGiftCustomFieldCategory

The endpoint returns 200 which indicates a successful call but the appeal on the record is not updated.

Hi @Mona Coulavin - I might be missing something, the https://api.sky.blackbaud.com/gift/v1/gifts/{giftid} endpoint doesn't appear to take “gift_splits” as an input property. Can you please confirm the endpoint you are calling to update the appeal?

Hi, we are using the REST API to update appeal on Gift and we are using this endpoint.

PATCH https://api.sky.blackbaud.com/gift/v1/gifts/{gift_id}

Body:

{"gift_splits": [ {"appeal_id": "5112"}]}

Can you please tell me what endpoint we should be using to update the appeal id if this is not correct?

Thanks so much!

Hello Mona,

The PATCH endpoint does not have the ability at this time to take a gift_splits update. We are currently tracking the need/desire for it here.

Hi Anthony,

I'm on Mona's team. Does this mean we won't be able to update any gift's appeal ID?

I'm currently trying with this path: PATCH https://api.sky.blackbaud.com/nxt-data-integration/v1/re/appeals/{id}

It takes the correct appeal system record ID and returns 200 but does not update the value in the gift…
