API Address Post for Constituent and Parents

Lindsey Bryant

Good morning,

I have executed the API Post of “User Address Create” located in the SKY API guide through Postman (Sample below)

{
"city": "string",
"country": "string",
"line_one": "string",
"line_two": "string",
"line_three": "string",
"mailing_address": true,
"postal_code": "string",
"primary": true,
"province": "string",
"region": "string",
"state": "string",
"type_id": 0,
"user_id": 0,
"links": [
{
"type_id": 0,
"primary": true,
"shared": true,
"shared_relationship": "string",
"shared_user": "string",
"type": "string",
"user_id": 0
}
]
}

On the link array, I have included my information with the intentions that the address would be linked between my test record and my record. When I look at the test record, the address has been created successfully. However, when I look at my record, it is not listed. I must click through the UI to add a new address and it's there that I now have the option to select the address.

My overall questions are:

1.Is there a way to post an address for the student and then link it to the appropriate records already created in a single API call? If not, is there a subsequent API call that needs to be executed to link them together.

2.Is there a way to link the addresses between two records and not create a duplicate record?

3. Does the order have to be create the Constituent, their address, their phone number. Then create the relationships, their address, their phone number, then link them accordingly?

Thank you,

Lindsey Bryant
