Creating relationships between phone numbers/emails and relationships

Daniel Oh

Hello, we're building out an API connection between our system and Raiser's Edge, and can't seem to find a way to create a relationship between phone numbers or emails and relationships. I can see that there is a way to link them to constituents, but not relationships.

API reference to phone numbers for reference:

@Daniel Oh I have not done this specifically, but even the relationship records (non-constituent) have system record ids so I would think it is a matter of getting that id once the relationship is created to add the phone/email information. Tagging a few others for their thoughts @Alex Wong @Glen Hutson @Ashley Moose @Ben Regier

It is as Dan said, non-constituent record is a “constituent record” in a sense, where you can actually go to their record on RE NXT. A relationship created that isn't link to a constituent record is consider a non-constituent relationship record. Since this type of record does allow contact info to be added, you can use the create email API endpoint to POST using the constituent system record id of the non-constituent record to create an email.
