Title says it all. I've been trying to get this sorted and working. I can use a get statement of https://api.sky.blackbaud.com/constituent/v1/constituents/{constituent_id}/fundraiserassignments but unable to send a patch (or any other request) back to that with an updated "fundraiser_id" and "start" date. Has anyone been able to get something like this working? I appreciate any help/suggestions/thoughts I can get!

    after the get, you need to use the assignment id to make the PATCH call, what field from the GET you are using to make the PATCH call?

    Hey @Alex Wong Thanks for the suggestion. I checked that PATCH call and I don't the parameter that I'm hoping to update. For example, for this test user that I sent my GET call to, I get the following result (this includes inactive being set to true):

    {"count":2,"value":[{"id":"193013","constituent_id":"146827","fundraiser_id":"144249","start":"2026-02-10T00:00:00"},{"id":"193012","constituent_id":"146827","end":"2026-02-10T00:00:00","fundraiser_id":"146489","start":"2026-02-10T00:00:00"}]}

    If in Monday.com I have Person 1 (fundraiser_id: 144249) set as assigned, but want to reassign to Person 2 (fundraiser_id: 146827), I need to have an "end" date added to Person 1's info and to have Person 2's info clear the "end" date and adjust the "start" date - or - have a new POST for Person 2 with a "start" and open end date.

    I've been combing through the API Reference pages to figure out the best way to cross reference/edit but haven't found quite what I'm looking for yet. Hope some of the info above may help you to better determine what I'm looking for! Happy Friday.

    As Alex mentioned, you'll need to use the assignment ID to make changes to existing fundraising assignments. In the output of your GET call, the assignment ID is just called "id" (193013 for the first result, 193012 for the second).

    To make changes to an existing assignment, use the PATCH endpoint (note that we're using the Fundraising API here, not the Constituent API):

    https://api.sky.blackbaud.com/fundraising/v1/fundraisers/assignments/{assignment_id}

    (Documentation)

    To create a new assignment, use the POST endpoint (also in the Fundraising API):

    https://api.sky.blackbaud.com/fundraising/v1/fundraisers/assignments

    Ben and Alex! Thank you both. Alex was right from the beginning, but I didn't understand that the id pulled would be the same value for using as the assignment_id. My script was updated and I was able to get successful updates after changing the assigned user in Monday. I appreciate you both.
