list.single_line_text_field Post?

[Chris_Sydney]

Hey There, 

Wondering if anyone has any guidance... I am sending the below payload to the following URL, but seem to be getting a bad request error. namespace and key are correct, as it the type.

https://{{store_name}}.myshopify.com/admin/api/{{api_version}}/variants/{{variant_id}}/metafields.json

{
        "metafield": {
            "namespace": "theme",
            "key": "highlight",
            "value": ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"],
            "type": "list.single_line_text_field"
        }
}

Hey @Chris_Sydney 

I think the payload has to include the variant ID, e.g.:

{"variant":
  {
    "id":808950810,
    "metafields": [
      {"key":"new","value":"newvalue", etc.. }
    ]
  }
}

Let me know if you get stuck!

{{ "metafield": { "namespace": "theme", "key": "highlight", "value": "[\"Sunday\", \"Monday\", \"Tuesday\", \"Wednesday\", \"Thursday\", \"Friday\", \"Saturday\"]", "type": "list.single_line_text_field" } }

thanks, yeah I kind of landing on this, I need to write the payload before it sent via the admin API.

[Deepaksharma023]

curl --location --request POST 'https://test-store.myshopify.com/admin/api/2024-01/products/1234/metafields.json' \

--header 'x-shopify-access-token: c422350d7c54ea0ef161ebb656test' \

--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

--data-raw '{

"metafield": {

"namespace": "test_namespace",

"key": "test_key",

"value": "[\"111\",\"222\",\"333\",\"444\",\"555\"]",

"type": "list.single_line_text_field"

}

}'
