How do you structure the payload to do a POST for user specific data.
I want to create a new thing “Account” associated to an existing user
The field is called Creator and is of type User. Do you send the user id, do you send the user as an object?
I’ve tried Creator and createdBy
Nothing allows you to associate the user id to the record you are trying to create.:‘Unrecognized field: Creator’
The field “Created by” register the user that is creating the record in your database.
And when I say “User” I mean, “logged user”. So if you are creating something dynamically, using a POST, outside Bubble, there is no user to associate with. So this field will be blank. Also, you cant modify this field for security reasons.
Thanks for the response. I guess that means you cannot use the Data API to create something associated to an existing user. That is unfortunate.
What you can do is create you own “Created by” field, because THIS field, you can edit.
You can have a field called “Created By [2]”.
So for your app, use this field insted of the native “Created by”.
It will work and A LOT of users are doing this.
Would the field be the User object or the User id?
It is better to use the user as an object if you can.
