Hi @PBSA ,

Are you testing the endpoint with a custom screen or a default screen? Could you please share a screenshot of the screen to show how the action was created?

Hi @PBSA,

I would recommend using default endpoint or extend the default endpoint to customize it. Is there any specific reason to create a new custom endpoint? 

@jinin It points to the default Sales Quote screen CR304500:

@Vignesh Ponnusamy I believe there is no default endpoint for Sales Quotes. Per your suggestion I did try adding a SalesQuote entity to a new extended default endpoint:
 

Here is the result from Postman:

}

I tried the same request I just posted (just clicked Send again in Postman, no changes anywhere) and got a diffferent error:

    }

}

In the UI, I can see that Set As Primary is not disabled:

And when I click it in the UI, it does work (and the Set As Primary button does become disabled):

The Postman request continues to send the “Set As Primary button is disabled” error while this quote is already Primary. It returned that error for a while, but when I checked back, it returned to the initial error. I am beginning to think the problem is something to do with the keys I am sending in the body not being received correctly. Is there another way I should be sending them? You can see from the commented out “id” line I have tried sending the quote GUID without success. Should the keys instead be in the URL in some capacity?

Hi @PBSA ,

Could you please add the fields from the quote summary, as shown below, to the sales quote and try again?

@jinin I had some there already (key fields at least) but here I’ve added all the fields in the Quote Summary:
 

I can GET the quote using a url like: entity/Default_QuoteTest/23.200.001/SalesQuote/102272/1000001. I can also GET it with entity/Default_QuoteTest/23.200.001/SalesQuote/a8d6a130-25d5-4702-87cf-1ad24619a61f

But I still get the original error:

Thank you for suggesting. I’m sorry it still isn’t working.

Hi @PBSA ,

Please try the request below. I checked on my end, and it’s working fine for me.
 

Method: POST
URL: /entity/DefaultExtn/22.200.001/SalesQuote/PrimaryQuote
Request:
{

    "entity": {

        "OpportunityID": {

            "value": "OP000399"

        },

        "QuoteNbr": {

            "value": "Q000020"

        }

    }

}

 

@jinin Thank you so much for proving the problem was not with the endpoint - I do not have any working examples so did not know where to look. Given your example and help I was able to isolate an issue in a customization that allows manual quote numbers to be specified when they are sent via API:

protected override string GetNewNumberSymbol()
    {
        // Checks graph instance to determine if from API call
        if(_Graph.IsContractBasedAPI)
        {
            // When AutoNumberAttribute NullMode is set to 'UserNumbering'
            // And GetNewNumberSymbol() returns an empty string
            // Attributes RowPersisting event will not override field with AutoNumber value
            NullMode = NullNumberingMode.UserNumbering;
            // when this is base.NullString I get System.NullReferenceException trying to set quote as primary via API  - PBSA
            //return base.NullString;
            return null;
        }
        return base.GetNewNumberSymbol();
    }

After commenting out the return base.NullString line and replacing it with the return null line, I was able to make quotes primary via REST API. I would never have found this issue without your help, thank you!
