Additional fields update using API or data injection plugin

[mareban]

Hello,

We've created a tab called "technical services" in Computers with several fields (criticality, support level, location, ....) mostly using dropdown list (select and multi-select) ! These fields are tags in Vsphere and Azure , but we would like to have them in GLPI as well.

Is there a way to update these fields using API instead of manual fill-in , is there other method like using data injection plugin to try to fill these fields using automation please ?

Thanks for your help

PS : we are using GLPI 10.0.10 and additional fields 1.20.6

Hi @mareban,
You can find the ID of the custom fields using there endpoint:
get -> https://{{GLPI URL}}/apirest.php/listSearchOptions/{{itemType}}

Eg: https://{{GLPI URL}}/apirest.php/listSearchOptions/Change

You will get the ID and name of the field.

Eg:

    "76723": {
        "name": "custom field name",
        "table": "glpi_plugin_fields_changemudancas",
        "field": "notificaofield",
        "datatype": "specific",
        "nosearch": false,
        "nodisplay": false,
        "available_searchtypes": [
            "contains",
            "notcontains"
        ],
        "uid": "Change.PluginFieldsChangemudanca.plugin_fields_mtododeimplamentaofielddropdowns_id"

After that, you can just use the PUT/POST method to update the data.

eg:

{
  "input" :{
    "changes_id": 39,
    "notificaofield":  "0"
  }
}
