Attribute in customers

[Stefan Hult]

Hi

One of our customers has got problems with an integration that has been in operation for over a year now.

In the code, it retrieves a customer with a special attribute value.
We send the following url and get a response 200 back, but with a blank body.

API/controller/api/v1/customer?attributes={"OLDCUSTNO":"4510008922"}

These suddenly apply to almost all customers. When tested of 1000 customers we got a hit on 80 of them!
This is what the attribute looks like on the customer record.

"attributes": [
{
"id": "NETS", "value": "945643725"
},
{
"id": "OLDCUSTNO", "value": "4510008922"
}
],

Any suggestions?

Hi Stefan, FYI, https://community.visma.com/t5/News-in-Developers-Visma-net/Release-Notes-Visma-Net-API-9-60-0-23-08...

Summary:

1) Created a New Attribute > Customer Class > Assigned the attribute to that customer class
2) POST New Customer > Assign Attribute Value 

{
    "name": {
        "value": "API - Attribute 05"
    },
    "overrideWithClassValues": true,
    "customerClassId": {
        "value": "5"
    },
    "attributeLines": [
        {
            "attributeId": {
                "value": "NEWCUSTNO"
            },
            "attributeValue": {
                "value": "txt1"
            }
        }
    ]
}

3) Make a GET Request > Filtering Parameter is only "Attribute" {"NEWCUSTNO":"txt1"} 

https://integration.visma.net/API/controller/api/v1/customer?attributes=%7B%22NEWCUSTNO%22%3A%22txt1%22%7D

3.1) Empty Array Response []

4) Adding "PageNumber" to the request filtering parameter 
4.1) Customer with the attribute matching is retrieved.

Workaround: Adding PageNumber & PageSize to the GET - Parameters 

Status: This has been registered as a bug and conveyed to the development team. We will provide further updates as more information is available.

Hi
Any news about the problem. I tested it today and it is still the same.
The customer starts to panic. The application handles customer payments and imports about 500 a day. They can't handle it manually.
Is there any more information needed to troubleshoot?

Thanks Yildrim

These are not new attributes, has been used for several years now.

Hello, we're currently investigating this. 

- How attribute values have been assigned ? Are those new Attributes & values ?
