Hi,

Ok this should be easy.

I've got a contribution ID on the hook_civicrm_post:

I'm doing the add API call from Contribution.php and I'm sending in this:

Code: [Select]

Array
(
    [id] => 726
    [custom_24] => mycustomreferralinfo
)

I'm getting this back:

Code: [Select]

Array
(
    [is_error] => 1
    [error_message] => Required fields not found for contribution contact_id
)

Documentation http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Contribution+APIs says:

Parameters:

'params' (array) array of name-value for contribution
for updating contribution record pass contribution id in array like $params['id']

For retrieving the contribution, I used with civicrm_contribution_get:

Code: [Select]

Array
(
    [contribution_id] => 726
)

Which retrieved the correct contribution.

Is total value supposed to be be a required field?
It then asked for contact_id.
Then contribution_type_id...

I'm getting the feeling it thinks I'm adding a contribution instead of updating one...

Is that possible?

yes, seems like the required params check is not differentiating between an update and a insert

would be great if you can take a look at the code: api/v2/Contribution.php and provide a patch. Ping us on IRC if you need help getting started

Ok, I'm giving it a look.

IRC? I'm not particularly familiar with the protocols of patching and IRCing.
