I just got myself in a muddle using UFJoin api because it doesn't defaut to 'is_active' - which would seem to be intuitive. Not sure whether to set this default in the BAO or API but if the latter perhaps we should introduce functions like

_civicrm_api3_uf_join_create_defaults(){

}


or

_civicrm_api3_uf_join_defaults($action){

}

as a tidy place to put them?

And would you vote for the create function calling them where they exist or civicrm_api doing a

if (function_exists($defaultfnName) && empty($params['id'){
array_merge($defaultfnName(),$params);
}

OK

Implemented.

This will work across the API with the _ prefix & _defaults suffix

/*
 * Set defaults used for 'create' action
 * @return array $defaults array of default values
*/

function _civicrm_api3_address_create_defaults(){
  return array('is_primary' => 1);
}
