I think CRM-10684, a closed issue, is not fixed (completely). What should I do?

Hi all,

Issue CRM-10684 (Relationship API "get" op doesn't return custom data if custom group extends specific relationship type) is marked as closed on the issue tracker, but I think this problem is not completely fixed.

If I create a custom field that is e.g. only extending the child-of-relationship, and I try to get a child-of-relationship with a value for this field using the API, it does not return the custom value if I explicitely specify the custom field (in my case custom_7) as a field to return.

So I guess this issue might be only partially solved.

What should I do next? Should I open a new issue on the issue tracker? Or is there a way to re-open the old one?

Thank you,
Johan

OK, this partially me being stupid (as usual . My API user didn't have the permissions to access the custom fields.

But the problem with the fields to return, is still valid.

Dear johanv,

If I've understood you right, then you just need to be told that in order to get custom fields that are attached to a specific type, then you have to include that type ID.

For example, if you have custom fields attached to relationship type id 2 then in your API call you must include:

relationship_type_id => 2

Hope that helps!
