Using a POST request with this JSON for a new row gives a 400 error about the Stage field. Adjust your payload as follows:

{
  "container": {"list_id": "abcd1234"},
  "fields": {
    "Title": {"text": "Achieve"},
    "Score": {"number": 10},
    "Stage": {"select": {"option": "Completed"}}
  }
}

Based on my experience working with the Notion API, I learned that precise JSON structure is crucial when modifying fields like Status. At first I encountered a similar error because the field wasn’t correctly defined, and I eventually discovered that ensuring the field name and its nested type matched exactly what Notion expected was the key. I had to review official documentation to determine the proper payload structure, which highlighted some nuances that may not be immediately obvious. Consistent testing and validation have been essential in troubleshooting these issues, and I can confirm that carefully matching the schema resolves the error.

i got it working by trial and error. replacing field names and types like using ‘status’ instead of ‘Stage’ sometimes did the trick. small typos or misassignments can break it so double-check carefully. hope this helps!
