Trying to add a task to a Notion database with an API call. JSON issues occur with formatting and property definitions. Check out the new JSON snippet below:
{
"parent": { "type": "database_id", "db_id": "DEF456" },
"properties": {
"TaskName": {
"type": "title",
"title": [{ "type": "text", "text": { "content": "New Task" } }]
},
"TaskStatus": {
"type": "select",
"select": { "name": "To Do" }
}
}
}
Any suggestions?
hey, try replacin ‘db_id’ with ‘database_id’. i had a simlar issue cuz of wrong key, check your payload formatting and docs. hope that helps!
The issue might be related to subtle discrepancies in field naming conventions and JSON schema expectations in the Notion API. I encountered a similar problem when my properties did not match what Notion expected. Careful scrutiny of the API documentation helped me realize that even minor changes in the parent or property keys could lead to failures in data insertion. In my experience, validating the entire JSON payload with a tool or checking recent API updates often reveals discrepancies that may be causing the errors in the payload.
