API - Updating Orders

Andrew Macdonald

I am using the Api and I can get and order and update the Internal Order Notes and that works. Can also update the Order Status.

Now trying to create a sticky note and update the picked quantity on an Order Line but these values do not get updated.

Is this possible ?

If so what is wrong with my code below ?

 

      var netoStore = GetStoreManager();

      var filter = new GetOrderFilter(id);

      Order[] order = netoStore.Orders.GetOrder(filter);

 

      Order[] updatedOrder = new Order[] {

        new Order {

          OrderID = order[0].OrderID,           

          OrderStatus = "Pick",

          StickyNotes = order[0].StickyNotes,

          OrderLine = order[0].OrderLine,

          InternalOrderNotes = order[0].InternalOrderNotes

        }

      };

 

      var stickyNote = new StickyNotes();

      stickyNote.Title = "Test 1";

      stickyNote.Description = "Test description";

 

      updatedOrder[0].StickyNotes.Add(stickyNote);

 

      updatedOrder[0].OrderLine[0].PickQuantity = 50;

      updatedOrder[0].OrderLine[0].QuantityShipped = 60;

 

      updatedOrder[0].InternalOrderNotes += "Test 1";

 

      var result = netoStore.Orders.UpdateOrder(updatedOrder);

Not all fields can be updated on orders. The line items in particular are very limited. For example, PickQuantity is not available. Make sure you follow the docs:

Neto's API can be... quirky. I'd suggest dumping out the actual JSON/XML your code is producing and checking it very carefully against the docs. I'd say you aren't formatting the Sticky Notes array correctly. Do not expect the API to be the typical clean, consistent REST API you're used to. I always simulate requests in something like Postman before even attempting the code so I know exactly what to expect.
