Anyone getting this error below using Postman to add events to sessions?

{    "name": "Bad Request",    "message": ["Invalid parameter: name", "Invalid parameter: day", "Invalid parameter: time_begin", "Invalid parameter: time_end", "Invalid parameter: timezone"],    "code": 1002,    "status": 400}

 

Postman Body:

{

"name": "{{Event Name}}",

"day": "{{Event Date}}",

"description": "",

"time_begin":"{{Event Start Time}}",

"time_end": "{{Event End Time}}",

"timezone": "{{Time Zones}}",

"id_classroom" : null,

"webinar_tool": "custom"

}

    Which endpoint are you using? Also, is that the structure of the json payload you are using?

    Take a look at the body schema for the API endpoint to ensure the values you are using are in the correct format. Otherwise you would receive those errors.

    ​@pmckay I usually get those errors when I have data in the incorrect format for the API. For dates, most endpoints require the following format: “YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS,” So if you have any time zone data or the string for the date has the “YYYY-MM_DDTHH:MM:SS-TimeZone: or you don’t have seconds, it will throw that error.
