How to PATCH / PUT campaign via API?

[Dominik Piekarski]

Hello, I try to PATCH a campaign field (e.g. subject). But it results in an "Internal server error" when using swagger API. The result is also the same for PUT method.

Any suggestions?

Could you share the logs from your Keila instance?

[Dominik Piekarski]

Where can I find the logs? I'm not into Elexir app architecture...

[Philipp]

How are you running Keila? The logs are outputted to stdout by the application when you run it.

I'm running it in the docker container. Found the logs:

I have also double-checked on campaigns index the given id exists.

Best regards

Could you try providing {"settings": {}} as part of the campaign object? This might fix the issue for now until I'm able to add a proper fix.

[Dominik Piekarski]

Yes, providing "settings": {}" attribute allows saving (although settings will reset to settings: {type: text}) - but works for me now.
