Upfluence API integration: problems with custom field mapping?
we're trying to leverage the Upfluence API for some advanced custom reporting, specifically pulling in data from custom fields.
the main hurdle is reliaby mapping complex, multi-value custom fields via the API without running into data structure inconsistencies or truncation, which impacts our overall data synchronization efforts.
has anyone found a robust method or specific API endpoint handling for these scenarios? anyone faced this before?

Answered 1 week agoHey Alexander Brown, dealing with multi-value custom fields via API can be a real headache, right? For Upfluence, the most robust method usually involves carefully reviewing their API documentation for `custom field definitions` and ensuring your `API data synchronization` logic is built to correctly parse arrays or nested objects, not just simple strings, to avoid truncation. What kind of data type are these fields currently returning in your raw API responses?
