Create contact using REST API error :: {"message": "General error" }

[Matthew_Beeston]

Hi @Deep_Sleep_Test,

I had a similar issue with creating contacts and my solution was to format the email_addresses field differently.
Maybe give that a try and see if it gets you any further.

{
	"email_addresses": {
		"0": {
			"email": "divyesh7@softsages.com",
			"field": "EMAIL1"
		}
	}
}

Create contact with SDK and REST not working

I found an answer after rereading @Andrew_Johnson’s post and finding this post in the forums: In my case the email_addresses field needed to be a multidimensional array. I corrected my code to produce the following output: { "email_addresses": { "0": { "email": "name@email.com", "field": "EMAIL1" } } } It would be extremely helpful if somewhere between the SDK and the API could give more detailed feedback as to which element of the input is invalid.
