Tiny but very annoying bug when inserting dynamic columns into HTTP requests Recorded video here: https://www.loom.com/share/3e4e3905f2214d4faa8a298024341bbe?sid=2441602f-df3c-4006-96fe-7023c77a27eb
As of October 2024, there's an important requirement when using dynamic variables in HTTP API requests: you must enclose dynamic string variables in quotation marks.When using dynamic variables with /column
, follow these JSON formatting rules:** String variables must be enclosed in quotes
** Number variables don't need quotes (except for numbers with trailing zeros like "0004")
* Boolean values don't need quotesIf you need to combine plain text with a dynamic column tag, first create a Formula column to combine them, then include that column (with quotes) in your body tag.For more details about this change, you can watch our explanatory video here: video
