I need to update the pick list's options using data provided by others forms' answers. I know that I can use the iForm builder API, but it expects an Access Token to validade the request. My problem is to create it, I'm sending a request to https://plantec.iformbuilder.com/exzact/api/oauth/token and I'm getting the following error: '406 Not Acceptable'
What could I do to solve this problem? Thx

  Hi there, you need to make sure you are passing all the parameters in correctly and using the POST method in order to get an Access Token.

  Without seeing the rest of your request to get an access token it would be difficult to say where you went wrong.

  Just to +1 this, I am also looking to accomplish the same process as the OP.

  Hi Benjamin, this is most certainly doable. Are you running into any trouble?

  Tony! - I have had some success leveraging the iForm API through the POSTMAN api service - however I am new to the world of api calls, so I'm not sure how to take use a GET request and extract the data that I need and then use a POST to update the existing pick list. Any help would be much appreciated!

  Hey Ben, you would need some additional code to handle the response you get from the POSTman examples and then turn around to call the Option List API with the relevant data. Can you help me understand the what you are trying to achieve and perhaps we can come up with an example for you to review.

  Hey,

  We are  planning on migrating our system which is currently using an old iFormBuilder API version  4.5.  Now i can see the documentation related to migrating iFormBuilder API from 5.1 to 6.

  Can you please advice or share the documentation on  what would have changed from API version 4.x to 5.0 So that we are mindful when migrating the iFormBuilder version from 4.5 to 6.0

  Thanks

  Hey Sudheer,

  4.5 version and 5.1 version are very similar except that 5.1 added more endpoints. If you follow the migration guide for 5.1 to 6.0 you should be able to go: https://iformbuilder.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000555551-API-5-1-to-6-0-Migration-Guide

  If you run into any trouble during the migration please come to us through the live chat at the bottom right corner on our website and we will be there to help you!
