The solution (or workaround) is to call updateContact($contact_id) method but instead of just putting id of contact you can add '/custom-fields' string concatenated to it like this:

$response = $getresponse->updateContact($contactId . '/custom-fields', $params);

Hi

You should use method updateContact as in @kovinet example. updateContact as a first param requires contact id as a string. In your example it's an array.

Try something like this:

$result = (array)$getresponse->getContacts(array(
    'query' => array(
        'email' => 'example@gmail.com',
    ),
    'fields' => 'name,email,campaign,,'
));

$contactId = $result['0']->contactId;;

$response = $getresponse->updateContact(
    $contact_id . '/custom-fields',
    array(
    'customFieldValues' => array(
            array('customFieldId' => CfId',
                'value' => array(
                    'test2'
                )),
             array('customFieldId' => ‘CfId',
                'value' => array(
                    'test03'
                ))
        )
    )
);

BTW, this library is no longer supported and maintained. The new one is on the way.

With the most recent API (v3?) In order to add custom fields when creating a new contact, you need to enclose the array of customFieldValues in an array! Crazy stuff! Here's what i've ended up doing: $json_object = array( "campaign" => array( "campaignId" => "A" ), "email"=>$email, 'customFieldValues' => array(array( 'customFieldId' => 'u', 'value' => array('free') )) );

There might be a better way but I've had no response from GetResponse's support team. HTH someone... took me ages to find (onstackoverflow in the end!)
