We have some other custom-field questions you might want to browse as well!
Awesome, that's a nice pointer. Knowing what to look for is always helpful Let me see if that's enough to solve this issue.
Thanks for the quick response
Ok @seven1m, I was able to get the custom field Id, query it for a given profile and get the expected value. Thanks for the pointers, those proved really helpful.
However, I'd like to pull this field for every profile in the system. I'm concerned about API limits. Is there any way I can batch the requests? (ie. given a list of people ids, get a list of responses back)
Sure, you can change the URL so it isn't scoped by person, like this:
https://api.planningcenteronline.com/people/v2/field_data?where[field_definition_id]=123
Wow you are a savior!!
I'm getting a response that contains a list of elements like the one below:
{
"type": "FieldDatum",
"id": "<id>",
"attributes": {
"file": {
"url": null
},
"file_content_type": null,
"file_name": null,
"file_size": null,
"value": "04/07/2019"
},
"relationships": {
"field_definition": {
"data": {
"type": "FieldDefinition",
"id": "<id>"
}
},
"customizable": {
"data": {
"type": "Person",
"id": "<id>"
}
}
}
Sorry for the dumb question but at this stage I want to be extra cautious: Is it fair to assume that if I get a customizable
relationship of type
Person
, its id
will point to a valid Person record?
Yes, that is correct. I'm closing this issue, but let us know if you have any further questions!
Once again, thank you very much for your help!

Describe the question We are developing an internal solution to extract data from your product. We found both the API and the API documentation very helpful for this 🥳. We keep track of the baptism date and join date in a custom tab in the people product (see an example below) Is there a way we can programatically pull these fields?
Thanks in advance
