Updating asset text type metadata via API

Hello,

I have a problem with the Bynder API to update an asset metaproperty of type text.

I am able to update the name, the description and the select-type metaproperties. But i cannot update my text-type metaproperty. I try :

  1. {‘metaproperty.id’: ‘my text’}
  2. {‘metaproperty_name’: ‘my text’}

Both return a 202 response : “{"message":"Accepted","statuscode":202}” but the asset is not updated.

When I try :

       {‘name’: ‘Mon document’, ‘metaproperty.id’: ‘my text’}

Only the name is updated.

 

Somebody, I have an idea ?

​@Tatiana Fischer  You can use the API to update a metaproperty's text - please reference the API Documentation.

The data string is limited to these fields:

Thanks for your replies.

​@Catherine L : I doesn’t want to modify a metaproperty with “https://{your-bynder-domain}/api/v4/metaproperties/{id}” but modify a metaproperty value in the asset with “https://{your-bynder-domain}/api/v4/media/{id}” (or other method).
